 Title: Self join removal

 I have a performance issue with the following query due to self join and usage of Max function. The self joined table has 40 million records approx. We are using only about 2% to 3% of the total data in the table.
Please find below the query.
We have created unique index on (asset_id, pricing_pt_id, prc_dt, accept_flg).

SELECT max(tpm2.prc_dt), --previous prc_dt
tpm2.asset_id ,
tpm2.pricing_pt_id ,
tpm1.prc_dt --prc_dt
FROM t_prc_master tpm1,
t_prc_master tpm2
WHERE tpm1.prc_dt = report_date_
AND tpm1.asset_id = tpm2.asset_id
AND tpm1.pricing_pt_id = tpm2.pricing_pt_id
AND tpm2.prc_dt < tpm1.prc_dt
AND tpm2.accept_flg = 'Y'
AND tpm1.accept_flg = 'Y'
GROUP BY tpm2.asset_id, tpm2.pricing_pt_id, tpm1.prc_dt;

Let me know is there any way to avoid max in the above query?
