Hi Shirish!
I don't know exactly what your trying to achieve. Obviously a custom validation (pl/sql returning error text).
Does your report contain several different departments or only rows for one department?
Without knowing your layout and demands I fear I cannot help any more.
If your report contains only one department and several rows adding for the total commission you could try:
DECLARE
  vsum      NUMBER;
  vsumcheck NUMBER;
BEGIN
  APEX_COLLECTION.CREATE_OR_TRUNCATE_COLLECTION( p_collection_name => 'VALIDATE');
  FOR j IN 1..APEX_APPLICATION.G_F02.count
  LOOP
    APEX_COLLECTION.ADD_MEMBER(
              p_collection_name => 'VALIDATE',
              p_c001 => APEX_APPLICATION.G_F04(j)
  END LOOP;
begin
    select sum(to_number(c001)) into vsum FROM apex_collections a
        WHERE a.collection_name = 'VALIDATE';
exception when invalid_number then
    return 'Attention! The Commission must be numeric!';
end;
IF vsum > 1000 THEN
    RETURN 'The commission cannot be higher than 1000 for a department! <br>
Please correct your input!';
  END IF;
END;Otherwise you should declare your variable x as number:
DECLARE
l_error VARCHAR2 (4000);
x number(10);
BEGIN
FOR i IN 1 .. apex_application.g_f02.COUNT
LOOP
select sum(nvl(QUANTITY1,0)) INTO x from RM_LOCATION1 where LOCATION1 = apex_application.g_f04(i);
IF x > 1000
THEN
l_error :=
l_error
|| '
|| 'Row '
|| i
|| ': Commission can not be higher '
|| ' than 2000 for department '
|| apex_application.g_f08 (i)
|| ' Employee: '
|| apex_application.g_f03 (i)
|| ' Requested value: '
|| apex_application.g_f07 (i);
return l_error;
END IF;
END LOOP;
END;I hope I could help you at least a little!
Good luck,
Seb
