Assuming I understand you, in this case you will need to use capink's proposed solution. Reason: the Single Field Edit action specifies the destination field. If that destination doesn't exist then the action will fail regardless of what the template does or doesn't do. The action condition must check for the existence of the destination to prevent the action from running.
