No function matches the given name and argument types

Question

My function is:

 CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION FnUpdateSalegtab09
(
 iacyrid Integer,iRepId Integer,iDrId Integer,ivrid Integer,imode smallint,itrno 
varchar,it         


        

Answer 1

That error means that a function call is only matched by an existing function if all its arguments are of the same type and passed in same order. So if the next f() function

create function f() returns integer as $$ 
    select 1;
$$ language sql;

is called as

select f(1);

It will error out with

ERROR:  function f(integer) does not exist
LINE 1: select f(1);
               ^
HINT:  No function matches the given name and argument types. You might need to add explicit type casts.

because there is no f() function that takes an integer as argument.

So you need to carefully compare what you are passing to the function to what it is expecting. That long list of table columns looks like bad design.
