    foreach ($details->result() as $row) {
          $this->db->insert('tbl_invoices',$row);
    }

however this gives me error, can anyone please tell me how to accomplis this, thanks in advance

The error is

You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near '0) VALUES (Array)' at line 1 INSERT INTO tbl_invoices (0) VALUES (Array)

CodePudding user response:

Use unset($row->id); in the foreach loop.

 foreach ($details->result() as $row) {
           unset($row->id);
          $this->db->insert('tbl_invoices',$row);
    }
