A 100
B 200
X 300
Y 400

I have tried this sattement but it doesnot work
SELECT accountname, NULL AS debit, credit FROM revenue
UNION ALL
SELECT accountname, debit, NULL FROM expense

I have tried this sattement but it doesnot work
SELECT accountname, NULL AS debit, credit FROM revenue
UNION
SELECT accountname, debit, NULL FROM expense

This statement is fine. You should get the result. what error you are getting?

Is there any column on which both the tables can be joined (account_id may be).
