put the type in a package spec where anyone can see it. For example:
create package TYPES
as
type products_table is table of products index by binary_integer; end;
create or replace procedure proc_xx( table_in types.products_table )
as
begin
.....
end
You need to put it in a SPEC for others to be able to see it (and hence let them call your routine. They too will need to use the type TYPES.PRODUCTS_TABLE when declaring a variable to pass to you)
