virtual object attribute BUS1065 to your core Business Object via
delegation, this way you not only get the attribute 'NameWithLeadingUS'
but all the attributes of BUS1065 as well. Of course OO design principals should
be respected, it might not be warranted to add this object link attribute to
your core object.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=762064813-19052005><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>1. Build a method that will separate the P from personnel
number and send the personnel number to create an instance of BUS1065 and get
the BUS1065.User.NameWithLeadingUS to return back to the workflow container. I
tried this and it seems to work. We would need to add the code in method to
cover this</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=762064813-19052005><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>2. Build a method that will have the same code as
FindUserFromAgentStructure except it will export the US+Username back to the
container. I tried this and it gave me error "

ID: OL<BR>Message
number: 837<BR>Parameter 'Agent' has invalid
value 'P 10000031' ". So I am guessing Richard's suggestion is to make the
change in the method to accept P + personnel number as well, I
assume.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=762064813-19052005><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>3. Build a method that will first separate the P from
personnel number and use personnel number to get User ID, then add US to build
US+UserID to return back to container. (based on Tami's suggestion) I tried
this and it seems to work and if we put additional code in the method we
should be fine.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
