Hi @vern 

 

You could add all of those values to a Text Input tool then just a join tool on your data set. For any values that join (where the value would match), add a formula tool from the J output that sets the field to 0. For the records that don't join, use a formula tool to set the field to the WAGE_AMOUNT. 

 

Hope this helps!
