Here is my solution.  Definitely loved this one!  I had to do something similar in SQL to build an HR table for my work.  I ended up using a series of left joins in SQL but it was really fun to see this applied outside of database.

 

I am still mastering the macros in general.  The solution seems to have a few less tools in the macro.  I think I made mine a bit too complicated, unnecessarily but appreciate the simplicity of the solution.  Also I ended up assigning hierarch using a multirow formula, instead of leveraging the iteration number.

 

Sleak solution overall and fun problem!!!!

 

Thanks for the opportunity to learn!

Great exercise! Learned how to create an iterative macro!

Here's my solution, realised I had done this one a few weeks back but it wasn't on my Google Sheet where I am monitoring how many solutions I've completed.

Wow, that took a while, but now I know Kung Fu (aka basic macros)

This was a good learning reinforcement for iterative macros. I used one for the first time just a few weeks ago.
