Calling a stored procedure in Oracle with IN and OUT parameters

Solution 1:

If you set the server output in ON mode before the entire code, it works, otherwise put_line() will not work. Try it!

The code is,

set serveroutput on;
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE PROC1(invoicenr IN NUMBER, amnt OUT NUMBER)
AS BEGIN
SELECT AMOUNT INTO amnt FROM INVOICE WHERE INVOICE_NR = invoicenr;
END;

And then call the function as it is:

DECLARE
amount NUMBER;
BEGIN
PROC1(1000001, amount);
dbms_output.put_line(amount);
END;

Solution 2:

I had the same problem. I used a trigger and in that trigger I called a procedure which computed some values into 2 OUT variables. When I tried to print the result in the trigger body, nothing showed on screen. But then I solved this problem by making 2 local variables in a function, computed what I need with them and finally, copied those variables in your OUT procedure variables. I hope it'll be useful and successful!

Solution 3:

Go to Menu Tool -> SQL Output, Run the PL/SQL statement, the output will show on SQL Output panel.
