Solution 1

could drop the foreign key, make sure its not needed first though. I'm guessing that really that's just duplicated data and should only really be in one of those tables.

Solution 2

Check the constraint FK_Tbl_Sales_Details_Tbl_Sales. Make sure the value that you are trying to insert is available on the column referenced in the referenced table.

Solution 3

The c_year column in Tbl_Sales_Details table is foreign key to the Tbl_Sales table. You were trying to insert the value of 2015 which does not exist in Tbl_Sales table. This value must exist in the Tbl_Sales table first.
