Query definition: column ambiguously defined

Former Member

When there are two columns with same name but with different table alias, i get this error.

For example, i have two columns in my query "Results Fields"  with T3.EXTERNAL_ID and T5.EXTERNAL_ID. This results in this error.

ORA-00918 column ambiguously defined.

If i remove one of them, everything is perfect. Even if I replace table alias with actual table name, it is same. I'm wondering if anyone has workarounds or experienced this issue before.

Thanks!

Hi Kranti,

Use the actual table name in the join instead of the alias. Hopefully that should resolve the issue.

Hi Kranti,

Do you mind sharing the entire Query Definition ?
