Try this

| makeresults
| eval temp="XYZ,2,0,3,yzr"
| eval temp = split(temp,",")
| mvexpand temp
| eval status = case (temp=2 ,"error code 2 ", temp=3 ,"errorcode 3",temp = 0 , "error code 0",if(isstr(temp),"yes","no")=="yes" ,temp)

You can use this in caluclated fields in props.conf by specifying like this

EVAL-status = case (temp=2 ,"error code 2 ", temp=3 ,"errorcode 3",temp = 0 , "error code 0",if(isstr(temp),"yes","no")=="yes" ,temp)

Minor cosmetic correction:

EVAL-status = case (temp=2 ,"error code 2 ", temp=3 ,"errorcode 3",temp = 0 , "error code 0",isstr(temp), ,temp)
