using SWI1 as attached. The container information was =
displayed when work item ID 552090 was executed. You can =
see that the _Decision_parameter 3 was holding the value 'workflow' =
instead of 'Donna Lee Light' being the approver. Yet =
when you looked into the workitem details by drilling down, =
&_WORKITEM.EXECUTEDBYUSER.NAME& is actually holding 'Donna Lee =
Light' who is the approver of the travel. And when you =
looked into the container information when work it ID 552091 was =
executed (this time is a background step (to change the status of =
travel record), the field is now holding 'workflow'. This =
doesn't make sense.</FONT></P>
