2. on the target server, you can then issue a T-SQL statement:

This should work just fine.

BCP from One Table to Another table in different servers in SQL Server 2008 R2

BCP will almost certainly the fastest, however it is not transactional and the error trapping is rather poor. It's pretty easy to use though, let's say you have server1 and server2 each having a the_database and the_table with the same structure.

• From server1 go to your command line, start->run->cmd not Microsoft SQL Management Studio.
• Type: bcp the_database.dbo.the_table out c:\the_data.txt -T -E
• Just hit Enter on all the prompts
• Wait for it, and copy the_data.txt to c:\ on server2
• On server2 TRUNCATE the_table (unless you want to append, but watch for constraint problems)
• On server2, once again go to command line
• Type: bcp the_database.dbo.the_table in c:\the_data.txt -T -E
• Magic! Your data has been imported

That will be your fastest solution. You can also use the IMPORT or EXPORT wizards inside of Microsoft SQL Management Server which is more of a GUI way to do the same thing, but the cmd way will be the fastest way to just copy massive amounts of data (millions of rows). If you simply type bcp from command line you'll see lots of options.

Nothing wrong with doing bulk insert across servers for but raw caveman power 'copy data fast' this is the fastest way to do it, imho.

How to copy a SQL table to another server with index and keys?

Obviously there is a bug in Microsoft SSMS. With your method 1 SSMS 2016 still executes the standard CREATE TABLE query in the background, although you edit it in the wizard. My recommendation is that you download and install the latest SSMS version. Here is the link to it. After that you can use your method 1 without problems and it will work without problems.

Searching for a way to copy table data from one SQL Server database to another (concerning Identity and Foreign Keys)

Using the vendor's SQL Server database schema and loading the data yourself is typically the correct approach for migrating to SQL Server with packaged software. But there may be additional guidance available from the vendor.

Instead of trying to load the tables in an order that is compatible the foreign key constraints, which is not always even possible, disable all the foreign keys before loading the database and re-enable them after. See eg Temporarily disable all foreign key constraints
