I think your best option for this would be to use Pipelines to build a process to copy the records, rather than trying to build it in a button. To copy records from one table to another, you first have to query the table for those records and then either loop through each one, creating it's copy in the destination table OR format them as an Array/CSV and import them in bulk. If you're not familiar with the Quickbase API, Pipelines will make this much easier for you.

If you need this to work on a trigger, you can still create a button that will check a checkbox and use the change to that checkbox as your trigger in Pipelines.
