<DIV>Are you stripping off the first two characters of WF_<SPAN class=correction><SPAN id="">initiator</SPAN></SPAN> before moving it to your user id field? The first two positions being object type (US for user). If not, the system may not recognize the value as a valid user and may be using the sy-uname.</DIV>
