SELECT a.CustomerID, SUM(b.DepositBalance), SUM(b.LoanBalance)
FROM All_Accounts a
JOIN (SELECT Account#, DepositBalance, LoanBalance = 0
FROM DepositBalanceTable
UNION ALL
SELECT Account#, 0, LoanBalance
FROM LoanBalanceTable) AS b ON a.Account# = b.Account#
GROUP BY a.CustomerID
The thing in parentheses is a derived table. Conceptually a temp
table within the query, but it is never materialized. Often a very
powerful tool to tackle complicated problems.
