Writing formulas

Hello, I have several formulas in my configuration window-is there a way to write one where it will exclude some data that will get captured in the first part of the statement?

 

Example- my formula is- if startswith([Application Notes], 'PEND APP INST')then 'Pending Application Instructions' else       there is data that will be captured in this statement that I want to exclude- there are specific details of the data I want to exclude that I can write into a formula if needed- I just was not sure if that could be done and what the formula would look like. Thanks
