Here is my version based on yours. Changes:

  • A parameter is used instead of the hardcoded file name - it’s more convenient to change the file name in one place instead of each of 5 actions it’s hardcoded in
  • [Days Noted] calculated using the “Regular expression” action instead of expression
  • Replaced “Merge” with “Lookup” because what is done is actually lookup and because “Lookup” can generate an error if no lookup value found.
  • [Owner Code] calculated using keepafter() with a negative position index (in this case it looks back from the end of text)
  • Added “Halt on data type mismatch” to fail workflow in cases when a lookup value wasn’t found in order to prevent bad data from propagation into the target file
