insert into Gl_Transaction values(001,001,0010010010006,'Furniture',103 ,'Opening Balance on 01-02-2013',   '2013-02-01',   0000000026,'    JV',    20000.00,   0.00    ,NULL,  NULL,   NULL    ,12300)

Just read the error message carefully. It says "can only be specified when a column list is used and IDENTITY_INSERT is ON." You have the second half but you need the first half. You need to specify the column list.

SQL

INSERT INTO gl_Transaction (identity_field, field1, field2, field3, ...)
VALUES (001, 001, ...)
