Hi all<BR>
I'm looking for a simple way to get the workflow initiator to appear in SBWP dynamic column.<BR>
The problem is that the relevant task does not have the wf initiator in the container, so it's not available from the drop down. I'm trying to avoid making any changes to the workflow if possible. The task does have the work item id, work item creator etc<BR>
<BR>
Is there some way I can reference the workflow container in SWL1 via this task to get the wf initator, maybe via a clever expression?<BR>
<BR>
Any suggestions would appreciated.<BR>
<BR>
Thanks<BR> <BR>
