 This error occurs when you try to insert data whose length is larger than the destination column. Here the column role I defined in destination was of length 20 while the data i was trying to insert in that column was larger. When I altered the table, it worked.

Use below query to alter your destination table.

Alter table wallmart.dbo.item

Alter column Role varchar(50) not null
