XSLT 1.0 - Use delimiter to split fields inside for-each loop

Question

I have an XML file which needs transformation. I was able to build the XSLT file which worked in the first scenario without delimiter but now in the second scenario, there is a delimiter + field which needs to split into two fields.

Here is the source XML in my second scenario; the delimeter + is on the "Group/Group/Details/Section/Field/'FieldName='{STATION.Comments}'/value" field:

Here is my XSLT 1.0 file in first scenario where no delimeter was added:

</xsl:stylesheet>

This is the desired output with separate fields using the delimiter. Delimiter use to create two fields in one for itemid and second for SalesUNIT:

    </Header>
    <Body>
        <MessageParts>
            <SalesOrder xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dynamics/2008/01/documents/SalesOrder">

                    <PurchOrderFormNum>PO</PurchOrderFormNum>
                    <ReceiptDateRequested>2019-08-01</ReceiptDateRequested>
                    <SalesLine class="entity">
                        <ItemId>SWBP169-10</ItemId>
                        <SalesQty>47</SalesQty>
                        <SalesUnit>EA</SalesUnit>
                    </SalesLine>
                    <SalesLine class="entity">
                        <ItemId>Y19CFC</ItemId>
                        <SalesQty>18</SalesQty>
                        <SalesUnit>EA</SalesUnit>
                    </SalesLine>
                </SalesTable>
            </SalesOrder>
        </MessageParts>
    </Body>
</Envelope>

Thanks in advance.

If the source will always contain two values separated by + , you can extract the first value using:

substring-before(Value, '+')

and the second by:

substring-after(Value, '+')
