I would use a stored procedure to get the list of users, select the results into a temp table and, using a *cough* while loop, send the sproc per...

Replace A.TOTAL with A.TOTAL*1.00 to avoid an integer divsion (usually resulting in a zero value in such a scenario).

Looking at the execution plan it seems like the statistics for PostingYTD are "slightly" off (estimated 43k rows vs. actual 2.000k rows).

Is there any index maintenance performed regulary?
