Have function run daily on specific sheet in Google Sheets

I am copying some data from a sheet on one spreadsheet to a sheet on a separate spreadsheet. I want this function to run everyday, but I only want it to run on the sheets that the user has manually run it on. There are other sheets in the source Spreadsheet that have private information that cannot be shared on the destination Spreadsheet.

function onOpen(e) {
 SpreadsheetApp.getUi()
     .createMenu('My Menu')
     .addItem('Create Read-Only', 'copyInfo')
     .addToUi();
}

// Copies all info to a new sheet in Check Submission
function copyInfo() {
 
 var copySheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
 var sheetName=copySheet.getName();
 var pasteSpreadsheet = SpreadsheetApp.openById("1NXmdq6yCKC6oiDAQNXcovj85697__rCeVJiIT_ou_gI")

 //Create new sheet if one doesn't exist
 var newSheet = pasteSpreadsheet.getSheetByName(sheetName);

   if (newSheet != null) 
   pasteSpreadsheet.deleteSheet(newSheet);
   newSheet = pasteSpreadsheet.insertSheet();
   newSheet.setName(sheetName);

 //Copy and paste data
 
 // Clear the Google Sheet before copy
 newSheet.clear({contentsOnly: true});

 // get source range
 var source = copySheet.getRange("B2:B");
 var values = source.getValues();
 // get destination range
 var destination = newSheet.getRange(1,1,values.length,values[0].length);
  // copy values to destination range
 destination.setValues(values)
}
