is it possible to get an employee`s manager hierarchy count from Success factors Odata ?

[RaviRIyer]

I am querying compound employee api, is there a field that shows what an employee`s management hierarchy is ?

i need this to set a process variable for a looping process call so i know how many iterations i have to do for an employee to get all his management chain, because it will change based on if he is a employee or a manager or a senior manager. 

Using SAP CPI for this.

if not possible, then that leaves me with an iterative querying till i get no more managers ?

Any thoughts or recommendations here ?
