Re: pay_balance_values_v (ORACLE APPS HRMS) problem.

I don't see why not been allowed to change any SQL provided by Oracle would prevent you from tracing it. It doesn't work as you would like it to. Check what it does. Get the query text if you can. See how you would like it to work. Try hints. Once you know how it *should* work you have a number of options opened, without even touching the code: - A number of parameters can possibly be modified, preferably at the session level, to change the behaviour of the optimiser (BTW, stupid question but ... stats are OK? Perhaps that some surgically computed histogram would help)
- When everything else fails, you can use the black magic of outlines to make Oracle execute the query as best suits you.
