Why is there no “Copy” Event Type for `After Record Submit`?  Am I missing something here?

what I need to achieve is that when a transaction is _copied_ the child records (a custom record type) are also copied.

You'll probably have to do that via script

because it would involve creating a second copy of the custom record (I doubt you can have it attached to multiple parent records)

yeah I am doing it as a WF custom action script

but it needs to get _triggered_ by Copy event

Have a copy event set a custom field - and use create + the copy field to trigger it

Yeah, that’s the route I’m pursuing.  Glad I’m on the right track.  Thanks <@UER9Q3SGM>

I just found it odd that Copy appears in that drop-down for Trigger On Entry but not on After Record Submit

well, it's no longer a copy event when you are submitting it. Just when you are copying the record itself to start creating a new one.
