move and Rename file to folder Powershell - batch-file

Question

I have some pdf's in a folder that I need to organize them like this:
PDF name: 123.12.123.pdf ; 102030_01.pdf; 102030_02.pdf; 123.4512.34561.23412.pdf
Now I need to create folders with the filename (without the characters removed, ex: 12345123456123412) and rename them to the following pattern: ex: P12345123456123412_V1_A0V0_T07-54-369-664_S00001.pdf
for this I have used the following code which works very well:
#Echo Off
SetLocal EnableExtensions DisableDelayedExpansion
If "%~1" == "" GoTo :EOF
For %%G In (%*) Do (For %%H In ("%%~G") Do If "%%~aH" Lss "-" (
Echo Error! %%G no longer exists.
%SystemRoot%\System32\timeout.exe /T 2 /NoBreak 1>NUL
) Else If "%%~aH" GEq "d" (For %%I In ("%%~G\*.pdf") Do Call :Sub "%%~I"
) Else If /I "%%~xG" == ".pdf" (Call :Sub "%%~G"
) Else (Echo Error! %%G is not a PDF
%SystemRoot%\System32\timeout.exe /T 2 /NoBreak 1>NUL))
GoTo :EOF
:Sub
Set "basename=%~n1"
Set "basename=%basename:.=%"
MD "%~dp1%~n1" 2>NUL
If Not ErrorLevel 1 Move /Y %1 "%~dp1%~n1\P%basename:-=%_V1_A0V0_T07-54-369-664_S00001_Volume%~x1"
Exit /B
I drag the pdfs into the .bat and it does the adjustment.
It happens that there is a case that I am not able to handle. Some pdfs need to be in the same folder, for example in the following case:
PDF name: 102030_01.pdf; 102030_02.pdf;
Note that the pdfs have the same number, only after the _ that we have the difference. In this case you would need to create a folder with the name:102030
And move the two files into it, modifying their name as follows:
102030_01.pdf -> P102030_V1_A0V0_T07-54-369-664_S00001.pdf
102030_02.pdf -> P102030_V1_A0V0_T07-54-369-664_S00002.pdf
Could anyone help?

:Sub
Set "basename=%~n1"
Set "basename=%basename:.=%"
if /i "%basename%" neq "%basename:_=%" goto sub2
MD "%~dp1%~n1" 2>NUL
If Not ErrorLevel 1 Move /Y %1 "%~dp1%~n1\P%basename:-=%_V1_A0V0_T07-54-369-664_S00001_Volume%~x1"
Exit /B
:sub2
for /f "tokens=1*delims=_" %%b in ("%basename%") do (
MD "%~dp1%%b" 2>NUL
ECHO Move /Y %1 "%~dp1%%b\P%basename:-=%_V1_A0V0_T07-54-369-664_S000%%c_Volume%~x1"
)
Exit /B
Always test on dummy data first.
This code echoes the proposed move. After verification, remove the echo keyword to activate.
Caution: My reading of the code is that - should be removed from the basename in the new name, and that _Volume should be appended to the name part, which is not shown in your examples.
Essentially, if the basename contains _ then goto sub2.
sub2 partitions the name in basename, assigning the first part to %%b and the second to %%c (See for /? from the prompt for documentation)
Then the directory is created
The md will object if the directory already exists, hence the 2>nul in the original code (suppresses error messages)
If md found that error in the original then this appears to be a problem, so the move is not executed. In the new version, it is expected that the directory may already exist, so the errorlevel processing has been removed.
