I think Error lies in the following statement

INSERT VALUES (L.F, L.DESCRIP) 

THE STATEMENT SHOULD BE LIKE THIS

  INSERT (F.PRODID,F.DESCRIP)
VALUES(L.F,L.DESCRIP)

The Error will be:

Columns used in ON condition cannot be used in UPDATE.
You cannot update the same column which you are using in the ON clause.
