awk '{gsub("ABC|XYZ|MNO|KMN",ORS"&");sub(/^\n/,"")} 1' Input_file

1|2|3|test|james|ke the one|value
1|2|3|test|the value|comp

echo "a|b|c|d|test|123|same" | awk 'BEGIN {FS=OFS="|"} { $3=$NF;NF--;print }'

For loop # to print all the values except last value ( condition is i < NF)

$ cat file
xyz123abc509kai330
aca203
ald390afa000als303

Output:
$ fold -w6 file
xyz123
abc509
kai330
aca203
ald390
afa000
