i think this query can be rewritten as
SELECT claim_id,sum(invoices),sum(payments)
FROM logs
GROUP BY claim_id
HAVING sum(invoices) > 0 OR sum(payments) > 0;
having clause can be used with aggregate functions but
those functions should be the part of column
list/expression list in the SELECT statement.
