Patrick,

If you open the database with RESETLOGS after you flashback the database, you can still do PITR (recover database until time). You just need to flashback the database again using FLASHBACK DATABASE TO BEFORE RESETLOGS.
1. Flashback the database;
2. Open it with "RESETLOGS";
3. Test it;
4. Flashback the database with "TO BEFORE RESETLOGS";
5. Recover the database with "UNTIL TIME";
