Parsing record into hash

[sxmwb]

hello all, I have are file with a record format that looks like the one below and I would like to process each record into a hash so that I can extract specific data. Being new to record parsing, especially something like this is interesting. Any guidance would be appricated, I have looked at tutorials and FAQs. The first record would be nice to parse for basic information but there are multiple records that end with <EOR> that I really need in the hash.

Thanks
