Oracle stored procedure challenges - oracle

Question

I'm doing my transition from T-SQL TO PL/SQL, in my first attempt I'm trying to create a stored procedure (PL/SQL) to load data into a table, but I'm getting an error:
PL/SQL: SQL Statement ignored
ORA-06550: line 29, column 4:
PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "end-of-file" when expecting one of the following:
Code:
declare
v_str VARCHAR2(32767) := '<ns0:ConnCustomerOrgServiceCreateRequest xmlns:ns0="http://tempuri.org" xmlns:ns6="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2008/01/documents/ConnItemSvc" xmlns:ns4="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2011/02/documents/DocumentPaging" xmlns:ns7="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2011/02/documents/EntityKeyPage" xmlns:ns5="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2006/02/documents/EntityKey" xmlns:ns1="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2008/01/sharedtypes" xmlns:ns3="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2006/02/documents/QueryCriteria" xmlns:ns8="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2006/02/documents/EntityKeyList" xmlns:ns2="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2008/01/documents/ConnCustomerOrg" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">

You must have an INTO clause when you are using a SELECT statement in a PL/SQL. INTO clause lets you store the values in a declared variable/s so you can access them inside the block whenever you want. Try this:
declare
v_str VARCHAR2(32767) := '<ns0:ConnCustomerOrgServiceCreateRequest xmlns:ns0="http://tempuri.org" xmlns:ns6="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2008/01/documents/ConnItemSvc" xmlns:ns4="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2011/02/documents/DocumentPaging" xmlns:ns7="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2011/02/documents/EntityKeyPage" xmlns:ns5="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2006/02/documents/EntityKey" xmlns:ns1="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2008/01/sharedtypes" xmlns:ns3="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2006/02/documents/QueryCriteria" xmlns:ns8="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2006/02/documents/EntityKeyList" xmlns:ns2="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2008/01/documents/ConnCustomerOrg" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<ns2:ConnCustomerOrg>
<ns2:CustTable class="entity">
<ns2:AccountNum xsi:nil="true" />
<ns2:CreditMax>0</ns2:CreditMax>
<ns2:CustGroup>10</ns2:CustGroup>
<ns2:Organization class="entity">
<ns2:NumberOfEmployees xsi:nil="true" />
<ns2:OrganizationName class="entity">
<ns2:Name>PRUEBA</ns2:Name>
</ns2:OrganizationName>
</ns2:Organization>
</ns2:CustTable>
</ns2:ConnCustomerOrg>
</ns0:ConnCustomerOrgServiceCreateRequest>
';
v_xml XMLTYPE := XMLTYPE(v_str);
v_accountnum VARCHAR2(2000);
v_creditmax VARCHAR2(2000);--i just assumed their datatypes since i cannot use %TYPE in here because i dont know what table accountnum and creditmax came from
BEGIN
SELECT x.AccountNum, x.CreditMax
INTO v_accountnum, v_creditmax
FROM t
,XMLTABLE('/ConnCustomerOrgServiceCreateRequest/ConnCustomerOrg/CustTable'
PASSING t.xml
COLUMNS AccountNum NUMBER PATH '/CustTable/AccountNum'
,CreditMax NUMBER PATH '/REC/CreditMax'
) x;
END;
Hope this helps.

You are missing a semicolon ; after your select statement. Every statement must be terminated with a ;.
declare
v_str VARCHAR2(32767) := '<ns0:ConnCustomerOrgServiceCreateRequest xmlns:ns0="http://tempuri.org" xmlns:ns6="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2008/01/documents/ConnItemSvc" xmlns:ns4="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2011/02/documents/DocumentPaging" xmlns:ns7="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2011/02/documents/EntityKeyPage" xmlns:ns5="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2006/02/documents/EntityKey" xmlns:ns1="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2008/01/sharedtypes" xmlns:ns3="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2006/02/documents/QueryCriteria" xmlns:ns8="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2006/02/documents/EntityKeyList" xmlns:ns2="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2008/01/documents/ConnCustomerOrg" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<ns2:ConnCustomerOrg>
<ns2:CustTable class="entity">
<ns2:AccountNum xsi:nil="true" />
<ns2:CreditMax>0</ns2:CreditMax>
<ns2:CustGroup>10</ns2:CustGroup>
<ns2:Organization class="entity">
<ns2:NumberOfEmployees xsi:nil="true" />
<ns2:OrganizationName class="entity">

</ns2:OrganizationName>
</ns2:Organization>
</ns2:CustTable>
</ns2:ConnCustomerOrg>
</ns0:ConnCustomerOrgServiceCreateRequest>
';
v_xml XMLTYPE := XMLTYPE(v_str);
begin
select x.AccountNum, x.CreditMax
from t
,XMLTABLE('/ConnCustomerOrgServiceCreateRequest/ConnCustomerOrg/CustTable'
PASSING t.xml
COLUMNS AccountNum NUMBER PATH '/CustTable/AccountNum'

end;
