Calling procedure from RPD. Error ORA-14552 as it has a commit.

Question

Hi All,
I have implemented the calling of procedure functionality from rpd.
But our data base procedure that is called has commit in it which I guess is not allowed & so we are getting this error.
We need to commit once we finish off the procedure. Please suggest how we can achieve this.
State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 16001] ODBC error state: S1000 code: 14552 message: [Oracle][ODBC][Ora]ORA-14552: cannot perform a DDL, commit or rollback inside a query or DML ORA-06512: at "DWH.DWH_PA_TC_ACCRUAL_PKG", line 1565 ORA-14551: cannot perform a DML operation inside a query ORA-06512: at "DWH.TRAILING_COST_FUNCTION", line 8. [nQSError: 16011] ODBC error occurred while executing SQLExtendedFetch to retrieve the results of a SQL statement. (HY000)
Thanks.

This is we are using from RPD to call the function:
SELECT trailing_cost_function('USD', 'JUN-08', ' POC', '', 'DJRC46', '') AS RET_VAL
FROM dual
Now this is the structure of the function which is in back end db:
CREATE OR REPLACE Function
Trailing_Cost_Function(a IN varchar2,b IN varchar2,c IN varchar2,d IN varchar2,e IN varchar2,
f IN varchar2) return
varchar2 IS
ret_o varchar2(50);
begin
test123; -- calling the procedure
ret_o:='0';
return ret_o;
end;
And the procedure is:
create or replace procedure test123 is
begin
insert into test_123 values ('asssd');
end test123;
