It's not clear how the health field is calculated. One way is what @ITWhisperer showed but it won't match your mockup results - you have health=bad all acros the board.

Are you saying that you want a health field that has "Bad" in for all the events if any of the events have status="Issue"?

It's missing the fields value if all Ok. 

I need Health field to be populated with Ok if all status field have all Ok value.

Use the eval command to create a field.

| eval Health = if(status="Issue", "Bad", "Ok")
