I have created one workflow rule to populate one field(workflow field update) if it is blank,but it is getting populated with WFR even if I am manuallyn entering data in that field.

I have created one workflow rule to populate one field(workflow field update)  if it is blank,but it is getting populated with WFR even if I am manually entering data in that field.
Workflow rule:
User-added image
Workflow Field Update:
User-added image
I am not able to understand I am entered criteria to check if Street field is null, then only it should trigger. Why it is overriding values that I have entered manually in street field with Workflow field update.
Please help.

Hi Sharmila,

In workflow rule, under rule criteria select 'formula evaluates to true' and select this formula 
AND( 
RecordType.Name = 'USCan Sample Request', 
ISBLANK(Street__c) 
)
Use correct API name for Street field.

Hope this helps.

Kindly mark this as solved if the reply was helpful.

Thanks,
