Julian date mask & ORA-01821: date format not recognized

I am writing a new Oracle Report that requires a group by using 2 different dates (and a variance on those dates of week, month, qtr and year). In my select stmt, I have a decode for each date that must be used - see code below. The date option of "Quote Creation Date" works for all instances..no problems. The date option of "Version Creation Date" fails on the option with the Julian date mask. The other 4 (week, month, qtr and year) all work. I cannot reproduce this in SQLPlus or in Toad for Oracle. Any input is appreciated!

what I get from concurrent manager

ORA-01821: date format not recognized
ORA-02063: preceding line from NIDWMRT
==> SELECT DECODE ( : p_group_by1 , 'Quote Creation Date' , TO_CHAR ( nidw.version_creation_date , 'j' ) , 'Quote Creation Date (Week)' , TO_CHAR ( nidw.version_creation_date , 'w-mon-yyyy' ) , 'Quote Creation Date (Month)' , TO_CHAR ( nidw.version

CODE

SELECT DECODE (:p_group_by1,
'Quote Creation Date', TO_CHAR (nidw.VERSION_CREATION_DATE,'J'),
'Quote Creation Date (Week)', TO_CHAR(nidw.VERSION_CREATION_DATE,'W-MON-YYYY'),
'Quote Creation Date (Month)', TO_CHAR(nidw.VERSION_CREATION_DATE,'MON-RRRR'),
'Quote Creation Date (Qtr)', 'Q'|| TO_CHAR (nidw.VERSION_CREATION_DATE, 'Q-RR'),
'Quote Creation Date (Year)', TO_CHAR(nidw.VERSION_CREATION_DATE,'YYYY')),
DECODE (:p_group_by1,
'Version Creation Date', TO_CHAR(nidw.VERSION_CREATION_DATE,'J'),
'Version Creation Date (Week)', TO_CHAR(nidw.VERSION_CREATION_DATE,'W-MON-YYYY'),
'Version Creation Date (Month)', TO_CHAR(nidw.VERSION_CREATION_DATE,'MON-RRRR'),
'Version Creation Date (Qtr)', 'Q'|| TO_CHAR (nidw.VERSION_CREATION_DATE, 'Q-RR'),
'Version Creation Date (Year)', TO_CHAR(nidw.VERSION_CREATION_DATE,'YYYY'))
