Your view assumes that all three "streams" contain all the proj_no's
whereas your test data for expense_report_cost_sum_view has no proj_no
= 764.

How do you know which of the three "streams" contains all proj_no's?

Maybe you should consider the crosstab code so you end up with
something like this;-

proj_no | Labour | Material | Expenses

  45    | 10810  |   5394   |   2564
 764    |  8712  |   7249   |      0
 789    | 46335  |   4007   |   1747
