Subject "Function Unknown" How to utilize Stored Procedures return value in a SELECT statement?
Author Namit Nathwani
Hi all

I have a stored procedure as below. The return value of the stored
procedure I want to use in the SELECT statement of mine. Currently I have
tried to utilize it this way and I receive an error stating that the
"Function Unknown OSACCTDRAMT". Upper Lower case of the function name does
not seem to be a problem.

SELECT OSAcctDrAmt(s.bDrAmt, uf.bDr, uf.bCr) AS bBalDr
FROM tAccountsJV t
JOIN sAccountsJV s
ON s.iPID = t.iID
AND s.iAcctID = 485
LEFT JOIN uOSAccounts uf
ON uf.iPID = t.iID
OR uf.iSID = t.iID ;

The Stored Procedure is as follows;

SET TERM ^ ;

CREATE PROCEDURE OSACCTDRAMT (
BDRAMT DOUBLE PRECISION,
BDR DOUBLE PRECISION,
BCR DOUBLE PRECISION)
RETURNS (
BOSDRAMT DOUBLE PRECISION)
AS
begin
bOSDrAmt = CASE WHEN (bDrAmt > 0 AND bCr > 0) THEN bDrAmt - bCr
WHEN (bDrAmt > 0 AND bDr > 0) THEN bDrAmt - bDr
WHEN (bDr IS NULL AND bCr IS NULL) THEN bDrAmt
ELSE 0 END ;

suspend;
end
^

SET TERM ; ^

GRANT EXECUTE ON PROCEDURE OSACCTDRAMT TO SYSDBA;
