Price Change while creating a shopping cart

Question

Dear Srm Guru's
We are in SRM 4.0 and following a classic scenarios.
While creating a shopping cart  the price in the shopping cart is picked up from the price which we upload through EBP_GET_BACKEND_PRICES
If there is a variation in the price can we change the price while creating the shopping cart. Currently the field is in display mode what settings should we make that it allows a change of price while creation of shopping cart.

Nimish,
for this you have to change the standard code.
In screen communication structures, there is a flag "price_changeable" that controls the edit mode of price field.
You have to change the standard logic to implement your behaviour in FORM price_changable_set from include LBBP_SC_APPF92:
  IF es_item-mode EQ gc_display OR
    ( es_item-rfq_ind EQ gc_yes AND es_item-price IS INITIAL ).
    CLEAR: es_item-price_changeable.
  ELSE.
    IF NOT es_item-catalogid IS INITIAL OR
       es_item-price_origin EQ c_price_origin_f OR
       iv_scenario EQ c_sc_generic_soco OR
       iv_scenario EQ c_sc_generic_history OR
       iv_scenario EQ c_sc_generic_workload OR
       ( es_item-price NE es_item-gross_price AND
         NOT es_item-price IS INITIAL ).
      CLEAR: es_item-price_changeable.
    ELSE.
      es_item-price_changeable = gc_yes.
    ENDIF.
  ENDIF.
