Issue/Introduction

Description:

The NSQL construction SUM(DECODE(R.ID,4,0,NVL(R.ID,0)/ .. causes Error 500 on a portlet when used as a power filter.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Create a Clarity Query

   SELECT @SELECT:DIM:USER_DEF:IMPLIED:RESOURCE:R.FULL_NAME:[email protected], 
            @SELECT:DIM_PROP:USER_DEF:IMPLIED:RESOURCE:MR.FULL_NAME:[email protected], 
   @SELECT:METRIC:USER_DEF:IMPLIED:SUM(DECODE(R.ID,4,0,NVL(R.ID,0)/(CASE WHEN 
   R.ID <> 0 THEN 1 ELSE 3600 END))):[email protected] 
   FROM INV_INVESTMENTS I, 
            SRM_RESOURCES R, 
            SRM_RESOURCES MR, 
            CMN_SEC_USERS U 
   WHERE I.CREATED_BY = U.ID 
   AND U.ID = R.USER_ID 
   AND R.MANAGER_ID = MR.USER_ID 
   AND @[email protected] 
   GROUP BY R.FULL_NAME, 
            MR.FULL_NAME 
   HAVING @[email protected]

2. Create a Clarity portlet where the AGG attribute is in the filter section
   
   
3. Use the portlet

Expected: The user should be able to filter according to AGG attribute.
Actual: Error 500 - Internal Server Error.
