You'll want to use the multi-row tool to assign letters based on the previous row.

I've attached a sample workflow.

Hi @rouzu,

This is my version of solution for your query as You want to fill all you remaining "Class" field with A to E. I have used Multi-row formula and changed the Num Rows to 5 to traverse upto 5 letters(A,B,C,D,E) only.

Note: I have already given A to E to first 5 names as per your given inputs after then this will assign A to E to all the names as per the solution.

Best,

Vishwa
