lets say first table A and second table B,

select *
from A full outer join B
on A.[user id] = B.[userid]
where A.[userid] is null or B.[userid] is null

Or to see the result better:

select A.[userid], A.[username], A.[first name], A.[lastname], B.[orderid], B.[ordername]
from A left join B
on A.[user id] = B.[userid]
where B.[userid] is null
UNION ALL
select B.[userid], A.[username], A.[first name], A.[lastname], B.[orderid], B.[ordername]
from B left join A
on B.[user id] = A.[userid]
where A.[userid] is null
