Hi Maximilian,

It has been a while since you sent the e-mail. I hope you have already fixed the problem.

I think the issue is the way you tried to loop over the refcursor.
FOR curClient IN FETCH ALL FROM p_clients LOOP

I haven't tested. But, I think you should update your loop like this
LOOP
    FETCH p_clients INTO curClient;
    EXIT WHEN NOT FOUND;

Oops, of course I messed with the outer message before sending it to the list, sorry for that, so the actual error message is:

ERROR:  cannot open FETCH query as cursor
CONTEXT:  PL/pgSQL function f_client_getcoachingsuccessrate(refcursor) line 10 at FOR over SELECT rows
SQL statement "Select rates.successrate,rates.unclearrate,rates.failrate from f_client_getCoachingsuccessrate(invitedClients) rates"
PL/pgSQL function f_client_get3rdfeedbacksuccessrate() line 7 at SQL statement

I am using PG 16.1 btw.
