I believe that the sequence name must be in quotes nextval('t_temp_output_product_id_seq').

Just to test that the syntax works you should be able to try:
select nextval('t_temp_output_product_id_seq');

If this works, you might want to try to above method again. If not then try the below method.

You mentioned that you were able to get all of the values into t_temp_final.
The only problem was that your product key was null correct. Maybe this will work:

update t_temp_final
set product_id = nextval('t_temp_output_product_id_seq')
where product_id is null;

Hope one of these solutions works.
