У вас есть фиксированное количество столбцов, поэтому вы можете сделать это, используя join
s. Думаю, это лог c:
select t.*,
(case when t.ManagerId is null then 0
when tp.ManagerId is null then 1
when tpp.ManagerId is null then 2
when tppp.ManagerId is null then 3
end) as employeelevel,
coalesce(tppp.ManagerId, tpp.ManagerId, tp.ManagerId, t.ManagerId) as lvl0,
(case when t.ManagerId is null then 0
when tp.ManagerId is null then coalesce(t.ManagerId, 0)
when tpp.ManagerId is null then coalesce(tp.ManagerId, 0)
when tppp.ManagerId is null then coalesce(tpp.ManagerId, 0)
end) as lvl1,
(case when t.ManagerId is null then 0
when tp.ManagerId is null then 0
when tpp.ManagerId is null then coalesce(t.ManagerId, 0)
when tppp.ManagerId is null then coalesce(tp.ManagerId, 0)
end) as lvl2,
(case when t.ManagerId is null then 0
when tp.ManagerId is null then 0
when tpp.ManagerId is null then 0
when tppp.ManagerId is null then coalesce(t.ManagerId, 0)
end) as lvl3
from t left join
t tp
on t.ManagerId = tp.EmployeeID left join
t tpp
on tp.ManagerId = tpp.EmployeeID left join
t tppp
on tpp.ManagerId = tppp.EmployeeID ;
