JR59384: Orderitem price override is not copied to the new merged cart

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• During logon, order item price override is not copied to the new
  merged cart.
  
  For example, a registered shopper adds a product (A) into the
  cart that has a base price of $100. Shopper also modifies the
  item (addons) and this becomes $150 for product A.
  
  Then the shopper logs off without placing the order and adds
  some other product (B) to the cart. Then logs in back, this
  would
  trigger a merge cart. But the registered shopper's product A
  (which should be $150) is copied to the guest shopper's order
  cart with new orderitem_id and the price of product A is reset
  to original $100.
