see my below code.

--in below select state, i have added only fQtyLastProcess
                  Select @cLotNo = cLotNumber,@fQtyLastProcess = fQtyLastProcess From _btblInvoiceLines
                  Where iInvoiceID in ( Select AutoIndex From Inserted Where DocFlag <> 2)
--Add by Ramzan following block is added
                  SELECT @fQtyExisting= isnull(sum(dbo._etblLotTrackingQty.fQtyOnHand),0) FROM dbo._etblLotTracking INNER JOIN
dbo._etblLotTrackingQty ON dbo._etblLotTracking.idLotTracking = dbo._etblLotTrackingQty.iLotTrackingID
                  WHERE (dbo._etblLotTracking.cLotDescription <> 'OPENING') AND (dbo._etblLotTrackingQty.fQtyOnHand <> 0) and cLotDescription = @cLotNo
                  if ((@fQtyLastProcess + @fQtyExisting)>30)
                  Begin
                        raiserror('Qty Cannot be More than 30MT. in %d',16,1,Convert(VARCHAR(10), @fQtyLastProcess))
                  end

Write RAISERROR('Qty Cannot be More than 30MT. in ' + CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),CONVERT(numeric(16,3),@fQtyLastProcess)))

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but floats cannot be used for the Argument parameter. Only tinyint, smallint, int, char, varchar, nchar, nvarchar, binary, or varbinary can be used. But I think you might be able to try this workaround:

--try this:
DECLARE @varchar_fQtyLastProcess VARCHAR(10)
SET @varchar_fQtyLastProcess = CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), @fQtyLastProcess)
RAISERROR('Qty Cannot be More than 30MT. in %s',16,1,@varchar_fQtyLastProcess)

---in place of 
 raiserror('Qty Cannot be More than 30MT. in %d',16,1,Convert(VARCHAR(10), @fQtyLastProcess))
