A computer-implemented method includes presenting, by a workbench application, a first user interface that includes a notes field in which free-form text may be entered by the user, receiving, by the workbench application, free-form text that the user entered in the notes field, analyzing, by the workbench application, the free-form text to identify relevant keyword(s), and presenting a second user interface for a data reporting application. The method also includes identifying, by the workbench application, one or more data entry fields of the second user interface corresponding to the keyword(s), automatically populating, by the workbench application and via an API, the one or more data entry fields of the second user interface based upon the one or more keywords, and causing, by the workbench application via the API, the linked data reporting application to store data for the one or more data entry fields in a data storage record.
