          on CEQ_LISTE_TYPE_QUESTIONS.ID_LISTE_TYPE_FORMULAIRE=CEQ_FORMULAIRES.ID_TYPE_FORMULAIRE

and ceq_formulaires.date_inactive is null;

The error tells you that the query returns more than 1 row, so you should determine which row you need. Here an example how to fetch the most recent row based on a date field I thought up in ceq_list_type_questions “some_date”.

select max(q.id_liste_type_question) keep (dense_rank last order by q.some_date) into vintidlistetypequestion
from   ceq_formulaires f
join   ceq_liste_type_questions q on q.id_liste_type_formulaire = f.id_type_formulaire
where  f.id_formulaire = to_number(out_rec.id_formulaire) 
and    f.date_inactive is null
and    q.webcode = 'ITEM_BETA_LACTAMASE'
