Classifying the Data

Hi All,

 

Got this data set and in case of Food want to populate only "Classification 2" field as Non Veg and "Classification 1" should have nothing. Please advise. 

 Type 1Type 2Classification 1Classification 2
FruitsVEG Veg Only 
VeggiesVEG Veg Only 
FoodVEGNon VegVegNon Veg

Thanks in advance

Here is one solution using the Formula tool with two conditional statements.  I gave your first column the title "Type" - and you can clean the null downstream later.

Thanks @summarizer  for your answer but the problem I have is Values in "Type 1" and "Type 2" are dynamic and what I am after is if both these have data (which is dynamic) then my final data set should only populate Type 1 field and discard Type 2. Please disregard Classification 1 & 2 fields.

Thanks

Visuals are always helpful. Can you redo your original graphic to show your ideal output?  It sounds like maybe you need some conditional formula still whether in a multi row or a regular formula tool.
