Enhancement Request for Copy Branch action:
When copying a list item or branch, I would only like to copy over data for a single (current) version.
Use Case:
I have a Copy action to transfer employees so that they roll up to two or more departments. I only want to transfer their data in the most current version and do not want their prior versions' data to be copied as that would effect the totals for prior versions. The employee was not a transfer in the prior version so there data should not be moved.
I could see this applying to several other use cases where you do not want to impact prior versions when copying items/data in a current version.
The only workaround I see right now is to avoid using the Copy Branch action when you have multiple versions, and instead use Create action and manually copy the data which is not ideal for end users.
Let me know if there are any other workarounds I might be missing.
Thanks,
John
