Your table dbo.Sup_Item_Cat has a foreign key reference to another table. The way a FK works is it cannot have a value in that column that is not also in the primary key column of the referenced table.
If you have SQL Server Management Studio, open it up and sp_help ‘dbo.Sup_Item_Cat‘. See which column that FK is on, and which column of which table it references. You’re inserting some bad data.

The answer on this page by Mike M. is correct:
The way a FK works is it cannot have a value in that column that is not also in the primary key column of the referenced table.
What is missing from that answer is: You must build the table containing the primary key first.
You must insert data into the parent table, containing the primary key, before attempting to insert data into the foreign key.
After adding the primary key data, your foreign key data in the child table must conform to the primary key field in the parent table.

You are trying to insert a record with a value in the foreign key column that doesn’t exist in the foreign table.
For example: If you have Books and Authors tables where Books has a foreign key constraint on the Authors table and you try to insert a book record for which there is no author record.

That error means that the table you are inserting data into has a foreign key relationship with another table. Before data can be inserted, the value in the foreign key field must exist in the other table first.

The problem is not with client_id from what I can see. It looks more like the problem is with the 4th column, sup_item_cat_id
I would run
sp_helpconstraint sup_item
and pay attention to the constraint_keys column returned for the foreign key FK_Sup_Item_Sup_Item_Cat to confirm which column is the actual problem, but I am pretty sure it is not the one you are trying to fix. Besides ‘123123’ looks suspect as well.

All the fields have to match EXACTLY.
For example, sending ‘cat dog’ is not the same as sending ‘catdog’.
To troubleshoot this: Script out the FK code from the table you ae inserting data into, take note of the «Foreign Key» that has the constraints and make sure those fields’ values match EXACTLY as they were in the table throwing the FK Constraint error.
Fix the fields.

My insert value fields contained tabs and spaces that were not obvious to the naked eye. I had created my value list in Excel, copied, and pasted it to SQL, and run queries to find non-matches on my FK fields.
The match queries did not detect there were tabs and spaces in my FK field, but the INSERT did recognize them and it continued to generate the error.
I tested again by copying the content of the FK field in one record and pasting it into the insert query. When that record also failed, I looked closer at the data and finally detected the tabs/spaces.
Once I cleaned removed tabs/spaces, my issue was resolved.

Double check the fields in the relationship the foreign key is defined for. SQL Server Management Studio may not have had the fields you wanted selected when you defined the relationship. This has burned me in the past.

In my case, I was inserting the values into the child table in the wrong order:
For the table with 2 columns: column1 and column2, I got this error when I mistakenly entered:
INSERT INTO Table VALUES('column2_value', 'column1_value');
The error was resolved when I used the below format:-
INSERT INTO Table (column2, column1) VALUES('column2_value', 'column1_value');

The problem was reproducible and intermittent for me using mybatis.
I had correct DB configuration (PK, FK, auto increment etc)
I had correct order of insertions (parent records first); in debug I could see the parent record inserted with respective PK and just after that next statement failed with inserting the child record with the correct FK inside.
The problem was fixed by reseeding identity with
DBCC CHECKIDENT ('schema.customer', RESEED, 0);
DBCC CHECKIDENT ('schema.account', RESEED, 0);
The code that failed before started to work.

The error you’re encountering is due to a violation of the FOREIGN KEY constraint FK_Sup_Item_Sup_Item_Cat when attempting to insert a value into the client_id column of the sup_item table. The error message indicates that the value you’re trying to insert does not exist in the referenced table Sup_Item_Cat in the dev_bo database.
To resolve this issue, you should ensure that the value you’re inserting into the client_id column matches an existing value in the referenced table Sup_Item_Cat. You can verify the available values in the Sup_Item_Cat table and make sure you’re providing a valid client_id.
Here’s an example query to retrieve the existing client_id values from the Sup_Item_Cat table:
SELECT client_id
FROM dbo.Sup_Item_Cat;
Review the output of this query and confirm that the value you’re trying to insert into the client_id column exists in the Sup_Item_Cat table.
To identify which other tables and columns a particular table depends on, you can use the information from the Keys folder and Depends on dbForge Studio for SQL Server.

I experienced same issue while running the query:
INSERT INTO [dbo].[work_flow_actions] ([work_flow_id] ,[actions_id]) VALUES (70004, 150044)
Meanwhile, I confirmed that the values 70004 and 150044 exist in the corresponding tables.
I fixed this by including the database name as follows:
INSERT INTO [TIS].[dbo].[work_flow_actions] ([work_flow_id] ,[actions_id]) VALUES (70004, 150044)

Are you absolutely sure that ItemId 92439 exists in the Item table, and not just in ItemUnits?
or
Is your select statement returning null?

It looks like you need a row in ItemUnits with that ID first — what does the SELECT statement part of your insert return? No rows?
Also, is there a trigger on the ItemSavedUnits table that could be causing problems?

Your foreign key constraint violation doesn’t appear to deal with the ItemSavedUnits table — the violation exception is being thrown by the constraint on the ItemSaved table, not the ItemSavedUnits table. Is there a trigger on ItemSavedUnits that’s trying to insert into ItemSaved?
