I am not clear on what will make a fast refresh materialized view too
complex. What functions cannot be used in a FRMV that is a single table
aggregation? The following example won't work if I try to add the decode:

create materialized view log on emp
tablespace &&tbsname
with sequence, primary key, rowid (job, hiredate, sal, comm)
including new values
;

create materialized view emp_mv2
  tablespace &&tbsname
  build immediate
  refresh fast on commit
  with rowid
  enable query rewrite
  as
    select count(*) n, job, to_char(hiredate,'DD-MON-YYYY') hiredate,
           sum(sal) sum_sal, count(sal) cnt_sal, sum(comm) sum_comm,
count(comm) cnt_comm
                -- , sum(decode(status,'O',sal,comm)),
count(decode(status,'O',sal,comm))  -- Add this line and it is not fast
refresh.
              from emp
            group by job, to_char(hiredate,'DD-MON-YYYY')
/

Thanks,

Mike
