Code:
a="123|xyz|datetime|count"

oifs="$IFS" # save default input field delimiter

IFS="|"  # change it
val=( $a )  # parse input to the array using $IFS

IFS=$oifs   # return $IFS, if need use default ...
echo "${val[0]}"
echo "${val[1]}"

val[0]="some"
val[2]="3th"

res=${val[@]}   # all values from array
res=${res// /|} # convert all spaces => |  (values can't include spaces in this case)
echo "res:$res"
