I was able to set up a workflow to duplicate items i enter into one list appear in another by using the "Copy item in Current Item to List workflow. I would like the destination list (the duplicate list) to only copy a few important field such as "title" & "priority" for example. Any ideas how I can do this? i am using Sharepoint designer 2010.

Copy specific item from one list to another

Have you looked at the Create List Item action?
List = name of the list you are wanting to append to.
From there, you can specify the fields you want to populate.

So I tried this, went to the list and tried to clicked to create a new workflow....Entered "Create item in List name and selected only the title to be populated. I published it and still everything gets copied.

I created two Lists, CopyFrom and CopyTo, and both have the same columns.
When I created a new item in CopyFrom, only the fields I designated were copied over to CopyTo. Notice that ExtraColumn is empty in CopyTo.
