Hi , I have a view, below, which does few left outer joins to the same V_MARKET view to get data i need. When I run SQL by itself, ut runs pretty fast, 2-5 seconds. But when I do "select * from V_DEPT_DATA where busines_date = '01-APR-10'", it takes more than 10 minutes to run. I added all needed indexes and still have problems with it . Please help.

CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW V_DEPT_DATA
AS
 SELECT
    v1.business_date ,
    v1.division ,
    v1.department ,
    v1.account ,
    en.trader ,
    en.desk_manager
  FROM V_MARKET v1
  LEFT OUTER JOIN V_MARKET v2
  ON (v1.LAST_BUS_DATE     = v2.BUSINESS_DATE
  AND v1.KEY   = v2.KEY
  AND v1.LEVEL = v2.LEVEL )
  LEFT OUTER JOIN V_MARKET V5
  ON (V1.LAST5_BUS_DATE    = V5.business_date
  AND V1.key   = V5.key
  AND V1.level = V5.level)
  LEFT OUTER JOIN entity en
  ON (v1.account = en.ENTITY_NAME
  AND en.ENTITY_TYPE = 'account')
  WHERE V1.KEY IN (3,4)

>where busines_date = '01-APR-10'
With Oracle characters between single quote marks are STRINGS!
'This is a string, 2009-12-31, not a date'
When a DATE datatype is desired, then use TO_DATE() function.

It would be helpful if you followed Posting Guidelines - http://www.orafaq.com/forum/t/88153/0/

Hi, thanks for response. I tried to_date(), but query still hangs.

You need to give us the explain plan for the query, the view definition of v_market and the list of indexes on the relevant tables.

Why are you joining to v_market twice when you're not selecting anything from the outer-joined instances of that view (v2 and v5)?

My apologies. This is the actual SQL for the view. I attached the explain plan as well. As for your question, the reason I'm joining the same view multiple times is that, for a given business_date I need to find current_date (business_date)previous_date( prev_bus_date)and previous5_date (prev5_bus_date) values. All these columns are in V_MRK_RISK_VAR view. By passing business_date as a parameter, I can find all three values in one shot.

SELECT v1.business_date,
       v1.aggregation_key,
       v1.division,
       v1.department,
       v1.account,
       v1.var_data_key,
       en.trader,
       en.desk_manager,
       en.products_traded,
       en.strategy,
       en.risk_manager,
       en.backup_risk_manager
FROM   v_mkt_risk_var v1
       left outer join v_mkt_risk_var v2
         ON ( v1.prev_bus_date = v2.business_date
              AND v1.aggregation_key = v2.aggregation_key
              AND v1.aggregation_level = v2.aggregation_level
              AND ROWNUM = 1 )
       left outer join v_mkt_risk_var v5
         ON ( v1.prev5_bus_date = v5.business_date
              AND v1.aggregation_key = v5.aggregation_key
              AND v1.aggregation_level = v5.aggregation_level
              AND ROWNUM = 1 )
       left outer join entity en
         ON ( v1.account = en.entity_name
              AND en.entity_type = 'account' )
       inner join (SELECT long_date
                   FROM   date_dim a
                   WHERE  EXISTS (SELECT 'x'
                                  FROM   mkt_risk_var
                                  WHERE  business_date = a.long_date)) dim_dates
         ON ( v1.business_date = dim_dates.long_date )
WHERE  v1.aggregation_key IN ( 3, 4 )
       AND v1.business_date BETWEEN v1.business_date - 1 AND
                                    v1.business_date + 1

So why aren't you selecting them?
Outer joining to a table or view without selecting anything from it is functionaly equivalent to not joining at all.

All these columns are in V_MRK_RISK_VAR view.

So?

These are the columns I'm adding to the select.
v1.VAR95_HIST_TOTAL AS VAR95_HIST_TOTA_cbd ,
v2.VAR95_HIST_TOTAL AS VAR95_HIST_TOTA_pbd ,
v5.VAR95_HIST_TOTAL AS VAR95_HIST_TOTA_p5bd ,

They are totals, based on passed business_date. In other words, when I pass a BUSINESS_DATE to the view, it evaluates PREV_BUS_DATE, PREV5_BUS_DATE colums, whether they contain the same date as BUSINESS_DATE. If any of them does, I will get "VAR95_HIST_TOTAL" for it, for that date. I ran this multiple times and this approach works, it's performance which kills it.

Ok

1) Can you please read and follow the orafaq forum guide - especially the part on how to format your post.
2) Having done that can you post the following in the thread (not attachments), in [code] tags:
a) the revised definition of V_DEPT_DATA
b) the explain plan for it
c) the definition of v_mkt_risk_var
d) The list of indexes on the relevant tables.
