Breaking Down Category Structure in a Saved Search

edited Jan 3, 2020 12:31AM in Search / Reporting 1 comment

I am trying to create a catalog for one of our customers and they require an excel sheet with items categorized in multiple columns.  So if I run a saved search for items and use the Category field, I get:

Equipment & Supply Group > Technical Rescue > Carabiners & Connectors > Aluminum Carabiners

My excel sheet has 5 columns for categories and subcategories.  I want the first column to say "Equipment & Supply Group", the second to say "Technical Rescue", the third to say "Carabiners & Connectors" and the fourth to say "Aluminum Carabiners".  In this example the 5th column would be blank. 

Does anyone know what formula I could use to break up the category structure by ">"?

Howdy, Stranger!
