SQL Query JOIN with Table

If this is the data in TestingTable1

BUYER_ID  |   ITEM_ID       |  CREATED_TIME
----------+-----------------+----------------------
1345653      151851771618     2012-07-09 19:57:33
1345653      110909316904     2012-07-09 21:29:06
1345653      221065796761     2012-07-09 19:31:48

And if this is the below data in TestingTable2

USER_ID  |   PRODUCT_ID    |    LAST_TIME
---------+----------------+-----------------------
1345653     150851771618      2012-07-09 19:57:33
1345653     110909316904      2012-07-09 22:29:06

I need to compare TestingTable2 with TestingTable1 on BUYER_ID and USER_ID. I need to see, if BUYER_ID and USER_ID gets matched then I need to compare ITEM_ID with PRODUCT_ID and CREATED_TIME with LAST_TIME and if there is a mismatch in TestingTable2 after comparing with TestingTable1 in either one of them or both of them, then I need to show the result.

So if you look at the above example- I have three scenarios basically

1. Firstly- In TestingTable1, in the First row ITEM_ID is not matching with PRODUCT_ID in the First row of TestingTable2 but CREATED_TIME is matching with LAST_TIME for the first row in both the tables
2. Secondly- In TestingTable1, in the Second row CREATED_TIME is not matching with LAST_TIME in the second row of TestingTable2 but ITEM_ID is matching with PRODUCT_ID for the second row in both the tables
3. Thirdly- In TestingTable1, in the Third row ITEM_ID is not matching with PRODUCT_ID and also CREATED_TIME is not matching with LAST_TIME, so in the third row BOTH of them does not match with TestingTable1 third row.

So these are three case that I need to cover while comparing TestingTable2 with TestingTable1 always. And TestingTable1 is the MAIN table through which comparisons need to be made always, so it means data in TestingTable1 is always accurate.

So I need to show the result like this considering the above example if not matching either one of them or both of them- TestingTable1 data then next to it same TestingTable2 data, so that I can see what value was there in TestingTable1 as compared to TestingTable2

BUYER_ID   |   ITEM_ID       |    CREATED_TIME           |      USER_ID   |     PRODUCT_ID     |     LAST_TIME

So I wrote a query, I thought it will cover all my three scenarios, but Only it covered First Two not the Third One. And I am confuse whether we can achieve this third scenario or not?

SELECT * 
FROM(
    SELECT *
    FROM TestingTable1 A
    JOIN TestingTable2 B ON A.BUYER_ID = B.USER_ID AND B.LAST_TIME = A.Created_TIME 
    WHERE B.PRODUCTID <> A.ITEM_ID
    UNION ALL
    SELECT * 
    FROM TestingTable1 A
    INNER JOIN TestingTable2 B ON A.BUYER_ID = B.USER_ID AND B.PRODUCTID = A.ITEM_ID  
    WHERE B.t1time <> A.Created_TIME  
 ) X    

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Update:-

Just a quick update what I was initially thinking to do. As I was aware of few problems with my third scenario.

First of all in TestingTable1, I am sorting(ORDER BY) the table by BUYER_ID and CREATED_TIME and same with TestingTable2 I am sorting with USER_ID and LAST_TIME and I am doing comparison by making sure data belongs to BUYER_ID and USER_ID on a given day.

Answer 1

with C as
(
  select *
  from TestingTable1 A
    inner join TestingTable2 B
      on A.BUYER_ID = B.USER_ID and
         B.LAST_TIME = A.Created_TIME and
         B.PRODUCT_ID <> A.ITEM_ID
  union all
  select * 
  from TestingTable1 A
    inner join TestingTable2 B 
      on A.BUYER_ID = B.USER_ID and 
         B.PRODUCT_ID = A.ITEM_ID and
         B.LAST_TIME <> A.CREATED_TIME
)
select *
from C
union all
select *
from TestingTable1 A
  inner join TestingTable2 B
    on A.BUYER_ID = B.USER_ID and
       A.CREATED_TIME <> B.LAST_TIME and
       A.ITEM_ID <> B.PRODUCT_ID
where not exists (select *
                  from C
                  where A.BUYER_ID = C.BUYER_ID and
                        A.ITEM_ID = C.ITEM_ID and
                        A.CREATED_TIME = C.CREATED_TIME) and
      not exists (select *
                  from C
                  where B.USER_ID = C.USER_ID and
                        B.PRODUCT_ID = C.PRODUCT_ID and
                        B.LAST_TIME = C.LAST_TIME);
