Copy Data

This task allows you to copy the data from one source to another. The source could be dynamic or static in nature. You can copy the data from the different sources as follows:

• From one element to another element. For example:- copy the user name from one field to another. 
• From one element to another attribute (entity store, work variable store, temp store) & vice versa. 
• From one function to element or attribute. For example:- copy the user’s credit score to a text element or an attribute. 
• A static value to an element or attribute.
