Please show us the real name of the field that you address with the column labelled "Disc Title" (as that looks like a user-defined field, see e.g.

> Hello, I've been importing some Box Sets into my music library and when I import metadata from Discogs or MusicBrainz they occasionally contain disc titles. I would like to have these disc titles appear as a column in mp3Tag when reviewing my music library but haven't been able to figure out how to show the tags. When I check the Extended tags I do see the DISCTITLE field filled in but can't figure out how to display it as a column. I've been able to customize my column display via View --\> …

You may also realize that the action "Replace" does not allow format strings and therefore field references are no valid input.

To copy data from one field to another, use an action of the type "Format value" or Convert\>Tag-Tag.
