Prerequisites:  
- You must have valid API authentication credentials: `auth-userid` and `api-key`.  
- You must know the `order-id` of the SSL Certificate order to delete.  

Steps:  
1) Prepare a POST request to the API endpoint:  
   ```
   https://test.httpapi.com/api/sslcert/delete.xml
   ```  
2) Include the following parameters in the query string or request body:  
   - `auth-userid` (Integer): Your authentication user ID (required).  
   - `api-key` (String): Your API key (required).  
   - `order-id` (Integer): The ID of the SSL Certificate order to delete (required).  
3) Send the POST request to the API.  
4) Review the response, which returns a hash map with the status of the deletion action.  

Summary:  
You can delete an SSL Certificate order via a POST API call by providing your authentication credentials and the specific order ID; the API responds with the status of the deletion.
