Can Alteryx read the whole line then doing 'Find & Replace''?

Hi all,

 

To explain further, we use “Find Replace” function to tag item nature with key words given in item description.

 

We have key words priority in sequence which normally works fine if only one key word is located in item description. E.g

 

Key words

Person

Orange

Mike

Banana

Jane

Apple

Jason

 

If more than one key word in item description with “Apple” in it (highest priority), Alteryx supposed to give the name result as Jason cuz we define the key words priority as above. It should not stop until the last criteria searching finished.

However, the result turns to person name Jane. Seems that Alteryx will not read the full item description but will stop when it locate any of the key word in the first rows. This will lead to wrong tagging result if people have more than 1 key word in item description.

 

Kindly advise whether we get the Alteryx logic correctly and how this can be fixed. Thanks.
