Select
Customer.name customer_name,
(select sum(rest) from movements where movements.customer=customer.code) entity_rest
from
Customer
Where
Customer.deleted=0 and
(select sum(rest) from movements where movements.customer=customer.code) <> 0

But I would use that one:

Select
Customer.name customer_name, sum(rest) entity_rest
from
Customer join
movements on (movements.customer=customer.code)
Where
Customer.deleted=0
having
sum(rest) <> 0


see you !
