Hi,

I am getting below error while creating Updatable Materialized view.

ORA-12013: updatable materialized views must be simple enough to do fast refresh

The query to create materialized view is:

CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW dept FOR UPDATE AS
   SELECT firm, type,
 COUNT(*) ,
date 
 FROM detail 
GROUP BY firm, type, date;

What can I do to make it simple enough?

Please let me know how to proceed further.

Regards,

Remove the group by and count.

Why do you want it to be updateable?

I am no expert with Materialized Views. However, I seem to recall there were very specific rules on how to construct fast refreshable aggregate materialized views. You need to read the docs about materialized views and see where your view fails to meet the requirements of fast refresh.

For example, I think you need count(firm),count(type) as columns. Maybe also sum(firm),sum(type).

Or it may be these rules related to query rewrite and/or restrictions on what additional columns were needed in order to use specific functions and operators if query rewrite was expected. Or maybe a combination of the two ideas fast refreshable and query rewrite.

Point is, there is some docs that will give you more insight. Google up the oracle documentation for fast refreshable Mviews and read about it.

Good luck, Kevin
