Thank you for the reply! I actually figured it out when I was gathering some sample data for you to reivew.
It looks like Salesforce was appending a few extra digits to the Parent Case Table ID, that are not always present in the Data Tracker table.

It seems like if I delete the 3 extra digits (15 digit ones work and 18 digit ones don't), I can get a result, so I am thinking, if I do a custom column to remove the last three digits but only if the character length = 18.
