Cause

Workaround

• Option 1: Use Copy Features by itself.
  
  To copy all input features from one feature class to another feature class:
  
  Run the Copy Features tool, found through Data Management > Features > Copy Features.
  
  
• Option 2: Use Copy Features in conjunction with Make Features Layer.
  
  To create a new feature class with only a subset of features or fields:
  
  1. Run the Make Feature Layer tool, found at Data Management Tools > Layers and Table Views > Make Feature Layer. Make Feature Layer creates a temporary layer in memory that stores the features of your input layer. This tool allows a selection of features using a SQL expression and gives the user the ability to hide and modify fields and field names.
  
  2. Run Copy Features.
  
  3. When asked to specify the input layer, select the temporary layer created by the Make Feature Layer tool.
