REGEX Support Oracle text report

I am looking to get support from the Alteryx Community. I have text report from our oracle database that I want parse into columns that should look like this:

However, when I use text to columns to tool, it is just messy.

It seems like the regex tool would be the way to go, but I wasn't too sure. 

 

Can anyone help me on how I should tackle this?

I have added the sample txt file as well. Please let me know if you have any questions, thank you.

Hi @imadorkous, when inserting the file in Alteryx, select the option to read it as fixed width text file. Then you just need to click where each field begins as below:
