Subject Converting to SP
Author Venus Software Operations
Hi all

In view of my recent thread I was wanting to convert a SQL suggested to
me by Jose into a SP. I tried the below code but I get an error that
SUSPEND is token unknown. I have tried to put and remove ; in the SQL
and the SUSPEND command, also the command itself, but no joy.

One more thing is that, this particular SP returns just one row of data
/ value. But there is also another that would returns multiple rows of
data what might be different in such a situation when writing this.

Please advise

Kind regards

CREATE PROCEDURE FIFOValuation
( tiItemID ID, tbCurrStock QTY )

BEGIN
SELECT SUM(qty * bRate) AS bValuation
FROM (SELECT IIF(bQty + qtyOut >= :tbCurrStock /*current stock */
, (:tbCurrStock /*current stock */ - qtyOut)

PurchaseBillInner.iID = PurchaseBillItemInner.iPID

WHERE (qtyOut <= :tbCurrStock /*current stock */)) AS
