Unable to insert more than once into an Oracle table through ODI

Question

Hi,
The scenario is I need to load a table which stores the contact informations (Phones).
The source data is such that the different types of phones come from different source tables (Home phone, Work Phone, Fax etc)
I have developed different interfaces in ODI based on the types of phones.
The issue is for the first time, if I run any of the interfaces it runs properly & the data gets inserted properly. Then if I run any of the other interfaces, it is unable to insert into the intermediate I$ table (I$_Phones) and is stuck there forever :-)
Is it an ODI issue or an issue with the database? I have manually copied the query and tried to load it into the intermediate table, but it didn't work.
Have any of you faced this type of issues in ODI ever? If so, are there any work arounds?
PS - I have checked whether I am dropping the intermediate flow tables after inserting the records.

Thanks Ankit,
I was using IKM Oracle Incremental Update. The volume of data is around 300,000.
It didn't fail, It just took forever. It got stuck in the step "Insert flow in I$ table". (FYI, I have disabled the Flow control in the IKM).
Almost the same query ran properly and got the data loaded when its used in the initial interface. I have pasted the query below.
/* DETECTION_STRATEGY = NOT_EXISTS */
insert /*+ APPEND */ into PROD_ODI_WORK.I$_PHONES
     SRC_CLIENT_ID,
     PHONE_NO,
     PHONE_TYPE_ID,
     IND_UPDATE
select      
     C1_SRC_CLIENT_ID     SRC_CLIENT_ID,
     C2_PHONE_NO     PHONE_NO,
     1     PHONE_TYPE_ID,
     'I' IND_UPDATE
from     PROD_ODI_WORK.C$_0PHONES
where     (1=1)
and not exists (
     select     'X'
     from     CIF_STG.PHONES T
     where     T.SRC_CLIENT_ID     = C1_SRC_CLIENT_ID
     and     T.SRC_SYSTEM_ID     = 'BARS'
          and     ((C2_PHONE_NO = T.PHONE_NO) or (C2_PHONE_NO IS NULL and T.PHONE_NO IS NULL))
          and     ((1 = T.PHONE_TYPE_ID) or (1 IS NULL and T.PHONE_TYPE_ID IS NULL))
     )
