Split Table-automation

I am new to Power BI. I want to run a power query on excel spreadsheet to create tables based on distinct rows in one column. For example, the following spreadsheet

 

Product

Order type

price

Total Amount

Bike

Buy

10

10

Bike

Buy

20

20

Bike

Sell

10

10

Car

Buy

10

10

Car

Sell

100

100

Truck

Sell

100

100

 

I like to split above table to have three tables Bike (three rows), Car (two rows) and Truck (one row). All new tables should have all the four columns.

I want this system to be automated. For example, if a new product is added to original table, it should create a new child table.

Hello @sa100 ,
Good morning

see this video i hope is helpful....

Many Thanks @Mahesh0016 

That is a great video and it worked

I am going to be little bit greedy. Is it theoretically possible to put a variable that stores all the distinct value in "Product" column and create a loop in the function and then with just one click creates all the tables.  if yes then next is how to do that.
