Answer 1

You should specify column names as below. It's good practice and probably solve your problem

insert into abc.employees (col1,col2) 
select col1,col2 from employees where employee_id=100; 

EDIT:

As you said employees has 112 columns (sic!) try to run below select to compare both tables' columns

select * 
from ALL_TAB_COLUMNS ATC1
left join ALL_TAB_COLUMNS ATC2 on ATC1.COLUMN_NAME = ATC1.COLUMN_NAME 
                               and  ATC1.owner = UPPER('2nd owner')
where ATC1.owner = UPPER('abc')
and ATC2.COLUMN_NAME is null
AND ATC1.TABLE_NAME = 'employees'

and than you should upgrade your tables to have the same structure.

Answer 2

The 00947 message indicates that the record which you are trying to send to Oracle lacks one or more of the columns which was included at the time the table was created. The 00913 message indicates that the record which you are trying to send to Oracle includes more columns than were included at the time the table was created. You just need to check the number of columns and its type in both the tables ie the tables that are involved in the sql.
