Hi Brittney,

This is possible, and one way to do this would be using the “Replace the input token’s value with the result” option within the substitution activity.  After you make your substitution, it will update your original token with that new value.  This way, you can always use that one token in the metadata.  In the event a substitution isn’t needed, the original token remains unaffected. 

For example, I used an OmniPage Zone OCR activity to grab a city council name (“Shafter City Council”) from a set of documents .  I then used a substitution to replace “Shatter” with “Shafter”, and it would then update the original Zone OCR token.  

With the Zone OCR token in my metadata field, it successfully replaced an incorrect spelling (“Shatter”) and assigned the correct one to that piece of metadata.  I also scanned in a document with the correct spelling without changing the activities above, and it successfully assigned the correct name to the metadata field. 

This way, you only have to use one token in your metadata and update it accordingly.  For more information on how the substitution activity works, check out this Help Article here.
