My advice: Don't quote your identifiers unless you really really want
them to be case sensitive. Usually there's no benefit, and it can add
quite a bit of confusion ("What do you mean my function does not
exist?!? It's right here!").

I don't think that assignments in the declare block are allowed. You
could make your variable an alias though:
DECLARE
TypeArt ALIAS FOR "TypeOfArticle";
You could also move the assignment into the body of the function.
Although I wonder why you don't just use the IN parameter.
