Hello guys I hope you are all having a great week

I work in a hotel chain and we provide transportation services, but unfortunaly for one of the contries where we have bussiness the type of transporation service provided comes in single string and I cant seem to break it down to make sense of it...

The structure of this string goes as follows
 

tvservice63_U8956 
tvservice63_L45
tvservice63_X15
tvservice63_T63

the letter after the "_" represents the type of transportation and the number following is the amount charged

What I want to do is the following

stringserviceBILL
tvservice63_U8956 U8956 
tvservice63_L45L45
tvservice63_X15X15
tvservice63_T63T63

 

separate the type of service and the amount of the bill I know I can use split or rex to separate by the "_" but Im lost at how to tell splunk to get the letter and the amount charged... thank you so much to those who can help me
