I have searched for a ssolution to copy a list item in a top site to a list in a subsite. Unfortunately are there no workable solution. This is the configuration
SharePoint 2013 Standard server
In the top site an Issue tracking list with customized columns for projectnumber. I want to copy a list item to a subsite with the projectnumber as the last part of the url being the projectnumber. The list in the subsite should be an issue tracking list with the same columns as the list in the topsite.
Is the best solution a workflow or a coded solution? Anyone have an example of such a solution?

How about the DataViewWebPart.
If the list names are same through out the site this will be easy to achieve.
if you are using SP 2013 then you can use search query webpart.
I have a solution that is OK with the customer however I have to do some manual work now, I would appreciate some help.
The solution is now to use the CQWP and filter the results with a custom column where the value of the list items to be displayed in the subsite is starting with the sitename of the subsite with the CQWP. I can do it manually by adding the name of the subsite as the filtervalue. The challenge is that there will be 100+ subsites with CQWP.

My only option for solving this is by usage of a SharePint Designer workflw inside which I execute a REST API call to get it done. Anyone has accomplished this?
As soon as there’s time, I’ll try this and let you know…

Thanks Graig,
The K2 is not an option due to it is a subscription with a large annual cost. I have found a possible solution using PowerShell as this is a customer with onprem of SharePoint 2013.
Hi Manjunatha,
I want a solution that is for choices of list items based on value in a site column. If I read your post correct this copies all items. Am I correct? (I am not a developer myself, I will discuss with my team tomorrow).
Best regards, Ove
