Hi,

This error points at the size of plan this query produces and not the query size. May be the query is too complex.

Thanks,
Pravesh

Thank you so much for your reply. The query I am using has 5 sub queries in it and each one of them is doing SUM + CASE + group by. Any suggestion of how to simplify this kind of query?
