Alex,
No, you can't remove the condition. You have attrl as a user attribute, as well as an "org" (group, presumably) attribute. I wouldn' have designed like this but basically the condition says "the user has this characteristic or s/he belongs to a group that has this characteristic". Something akin to "the user has this privilege or has a role that has this privilege".

Hi
I have the following query for an Identity Management Tool:
SELECT userobj.ID, NAME, summary
FROM userobj
WHERE userobj.NAME LIKE 'A%'
AND userobj.ID IN (
SELECT ID
FROM userattr
WHERE ( attr1 IN ('#ID#TOP')
OR attr1 IN (
SELECT ID
FROM orgattr
WHERE orgattr.attrname = 'CONTAINEDBYOBJECTGROUP'
AND attrval IN ('#ID#TOP'))
))
ORDER BY userobj.ID
select table_name, num_rows, last_analyzed from dba_tables where table_name in
('USEROBJ', 'USERATTR', 'ORGATTR');
TABLE_NAME NUM_ROWS LAST_ANAL
------------------------------ ---------- ---------
USERATTR 1851675 20-OCT-08
USEROBJ 64972 20-OCT-08
ORGATTR 2251 20-OCT-08
I am having difficulty understanding the query, for example the condition " attr1 IN ('#ID#TOP') " can it be taken out to the outer query and not used in the subquery?
TIA
Alex
