It's already working:

    INSERT INTO junk.wm_260_billables2 (account_id, code, info)
    SELECT account_id, 'test_' || uuid_generate_v4(), info
    FROM junk.wm_260_billables1;


BUT.. I'm getting a very long UUID - Would like some smaller

    test_ea8bacbe-fa3c-4072-b511-643a56feb40e


that would be a v4 uuid, like you asked for in the above code.

test=# select uuid_generate_v4();
           uuid_generate_v4

afaik, all UUID's are 128 bit numbers expressed in hexadecimal in that format. This is an ISO standard.
