Still learning new tools, Regex. Took a long winded route to split into Header set and Details set. For the header set, I noticed below -

 

| 15 |123-43-92508|#### | 15 | | |1|4|9|1|6|8|1|8|2|9|1|9| | |1|4|9|1|6|8|1|5|8|2|0 | |

 

VAT ID 123-43-92508 has 15 transactions but the line details under it has only 9 rows. Maybe I need to extract the Total amount from the header of    |1|4|9|1|6|8|1|8|2|9|1|9| and match to the summary total of rows appearing below.

 

Overall a great learning start for my journey towards Advanced certification.

I admit this was quite a challenge to untangle :)  Thank you, @AYXAcademy

I followed a similar approach as in the solution provided.

 Regex for the win! Prefer dates to be date fields, so solution isn't an exact match.
