Remove first level from PATH

Hello,

 

I`ve created a report using the PATH function in order to enable RLS viewing options.

What I don`t like is that it`s listing the current user in the hierarchy and I need the logged in user to only be able to see data about employees reporting to them.

Any suggestions?

Adding a sample of my data below and the desired result.

@pbirookie , Try a new column

New column = substitute([path],"|"&[ID],"")

Thank you for this simple and great suggestion, @amitchandak !

It works great for this column.

Still, when I`m using the userprincipalname () function to view as one of my users, I can still see their own names listed. 

Can you please advise how I can solve this?
