Data quality reporting using Generate Rows tool ideas

I'm pulling my Alteryx boots back on after a while now, so bear with me!😀

 

I'm checking data quality for a data set, an example of which is below..

Client_idNameAddressPhone
1Adam123 Sesame St9123 4567
2Becky[Null][Null]
3[Null]3 Rosedale Cct9456 7890

 

My desired output is this

Client_idNameAddressPhoneDQ_Issue
1Adam123 Sesame St9123 4567No issue
2Becky[Null][Null]Missing address
2Becky[Null][Null]Missing Phone
3[Null]3 Rosedale Cct9456 7890Missing name

 

...but using the Generate Rows seems to work iteratively between 2 existing values (usually numeric or date types). AM I barking up the wrong tree here?

 

The other thing I thought of would be pass each and every record through a formula tool that tests each individual DQ_Issue, then union and deduplicate, but for a million records, it might get expensive.

I think we can try something like this.
