Oracle SQL - Generate rows based on quantity column

We use pooled positions that have a max headcount assigned and I need to build a report that creates a line for each head, including the details of the incumbent if there is one or a NULL line where there is a vacancy.

Like this:

I can join the Person/Assignment tables with the Position table to generate a separate line where there is an incumbent but the part i'm struggling with, is generating a line where there is a vacancy.

I spotted another post on here that suggested using connect by but I can't get it to work.

It seems to work on its own like this:

SELECT

HAP.NAME POSITION_TITLE,
HAP.POSITION_CODE,
HAP.ACTIVE_STATUS,
HAP.POSITION_TYPE,
HAP.FTE,
LEVEL row_num

FROM

HR_ALL_POSITIONS_F_VL HAP


CONNECT BY LEVEL <= HAP.FTE
AND PRIOR HAP.POSITION_ID = HAP.POSITION_ID
AND PRIOR sys_guid() IS NOT NULL

But I'm not sure how to use it with the rest of my query (I've tried using the WHERE clause before and after the CONNECT BY but it times out either way)

SELECT 
HAP.NAME POSITION_TITLE,
HAP.POSITION_CODE,
PGF.NAME GRADE_NAME,
PGF.GRADE_CODE,
HAP.ACTIVE_STATUS,
HAP.POSITION_TYPE,
HAP.HEADCOUNT,
PAAM.ASSIGNMENT_NUMBER,
LEVEL row_num

FROM
HR_ALL_POSITIONS_F_VL HAP, 
PER_GRADES_F_VL PGF,
PER_ALL_ASSIGNMENTS_M PAAM

WHERE 

    HAP.ENTRY_GRADE_ID = PGF.GRADE_ID
AND PAAM.POSITION_ID(+) = HAP.POSITION_ID
AND      TRUNC(Sysdate) between HAP.effective_start_date AND HAP.effective_end_date
AND      TRUNC(Sysdate) between PGF.effective_start_date AND PGF.effective_end_date
AND      PAAM.effective_start_date(+) <= TRUNC(Sysdate)
AND      PAAM.effective_end_date(+) >= TRUNC(Sysdate)

CONNECT BY LEVEL <= HAP.HEADCOUNT
AND PRIOR HAP.POSITION_ID = HAP.POSITION_ID
AND PRIOR sys_guid() IS NOT NULL

You can use multiset to generate rows as per the headcount column as follows:

SELECT 
HAP.NAME POSITION_TITLE,
HAP.POSITION_CODE,
PGF.NAME GRADE_NAME,
PGF.GRADE_CODE,
HAP.ACTIVE_STATUS,
HAP.POSITION_TYPE,
HAP.HEADCOUNT,
PAAM.ASSIGNMENT_NUMBER,
Lvls.Column_value row_num

FROM
HR_ALL_POSITIONS_F_VL HAP, 
PER_GRADES_F_VL PGF,
PER_ALL_ASSIGNMENTS_M PAAM,
table(cast(multiset(select level from dual connect by  level <= hap.headcount) as sys.OdciNumberList)) lvls
WHERE 

    HAP.ENTRY_GRADE_ID = PGF.GRADE_ID
AND PAAM.POSITION_ID(+) = HAP.POSITION_ID
AND      TRUNC(Sysdate) between HAP.effective_start_date AND HAP.effective_end_date
AND      TRUNC(Sysdate) between PGF.effective_start_date AND PGF.effective_end_date
AND      PAAM.effective_start_date(+) <= TRUNC(Sysdate)
AND      PAAM.effective_end_date(+) >= TRUNC(Sysdate);

Note: add the condition as per your requirement and always use standard ANSI joins.
