    So what exactly is the issue here?

    I would suggest you use the newer join constructs. With this query you don't even need a where clause.

    Here is the syntax:

    from batt_State s

    join pnLU as p on s.PartNo = p.PartNo

    group by s.partNo, p.descript

    I'd change that to:

    SELECT s.partNo, p.descript,

    CLNT= SUM(CASE WHEN battState = '99' THEN qty ELSE 0 END),

    AVAIL= SUM(CASE WHEN battState = '1' THEN qty ELSE 0 END),

    QAH= SUM(CASE WHEN battState = '20' THEN qty ELSE 0 END),

    BOOST= SUM(CASE WHEN battState = '30' THEN qty ELSE 0 END),

    RESTING = SUM(CASE WHEN battState = '31' THEN qty ELSE 0 END)

    FROM batt_State s

    INNER JOIN pnLU p

    ON s.PartNo = p.PartNo

    WHERE battState IN ('1','20','30','31','99')

    GROUP BY s.partNo, p.descript

    Oh sure...that will only be better if you want the query to be faster. 😀

    That's also assuming that the business requirement is to return rows only where battState IN ('1','20','30','31','99'), which isn't stated by the OP. If he wants a row for every partNo in the batt_State table, but only wants the aggregate SUM values where battState IN ('1','20','30','31','99') (leaving 0 in these columns for other values of battState), then the WHERE battState IN ('1','20','30','31','99') clause should be omitted.
