Simply add the maths in your SELECT and, optionally, add an alias like open_qty to use as a reference in your Reports:

    select ship_qty
    , order_qty
    , (order_qty - ship_qty) open_qty
    from my_table;

or

    select a.ship_qty
    , b.order_qty
    , (b.order_qty - a.ship_qty) open_qty     from my_table1 a
    , my_table2 b
    where a.product_no = b.product_no;
