    Materialized View in more than one Refresh Group

    I have 5 MViews that I want to refresh in two occassions, every sundays and at the 1st of the month. I created a Refresh Group for the weekly and that work fine. But when I tried to created the second Refresh Group for the monthly I get a "materialized view is already in a refresh group".

    You can only have a materialized view in one refresh group? What options to I have to refresh it in different intervals?

    Thanks

    You can use DBMS_REFRESH.CHANGE to change the refresh interval.

    A job can be scheduled to DBMS_REFRESH.CHANGE back and forth from every-Sunday to 1st-of-the-month schedules.

    Pablo, is changing the schedule really the best solution?
    What about creating a function to find the next date?

    Code:
    CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION get_next_run_date
    RETURN DATE
    AS
       v_run_Date DATE;
    BEGIN
       SELECT MIN(next_run_date)
         INTO v_run_Date
         FROM ( SELECT TRUNC(NEXT_DAY( SYSDATE, 'SUNDAY'))+1/24 next_run_date FROM dual
                 UNION ALL
                SELECT ADD_MONTHS(TRUNC(SYSDATE, 'MM'), 1)+1/24 next_run_date FROM dual );
       RETURN v_run_Date;
    END;
    /
    
    SQL> SELECT TO_CHAR(next_run_date, 'DD-MON-YYYY:HH24:MI:SS') next_run_date
      FROM ( SELECT TRUNC(NEXT_DAY( SYSDATE, 'SUNDAY'))+1/24 next_run_date FROM dual
              UNION ALL
             SELECT ADD_MONTHS(TRUNC(SYSDATE, 'MM'), 1)+1/24 next_run_date FROM dual );
      2    3    4
    NEXT_RUN_DATE

    Gandolf - my solution works and it is functional; yours works and it is poetry :-)
