I have table with two _id (document_id and document_store_id). And I have a view:

SELECT document_items.document_store_id AS document_id, document_items.vat_type_id, vat_type_value, sum(document_items.document_item_value) AS document_netto_value
   FROM document_items
   JOIN vat_type ON document_items.vat_type_id = vat_type.vat_type_id
GROUP BY document_items.document_store_id, document_items.vat_type_id, vat_type_value
UNION
SELECT document_items.document_id, document_items.vat_type_id, vat_type_value, sum(document_items.document_item_value) AS document_netto_value
   FROM document_items
   JOIN vat_type ON document_items.vat_type_id = vat_type.vat_type_id
GROUP BY document_items.document_id, document_items.vat_type_id, vat_type_value;

each of these two SELECTs almost always produce the same results (because document_store_id almost always is equal to document_id , so the result of VIEW should be exact the same as result of each SELECT.

BUT it isn't - example:
(SELECT * FROM document_values_by_vat WHERE document_id = '65615')

document_id     vat_type_id     vat_type_value  document_netto_value
65615           1               0               0       
65615           4               0.07            -12.5327
65615           5               0.22            -7.31148
65615           5               0.22            -7.31148

the expected result is:
document_id     vat_type_id     vat_type_value  document_netto_value
65615           1               0               0       
65615           4               0.07            -12.5327
65615           5               0.22            -7.31148

the result of first select is:
document_id     vat_type_id     vat_type_value  document_netto_value
65615           1               0               0       
65615           4               0.07            -12.5327
65615           5               0.22            -7.31148

the result of second select is:
document_id     vat_type_id     vat_type_value  document_netto_value
65615           1               0               0       
65615           4               0.07            -12.5327
65615           5               0.22            -7.31148

Any ideas?
