It is a really good practice to explicitly cast strings to dates like such:
invoice_date BETWEEN to_date('01-Sep-10','dd-mon-yy') and
to_date('30-Sep-10','dd-mon-yy')
This assumes that INVOICE_DATE is a defined as DATE also.
BTW - KEY does not mean partition pruning does not happen - it means that
partitions can not be determined at query compilation time, it will
be determined at execution time.
