It would be interesting to see what the query planner tries to do with
this:
WHERE
CASE
WHEN a.tran_type = 'ar_rec' THEN y.posted
WHEN a.tran_type = 'cb_rec' THEN w.posted
END = '1'
I have attached the schema showing the full VIEW definition, and the
result of the following EXPLAIN -
EXPLAIN SELECT * FROM ccc.ar_trans WHERE cust_row_id = 4 AND tran_date
BETWEEN '2015-06-01' AND '2015-06-30'.
Because I have used 'WHERE tran_date' in the query, and tran_date is
also derived from a CASE expression, I imagine that will also add some
complication.
I am running PostgreSQL 11.1 on Fedora 29.

On reflection, I have not been consistent with my use of indexes, and I
think that will affect the query plan.
There are at least two issues -
1. The first table defined in the VIEW is ccc.ar_tran_inv. It has the
following index -
"arinv_cust_date" btree (cust_row_id NULLS FIRST, tran_date NULLS
FIRST) WHERE deleted_id = 0
I have not used "WHERE deleted_id = 0" when constructing the VIEW, but I
have used "WHERE posted = '1'". I don't think the index can be used with
this setup.
2. The complicated table in the VIEW is ccc.ar_rec_subtran. Various
columns such as tran_date and posted are retrieved via CASE expressions
from two underlying tables. Those tables have certain indexes defined,
but I cannot see how they can be utilised from my current setup.
I think I should spend some time tidying this up before you try to make
sense of the query plan. Any tips on how to improve it will be appreciated.
