Your problem is neither Amount, nor the current_date, but the second and
third parameter.
You defined these 2 parameters as CHAR(2), which means fixed length.
If you specify literals in an SQL Stored Procedure or Function call, they
are treated as VARCHAR.
For SQL VARCHAR and CHAR are different data types.
If you cast your second and third parameter to CHAR, the function should be
found.
