Problem description: | |
A GROUP BY clause specified on columns from a single source may not be fully optimized under certain conditions, which are: - The GROUP BY clause is used in a subselect - The subselect is used in an OUTER JOIN - The GROUP BY clause only groups columns from a single source - At least one of the columns in the GROUP BY clause defines uniqueness - The source of the columns is used in a join - All columns referenced in the output list of the subselect are simple, i.e., are not used in any expressions | |

Local Fix: | |
The issue can be worked around by include one or more columns in the output list of the subselect in a no-op (no-operation) expression. For example, an integer column (c1) used in the output list of a subselect could be re-written as (c1+0). | |
