Hi Ann,
As Mukesh proposes, it is always good with a waiting time between navigating and reading or writing. But, depending of the UI, I'd stick to slightly more generous values, such as anything between 1 and 5 seconds, sometimes even longer. This is of course depending on the application you are running and the speed of the network connection.
Unrelated, but perhaps nice to know:
As a general rule, I'd avoid keeping the default names of your actions. I also tend to avoid duplicate names. So the 'Navigate1' and 'Navigate2' stages could be called 'Focus and Click' and perhaps even the 'Write Date' actions could get better names. If you later run your process in production and inspect the log to analyze an error that may have occurred there, unique names will prove to be very handy, whilst duplicate names make it harder to find where things went south.

Happy coding!

Hi Ann Fajardo - Make sure the Window is Activated at the start - I hope you are already doing that - Sometimes the input fields does require simulation key strokes to get working, You can write these dates through Navigate Stage as well - Focus on the Element - Take 0.2 to 0.5 of arbitrary pause and send Global send keys on the Root Element.
