Status Update for Most Recent Entry in Child Rows
I'm looking to pull the "Action By" result from the most recently edited (Auto-Populated "Modified" column) Child Row and pull that Action into the "Action By" column in the (sometimes Grand)Parent Row.
I have tried IndexCollect and IndexMatch and can't quite get them to work. I've also tried to use a Max (which is why there's a Most Recent Update column) But couldn't figure out how to get that to work either.

I figured it out but want to leave the solution for those that may have the same issue -
I added the Most Recent Update to pull the most recent date of any of the descendant rows: f[Most Recent Update]=MAX(DESCENDANTS([Date Received]@row))
Then used that as the criterion for the Collect:
f[ACTION BY (formula)] =INDEX(COLLECT(DESCENDANTS([ACTION BY (formula)]@row), DESCENDANTS([Date Received]@row), [Most Recent Update]@row), 1)
