The Multi-Row formula tool should be used to cascade that value down! Something along the lines of:

IF [Type]=Null() THEN [Row-1: Type] ELSE [Type] ENDIF

Based on reply from @alexnajm , I usually put a record ID before processing and a Sort to make sure the Empty value for "Type" is on downward.

In the multi-row tool, we need to do Group as well.
