Splunk Search

How can I take keywords from a field in a search, compare them to another field in the search and the field values that match the keyword, bring them together?

Hi All,

I have two data fields, called "Issues" and "Complete issue" which look like this.

What I want to do is that I want to use keywords like SAP,MCAFEE,AD,WINDOWS,USER*INFORMATION ( I want to use both of these words to get involved in the search), VPN from the field called "Issues", and look for them in the field called "Complete issue" and turn the search results to look like this. In simple words, use the keywords from "Issues", look for them in "Complete issue" and whichever search field contains any of those words, bring them together just like below.

How can I do this?

Thank you in advance
