I have a column TD_SUB_ACNT_CODE in Oracle table. I want to split the details in this column in two columns namely Debit and Credit. How could i use the same column for this purpose?

The column contains the following data:

E0516001
E0522003
E0522004
A0402004
E0522002
A0402004

Here the account code A0402004 should be displayed separately in Credit column, and the other details in Debit column.


Kindly sugget?
