Thanks for the reply but I only see 1 FTS for the last inline view.
Some of the info was truncated from previous post. I am resending output

Please respond
to ORACLE-L
My first thought would be that the plan shows a full table scan for
phy_boards for each in-line view. This is almost certainly due to the
'pb.expiration_Date is null' condition in the where clause of each
in-line view. Since Oracle does not store NULLs in an index (except for
bitmaps), that condition requires a full table scan.
