In this bellow example, i created "customers" and "customer_balances" table and i manage each customer balance. I want to order by most highest balance customer should display on top order. So you can see bellow laravel db query for do this stuff with laravel 6 and laravel 5.
Laravel 6:
$customers = Customer::addSelect(['balance' => CustomerBalance::selectRaw('sum(amount) as total')
->whereColumn('customer_id', 'customers.id')
->groupBy('customer_id')
])
->orderBy('balance', 'DESC')
->get()
->toArray();
dd($customers);
Laravel 5:
$customers = User::select("*",
\DB::raw('(SELECT SUM(amount) FROM customer_balances WHERE customer_balances.customer_id = customers.id) as balance'))
->orderBy('balance', 'DESC')
->get()
->toArray();
dd($customers);
Output:

"email" => "test@gmail.com"
"email_verified_at" => null
"created_at" => "2019-09-14 03:10:38"
