Create or replace view cnPointsDetailsvw
as select sum(cd.value), sum(cd1.points)
from customerdetails cd left join
customerdetails1 cd1 on cd.customerid = cd1.customerid;
The problem is that the above query is calculating sum
multiple times for the column cd1.points

If table customerdetails1 has only 1 row, so why you use SUM()
function?
Just use MAX()
.
I am confused of your table, so let me give a sample structurs and data.
table1
id points
-----------
1 10
2 20
3 40
table2
id points
-----------
1 10
1 2
1 4
2 20
3 40
3 5
And your query should be looks like this :
CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW view_name AS
SELECT t1.id,max(t1.points) as points1, sum(t2.points) as points2
FROM table1 t1
LEFT JOIN table2 t2 ON t1.id = t2.id
GROUP BY t1.id
Your view should be looks like this :
id points1 points2
---------------------
1 10 16
2 20 20
3 30 45

Do the calculation in subqueries, then join their results:
SELECT
CD.sum_value, CD1.sum_points
FROM
(SELECT sum(value) as sum_value FROM customerdetails) CD
INNER JOIN (SELECT sum(points) AS sum_points FROM customerdetails1) CD1
ON 1 = 1
Please note, that SUM()
returns NULL
if there were no matching rows, so the subqueries will return with exactly one record -> any ON condition
will be fine which results to true.
If you want to group by customers, then do the grouping in the subqueries:
SELECT
CD.customerid, CD.sum_value, CD1.sum_points
FROM
(
SELECT customerid, sum(value) as sum_value
FROM customerdetails
GROUP BY customerid
) CD
LEFT JOIN
(
SELECT customerid, sum(points) AS sum_points
FROM customerdetails1
GROUP BY customerid
) CD1
ON CD.customerid = CD1.customerid
UPDATE
To create a view (and bypass the limitation of MySQL), you have to create 3 views: 2 for the 2 subresults, 1 to join their results:
CREATE VIEW customer_value AS
SELECT SUM(value) as sum_value FROM customerdetails;
CREATE VIEW customer_points AS
SELECT SUM(points) as sum_points FROM customerdetails1;
CREATE VIEW cnPointsDetailsvw AS
SELECT cv.sum_value, cp.sum_points
FROM customer_value cv
INNER JOIN customer_points cp
ON 1=1;
