Hi, I'm new in Power BI. I'm working with a software that give me a report in the following format:

12:00 AM, 2;
6:30 AM, 1;
10:30 PM, 2;
Tuesday:
12:00 AM, 2;
6:30 AM, 1;
10:30 PM, 2;
Wednesday:
12:00 AM, 2;
6:30 AM, 1;
10:30 PM, 2;
Thursday:
12:00 AM, 2;
6:30 AM, 1;
10:30 PM, 2;
Friday:
12:00 AM, 2;
6:30 AM, 1;
10:30 PM, 2;
Saturday:

8:30 PM, 2;
Sunday:

7:30 AM, 1;
8:30 PM, 2;
I trying to Slpit the data into this format: 4 colums and 7 rows:
Day Stage 1 Stage 2 Stage 3
Monday 12:00 AM 6:30 AM 10:30 PM
Tuesday 12:00 AM 6:30 AM 10:30 PM
....
Sunday 12:00 AM 7:30 AM 8:30 PM
Where Stage 1 = 1; Stage 2 = 2; Stage 3 = 1; see data below
Monday:
12:00 AM, 2;
6:30 AM, 1;
10:30 PM, 2;
Any idea how I can slpitthis properly on PBI?
Thanks in advance.

Hope this helps.
Hi,
If 1 represents 2 stages, they how can you tell which is stage 1 and which is stage 3? Alternatively, can it be assumed that for every day, the time stamp will always be in the order of Stage 1, Stage 2 and then Stage 3. If my statement is correct, then what is the use of 1,2?
Hello thanks for the answer.
The software made the reports in that way. I thought always start by Stage 1, Stage 2 ... Stage N, where N should be the last one.
The data in this case:
Stage 1 = 1; means ON
Stage 2 = 2; means OFF
Stage 3 = 1; means ON
Not always is a binary value (ON/OFF) because can have Pre-ON, Pre-OFF, Stand-By etc., however in most of the case I'm using just binary (values 1 and 2).
The data came as *CSV and when I import to Power BI I had all the data in one column. I know that always after a Day is a ";" and also after every Stage Value is another ";" and the time has ","
I tried first clean the data but I'm having issues to split properly, remeber all data came in one collum as below:
Monday:
12:00 AM, 2;
6:30 AM, 1;
10:30 PM, 2;
Tuesday:
12:00 AM, 2;
6:30 AM, 1;
10:30 PM, 2;
Wednesday:
12:00 AM, 2;
6:30 AM, 1;
10:30 PM, 2;
Thursday:
12:00 AM, 2;
6:30 AM, 1;
10:30 PM, 2;
Friday:
12:00 AM, 2;
6:30 AM, 1;
10:30 PM, 2;
Saturday:
12:00 AM, 2;
7:30 AM, 1;
8:30 PM, 2;
Sunday:
12:00 AM, 2;
7:30 AM, 1;
