The workflow could not copy the item. Make sure the source and destination lists have the same columns and column settings


This error occurs when you use 'Copy List Items' Action to copy a list item from one document library to another in SharePoint 2013 Designer using SharePoint 2010 Workflow.

It can be resolved by making sure that the destination document library does not require document to be checked out for editing.

Following setting should be set to No under List Advanced settings
 Require documents to be checked out before they can be edited?
