Scenario 1: 
1. Query has an OR predicate 
2. One of the subterms contains a complex expression with a 
negation. 
eg. NOT CAST (cast('abcd' as CHAR(188)) AS CHARACTER (188)) >= 
TRANSLATE(CAST (cast('xyz' as CHAR(87)) AS CHAR (87))) 
 
Scenario 2: 
1. The query has a case expression as one of the output columns 
2. The case expression contains a complex expression with a 
negation. 
eg. 
SELECT 
CASE 
WHEN NOT CAST (cast('abcd' as CHAR(188)) AS CHARACTER (188)) >= 
SUBSTR (CAST (cast('xyz' as CHAR(87)) AS CHAR (87)), 82, 1)
