Need help unesting/flattening a field twice within the same row

Hello,

I'm fairly new to PostgreSQL and have a situation where I need to flatten a text column to two separate columns.

Below is the query I'm using:

[code]SELECT s.CoolerShelf,
s.ShelfPosition,
FROM planogram
CROSS JOIN LATERAL UNNEST(string_to_array(shelves, ','))
WITH ORDINALITY s(CoolerShelf,ShelfPosition)
code
code;

Below is the result set from the above query:

coolershelf shelfposition

The numbering needs to start from the beginning after every open and closed parentheses. It's half working as expected but how can I accomplish this?

Thank you for all your help!
