Hello,

I have 2 lists in the same site collection.  I need to take the items whose year is 2021 from List A and copy them into List B.  I assume a query function is involved but am not sure how to go about setting that up.  I am able to create a simple 'copy list item' workflow that I can run on each individual item but that will take me forever and I would like to be able to send all 2021 from List A into List B in one fell swoop.

Hi @erinhanlon75,

 

What you need is a Site Workflow (Navigate to Site Contents > Nintex Workflow > Create Site Workflow) with a start variable to indicate the YEAR value you want to copy as shown below : 

 

To configure the Year as a start variable so that you can run it for different year if needed :

 

Note : Don't forget the boundaries and limits supported by SharePoint when you request large list.

 

Hope that helps.
