T-SQL Commands

I’m trying to write T-SQL command(s) that will copy data from a database with some normalized tables to two new tables in the same database.

The purpose of the employee database is to maintain the data used to track information about the work performed by the employees and the supervisor.

I need help writing the query that will copy data from the existing EmpTimesheet table into the new Task Occurrences table. The query will also copy data from the new Task Occurrences table and the existing Trusts and Topics tables into the new Employee Tasks table. Any help with the code will be greatly appreciated.

TABLES
The code shown below creates the tables.

-- Tables in existing database

	[EmployeeID] [int] NOT NULL,
	[eFirstName] [nvarchar](50) NULL,
	[eLastName] [nvarchar](50) NULL

QUERIES
The code shown below contains comments that indicate the source and destination tables.

-- Copy data into the the new Task Occurrences table. Copy data from the existing EmpTimesheet table.
DECLARE @tblTaskOccurrences TABLE (
	[TaskOccurrenceID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL,
	[TaskOccurDate] [datetime] NULL,
	[TaskOccurStartTime] [datetime] NULL,

)

INSERT INTO @tblTaskOccurrences
	(TaskOccurrenceID,
	TaskOccurDate,
	TaskOccurStartTime ,
	TaskOccurEndTime
	)
SELECT etDate, etStartTime, etEndTime
FROM tblEmpTimesheet


-- Copy data into the new Employee Tasks table. Copy data from the existing EmpTimesheet, Trusts and Topics tables into the new Employee Tasks table. Copy data from the new Task Occurrences table into the new Employee Tasks table.

The error message shown below occurs after the following query is executed:

Error:

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.


The code shown below is incomplete. I need help with the query.
