Can anyone help on this stored procedure, The Proceedure works fine except that it rounds my charge ie if the charge is 3.5 it displays 4, I've tried to conver the @charge to money, but when I do this i get an error which says

Err 257: Implicit Conversion from datatype money to nvarchar is not allowed, Use the CONVERT function to run this query.

CREATE PROCEDURE BS_CustomerBundleAllowances

@CustomerID Char(6),
@Charge int = 0 OUTPUT,
@Mins int = 0 OUTPUT,
@IntMins int = 0 OUTPUT

AS

SET NOCOUNT ON

Begin
Select CustomerID, BoltOnRef, Allowance, Charge, Mins, IntMins into #Allowance
from BS_BundleAllowances
WHERE CustomerID = @CustomerID
End

Begin
UPDATE #allowance
SET Allowance = 0
WHERE (Allowance < 1)
End

Begin
UPDATE #Allowance
SET
Charge = tblBoltOns.Charge,
Mins = tblBoltOns.Mins,
IntMins = tblBoltOns.Int_Mins
From tblBoltOns, #Allowance
WHERE (tblBoltOns.BoltOnRef = #Allowance.BoltOnRef) and (#Allowance.Allowance = 0)
End

SET @Charge = (Select Charge from #Allowance)
SET @Mins = (Select Mins from #Allowance)*60
SET @IntMins = (Select IntMins from #Allowance)*60

Print @Charge
Print @Mins
Print @IntMins

-- View Allowances for each customer
Select * from #Allowance
 
What datatype is tblBoltOns.Charge (not @charge)?

BTW: INTEGER is whole numbers only, that's why the number is rounding. I suggest using DECIMAL(precision,scale). Figure out how many total digits (precision) you are likely to have and how many of those digits will be to the right of the decimal (scale). For example:

1234.56 is DECIMAL(6,2)
12.3456 is DECIMAL(6,4)
