Retrieve only managers with at least one report having a specific legal entity

Hello experts, we would like to create an OTBI report with a list of managers (only managers name and person number). In particular we would like to retrieve only managers having within their team at least one member/report with the Italian Legal Entity.
Do you know if this is feasible? If yes, could you please share us some details on how to achieve this purpose?
Thanks a lot
Best regards
Oriana

Hi @Oriana L.
I've developed the sample reports. which you can configure (unarchive) to the '/Shared Folders/Custom' location in your non production environment and see the logic.
You have to put a filter on 'EMP and MGR - Filter' to bring only Italian LE.
Modify the 'EMP and MGR - Filter' to filter for Italian LE Only. Just add the value in the highlighted in Yellow.
If you are not keeping the Reports in '/Shared Folders/Custom' then the report filter for the Report 'MGR having 1 direct report for selected LE' needs to be adjusted as highlighted in Yellow and need to select 'EMP and MGR - Filter' Report from the correct location.
Reports:
Hope this help.
Thank you.

Hi Oriana,
There is no direct way of getting this information in OTBI. You can either make use of LSQL if you really want to use OTBI or write a BIP query to get this data.
Thanks.

Hi @Oriana L.
This might be possible using OTBI but needed multiple reports. Final Report will be calling another report as a filter.
Please find below high level steps which might be helpful to achieve the Report.
- First Report which will be used as Filter: Define an OTBI Analysis which will contain following fields: Person Number, Person Name, Manager Person Number, Manager Name. Now filter this report to active employees and also legal entity = Italian LE and Manger Person Number is NOT NULL.
- Final Report (which will give manager Name & Number): Define another report and here choose the Person Number, Person Name. Apply the filter Person Number = Manager Person Number of the Report1.
Hope this help.
Thank you.

Hi @Bhaskar Konar thanks a lot for your answer. Can I please ask you what manager field I need to use in order to retrieve only manager's direct employees? In Addition, how can I manage the requirement "managers with at least 1 employee with the Italian Legal Entity"? This is because I don't want to retrieve managers having only direct reports with a legal entity different from the italian one. Thanks in advance for this further support.
Best regards

Hi @Oriana L.
Here are the steps that you need to follow:
- Report1 will be used as Filter: Define an OTBI Analysis using assignment subject area which will contain following fields: Person Number, Person Name, Manager Person Number, Manager Name. Now filter this report to active employees and also legal entity = Italian LE and Manger Person Number is NOT NULL. The filter "legal entity = Italian LE" will ensure all the employees are from Italian LE.
- Final Report (which will give manager Name & Number): Define another report using the same SA and here choose the Person Number, Person Name. Apply the filter Person Number = Manager Person Number of the Report1.
Hope this clarify.
Thank you.
