You "call" functions. You "declare" classes and resources. Ultimately, these function calls and class and resource declarations collectively result in the production of a "catalog" describing the configuration properties that must be ensured and a set of relationships among them that influence the order in which those properties must be synchronized. Puppet synchronizes the target machine state with the catalog in a manner and order it chooses, subject to the constraints of the ordering relationships in the catalog. So yes, Puppet has ways to direct the relative order of application of classes and resources. The Puppet language reference has a whole section discussing the details <https://docs.puppet.com/puppet/5.0/lang_relationships.html>, and you should read it. Be sure to select the manual version corresponding to the Puppet version you are using. While you're at it, you may want to read the rest of the language reference, too.
