Symptoms

OBIEE 12c - Impala - Nested TIMESTAMPADD,TIMESTAMPDIFF does not get submitted in the physical query

After installing the patch 26437161 - IMPALA TRIM AND TIMESTAMPADD,TIMESTAMPDIFF ISSUE. The nested timestampadd functions does not get propagated/submitted in the physical SQL to the DB.

For example TimeStampAdd(SQL_TSI_MONTH, -12, Current_Date) gets submitted as add_months('2017-09-26', -12) but TimeStampAdd(SQL_TSI_DAY,-(DayOfMonth(Current_Date)), TimeStampAdd(SQL_TSI_MONTH, -12, Current_Date)) does not show up on the physical SQL.

Nested timestampadds are supported with Oracle as a DB, the function gets translated and gets pushed down to the DB in the SQL.

This is coming after customer applied this patch:
BUG 26437161 - IMPALA TRIM AND TIMESTAMPADD,TIMESTAMPDIFF ISSUE

After applying the patch, nested TIMESTAMPADD functions does not get
propagated/submitted in the physical SQL to the DB.

For example TimeStampAdd(SQL_TSI_MONTH, -12, Current_Date) gets submitted as
add_months('2017-09-26', -12) but
TimeStampAdd(SQL_TSI_DAY,-(DayOfMonth(Current_Date)),
TimeStampAdd(SQL_TSI_MONTH, -12, Current_Date)) does not show up on the
physical SQL.

Nested TIMESTAMPADD are supported with Oracle as a DB, the function gets
translated and gets pushed down to the DB in the SQL. Need same
functionality with IMPALA DB. Patch provided is not fixing the issue.
