How to split column with Multiple information

Hi All,

 

I have a data source as an excel file which has a particular column having multiple information in it.

I want to split the column in different columns. However the challenge i am facing is that some rows in the column have coupon information and some do not. so when i split column with delimiter the row which does not have coupon information should return null instead of filling with VAT information. Can you suggest a workaround in M for this?

If you add custom columns for each sub-field using Text.BetweenDelimiters to find the specific info, for example,  

Text.BetweenDelimiters([Total with vat], "Free Shipping", ";") that should do it.
