is there a way of adding a new record (add data) as a copy of an existent record (read data), and specifying only the values of the columns that should be modified ?

Dear Ricardo,
In general there is no such option in the system unless you use all those dozens of columns in Add data element. Other than that, yes, it can be implemented using script tasks in process or develop such functionality separately .

Dear Ricardo,
You can read all the columns of the existing record with the process. Next, use Add data element to pull all the read values into a new record with specifying the required values in particular columns manually in the element settings.

Dean Parrett,
Thanks for your reply. The problem is that besides Id I need to change only three columns... The object has tenths of columns, and I have to select all of them and specify the value for each one. It would be nice if I could specify only the columns that will receive new values, and keep the others with the values read with "read data" (copy the whole record, changing only some columns) . Is it possible ? Or do I have to use a script task ?
