Renaming image files on import - numbering pattern - missing token

For years I have been renaming my image files when importing them into Lightroom using the following pattern:

name-yyyymmdd-#

where # counts the images taken on that day and numbers them accordingly (Ex: name-20221120-1, name-20221120-2, name-20221121-1, name-20221121-2).

In Lightroom, this can be easily accomplished in the Filename Template Editor using the "Date" and "Sequence #" templates.

In Capture One 21, I cannot find a token that replicates this pattern. When I select one of the "digit counter" options, the images are counted per import (and then continuous the count on the next import if I don't reset the import counter), not per day.

Is there a way to replicate the renaming and numbering pattern I've used in Lightroom?

I use the very same scheme and so far I haven't been able to achieve that in one step, so I first import with a temporary scheme and later rename for each day resetting each time the counter. The pitfall is that renaming is ridiculously slow. I don't think I have alternatives since my sources are three different camera bodies and I want to have the daily sequence ordered by time.

Maybe I can somehow bulk copy this to one of the metadata fields available in the Rename Photo dialog and then do the bulk rename football legends
