I want to order this union statement by sd.businessnameid (in alphbetic order). I tried
order by sd.businessname but it looks like it orders it by firstname + ' ' + lastname
What I have below doesnt work. I get this error:
ORDER BY items must appear in the select list if the statement contains a UNION, INTERSECT or EXCEPT operator.

UNION ALL
SELECT parentId = businessnameid, businessnameId = id, NAME = firstname + ' ' + LASTname, website ='' FROM dbo.SignupHCProvider
--ORDER BY SUBSTRING(sd.BusinessName,1,1) DESC
