Answer / harsha
Error code is the code for the error for ex 3807 is the error code for the error "object does not exist"
To know the error codes type
select * from dbc.errormsgs
in the Queryman
Error level is the severity set for the corresponding error code
if error level is
0- Success
4- Warning
8- User Error
12- Fatal error
16- Typical Error

Answer / yuvaevergreen
Error code or return code is a value returned by BTEQ at
the end of each query. Error level is a bteq command used
to assign severity to some error numbers.
.IF ERRORCODE > 0 THEN .GOTO ... is an example for error
code .SET ERRORLEVEL 3807 SEVERITY 0 is an example.

Answer / vinay sir(datawarehousing tech
One small correction to the above answer.
Errorcode: The code returned by the previous sql statement
which resembles the error message information(we can see in
DBC.ErrorMsgs table).
Return Code: The code return by the script after execution.
These return codes can be 0,2,4,8,12,16.
Note: Error code and Return code are different.
Errorlevel:The severity set to the errorcode at the
time of errorhandling.

Answer / tdguy
Errorcode is used in bteq conditional logic. It holds the
return code of every sql in bteq. 0 indicates perfect
excution of the sql.
Errorlevel assigns severity to error numbers.

Answer / uli
in addiion to the above
Error-Coce is set with each SQL-statement
Error-level is kept for the whole Session
So, it makes a difference in conditinals
.if ERRORCODE -- question about the last statement
.if ERRORLEVEL -- question about the highest level reached
