</div>

**CASE:**

- I have a screen with a Note component + a Stopwatch component on it
- The inputs from these are linked to user-specific columns in a Table
- A BUTTON fires an action workflow that adds row to a different table with the values from these inputs

**OUTPUT:**  
All the inputs post as blanks to the other table. The notes/ the stopwatch duration value etc.

The action is able to add other values to the other sheet, but none of the values from the screen are found.

I’m not entirely sure as I haven’t used it, but does a stopwatch component’s output written to the user-specific fields before you fire the action?
