ACTUAL BEHAVIOR  
---------------
The Pricing Call is Failing when the Profile Option 'QP_BYPASS_PRICING' is set to 'Y'.  You have a requirement to call the Process Order API oe_order_pub.process_order to update the config_header_id and config_rev_nbr on the model line.  During this call the users would like to By pass the Pricing Calls since you have  custom logic to derive the unit selling price and Price List and pass the same to the Process Order API later in the Process.

OBSERVATION
-------------------
To Achieve this, you set the Profile option ''QP_BYPASS_PRICING'  to 'Y' before calling the Process Order API.  But when the Process Order API is called, the Pricing Call Fails as the x_return_status is assigned the value ‘BYPASS_PRICING’ which is 14 Characters.

But in the Calling API oe_order_adj_pvt.price_line, the variable 'l_return_status ' is declared as VARCHAR2(10) which is causing the pricing call Fails.

ERROR
-----------------------
Custom Package : oe_order_adj_pvt.price_line
Version: 120.13.12010000.14
The variable l_return_status declared as VARCHAR2 (10).This variable is passed to the Other QP APIs This is causing the Pricing API to error and hence the Process Order API is failing.

Debug is showing the following error
INITIALIZE_CONSTANTS Exception E_BYPASS_PRICING..
INITIALIZE_CONSTANTS Exception E_BYPASS_PRICING..l_routine: QP_PREQ_PUB.Initialize_Constants

STEPS
-----------------------

2. Created a customize qp_preq_pub
3. The out variable x_return_status is assigned the value ‘BYPASS_PRICING’ which is 14 Characters.
