Column split

Hi Community..!!
I want solution for the below problem.

invoice

IP123/456
IP345/123
OP456/345
IP234/234
OP234/567
OP897/345

Please refer the above table.

I wanted to split the column in such away that , text starting with IP should fall in one column and text starting with OP should fall in 2nd column.
Could anyone help me out to achieve this ?

If you need a DAX solution then add two columns

 

IP = 
IF(  LEFT(Table3[invoice],2) = "IP",Table3[invoice] )
OP = 
IF(  LEFT(Table3[invoice],2) = "OP",Table3[invoice] )
