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?
Best regards,

Thanks Keith, I was hoping for a workflow solution and I have found out that I am not alone seeing the obstacle with workflow. Good to know that I am not alone 🙂
I discovered there are some third party tools to accomplish this. I didn’t research the cost.
I had same problem with moving items from list to library, according to my search it is not possible with workflow; however, I read somewhere that it can be done by Event Handlers. But, personally I didn’t try it. Instead I moved items by writing code in PowerShell!
I’ve been trying to figure out the same thing. I don’t see how it can be done with workflow. The options for where to create a list item don’t go across sites. I hope somebody smarter than me responds because I have the same issue.
