Invalid functions are the ones that aren't valid for some reason. When you run the CREATE (OR REPLACE) FUNCTION statement (SQL*Plus is a nice tool to do that), Oracle will report if it failed to create the function. SHOW ERRORS will tell you why it failed. Once you fix those errors, CREATE would create the function and make it valid.

object.Please use below mentioned query :


select  owner,object_name,object_type,status
from    dba_objects
