I'm trying to copy from table to another with condition and join and when I created it I get an error.

INSERT INTO [ax].[WaitingKitchenStatus]
(
    [TRANSACTIONID]--1
    , [LineNote]--2
    , [Item]--3
    , [CreationDate]--4
    , [CreationTime]--5
    , [active]--6
    ,[Gruop]--7
)

SELECT ab.COMMENT
	,[ax].[ECORESPRODUCTTRANSLATION].[NAME]
    , ab.[ITEMID]
FROM ax.RetailTransactionSalesTrans ab
inner join [ax].[INVENTTABLE] on ab.[ITEMID] =[ax].[INVENTTABLE].[ITEMID]
inner join [ax].[ECORESPRODUCTTRANSLATION] on [ax].[INVENTTABLE].PRODUCT =[ax].[ECORESPRODUCTTRANSLATION].[PRODUCT]
LEFT JOIN ax.[WaitingKitchenStatus] a ON 
a.[TRANSACTIONID]=ab.COMMENT--1
and a.[LineNote]=[ax].[ECORESPRODUCTTRANSLATION].[NAME]--2
and a.[Item]=ab.[ITEMID]--3
and a.[CreationDate]=GETDATE()--4
and a.[CreationTime]= CONVERT(time, GETDATE())--5
and a.active= 1--6
and a.Gruop=''--7
where ab.TRANSACTIONSTATUS !=1
and ab.RECEIPTID !=''
and ab.COMMENT !=''
and NOT EXISTS(select * from ax.[WaitingKitchenStatus] where active= 1 and [TRANSACTIONID]=ab.COMMENT)


I got this error

Msg 120, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
The select list for the INSERT statement contains fewer items than the insert list. The number of SELECT values must match the number of INSERT columns.


What I have tried:

i'v checked from column number yes i copy only 3 from table but other column not copy from that table and even i already insert them

What magic you expect from SQL? You stated that you insert 7 fields but you select only 3. Ask yourself how SQL should solve this, what values should be inserted for the remaining 4 fields...

1 solution

Your INSERT lists 7 fields:
SQL
INSERT INTO [ax].[WaitingKitchenStatus]
(
    [TRANSACTIONID]--1
    , [LineNote]--2
    , [Item]--3
    , [CreationDate]--4
    , [CreationTime]--5
    , [active]--6
    ,[Gruop]--7
)

But the actual SELECT that provides the information only supplies 3:
SQL
SELECT ab.COMMENT
	,[ax].[ECORESPRODUCTTRANSLATION].[NAME]
    , ab.[ITEMID]
FROM ax.RetailTransactionSalesTrans ab
The system won't "invent" data. Either supply 4 NULL values as well, or only list the columns you do provide data for. (I'm guessing you are only providing the LineNote and the Item, plus a Name that has no obvious column to store it in, so you might want to think about your data a little more carefully.)

so how can i add other column which no need to copy from that table

Sorry?
You're going to have to explain in more detail - remember that we can't see your screen, access your HDD, or read your mind - we only get exactly what you type to work with.

i mean if you see after statement left
you will see i assign value to the rest columns

and a.[CreationDate]=GETDATE()--4
and a.[CreationTime]= CONVERT(time, GETDATE())--5
and a.active= 1--6
and a.Gruop=''--7

or this not work?!

E.g. add this 4 fields into your Select

No - those are comparisons. THe INSERT only adds columns that are listed in the SELECT list before the first FROM clause. If you want that data, then try something like:

SELECT ab.COMMENT
,[ax].[ECORESPRODUCTTRANSLATION].[NAME]
, ab.[ITEMID]
, GETDATE()
, CONVERT(time, GETDATE())
, 1
, ''
FROM ax.RetailTransactionSalesTrans ab
...

Or add default values to your Table Column definitions, and don't list them in the INSERT list.
