How to identify missing value in column (without aggregation function)?

Hi everyone,

unfortunately I could not find an answer to this question in the forum yet. I have a table X associated with table Y. I would like to primarily take the cost from table Y (the up-to-date cost values are to be found here) and if it is not available, only then from table X.

For some IDs from table X the entry in table Y is missing and theerefore the cost data can only be found in table X. Sample data:

Table NameIDMonthly_Cost_X
X1100
X2450
X3200

 

Table NameIDMonthly_Cost_Y
Y1100
   
Y3200


For this purpose I was trying to use the MissingCount function, however, this only works with aggregates. What I would finally need in the end is something like this: 

Sum(if(MissingCount(Monthly_Cost_Y)>0, Monthly_Cost_X, Monthly_Cost_Y))
For the sample date I would expect the following sums: ID 1:100, ID 2: 450, ID 3: 200.
Could you please suggest me a solution to this problem?

Thanks and BR
Máté
