Questions about this workflow
Can it calculate an age if only a year is given?
The action requires a date of birth. If the submission provides only a year or an unclear date, ask Notis to report that it cannot calculate.
Does it update the submission?
No. It returns the calculation for review and does not alter Canvas.
