You can save 4 characters by doing this...

=IF(OR($A2="benchmark",$A2="benchmark folder",$A2="physical
name",$A2="label part"), "n", "y")

it doesn't check for case, so you don't have to cap the first
letter...

The other thing you can do is make a table of what you are checking, I
put it in L1:L4

=IF(ISERROR(MATCH(A2,L1:L4)), "y", "n")
