Trying to find entries in fedexinvoices where smp_pkg.get_invoice_charges(id) returns a record containing charge_name in ('ADDRESS CORRECTION CHARGE','ADDRESS CORRECTION'). Should return the fedexinvoices row and the row from smp_pkg.get_invoice_charges that contains the address correction.

First, please don't top-post when someone has replied underneath your
post. It makes the thread totally unreadable. See
<http://idallen.com/topposting.html>

You could do something like this:

WITH invoices as
(
select *
from fedexinvoices
where trim(fedexinvoices.trackno)='799159791643'
),

charges as
(
SELECT fi2.id, smp_pkg.get_invoice_charges(fi2.id) charge_info
from fedexinvoices fi2 join invoices i on i.id = f12.id
)

select invoices.*
from invoices
inner join charges on charges.id = invoices.id
AND (charges.charge_info).charge_name IN ('ADDRESS CORRECTION
CHARGE','ADDRESS CORRECTION')

;

Or probably something way simpler but I just did this fairly quickly and
mechanically
