hello,
when i use the set @transctnID = scope_identity()

what data type would the scope_identity() function be ? Should i use convert(int,scope_identity())

I am getting an error in my code and trying to debug it.

The error is
[CODE](1 row(s) affected)

Server: Msg 8114, Level 16, State 4, Procedure Financials_PO_Core, Line 0
Error converting data type varchar to int.
The statement has been terminated.[/CODE]

and i am wondering if its an integer value.

REason is because i declared the @transactnID as int , however during execution, i get the above error message.

Do i convert it to int ?
thanks

I think you might be looking in the wrong place...

It appears you are trying to insert a non-numeric value into an int datatype field.
