Hi!

Do you need to copy to an existing item, or can you create a new one? Are there any unique columns in that set?

Right. So there is an item A, that you want to  copy to create item B, which is going to have different values? So you want as well to work on the data from item A before using them to create item B? Is that correct?

In that case I would recommend you to use the "update item" action from Nintex Workflow. You can then bind every field from a source item with the destination, overwriting existing item.
