Automations, in my experience so far, are very finicky. Try using a formula-date field to automatically calculate your "tomorrow" date; and use that when pushing a date field into a field in a table.
I have had to rebuild automations which mysteriously do not populate the data I required, after making multiple "updates" to an automation - so one good test is to figure out the entire automation and rebuild it and test with the new one (then do all the naming and commenting after you ensure it works).
A screenshot of your automation setup would also be helpful here.

- Hi QuickBasePros_IDS,
The issue you encountered with automations not populating data was a bug and has been resolved. You shouldn't have to rebuild automations anymore.
If you encounter this issue in the future, just open your automation and then save it. That should resolve the error.
Best,
