You need to split the word into rows and then cross tab them to get back the tabular data. Attached is the workflow demonstrating the same.

How about we directly split the string to 5 columns.

@ankit0412 another way would be using the formula tool and if contains e.g

 

IIF(Contains([Days], "M"), "M", null())
