Getting username linked to a position

[Roehlen, Peter]

Hello Patrick,
 
I hope I've understood your problem but I would enhance your business object
type Z_BUS2105 to have an additional attribute that instead of just being a
field containing the user name is actually of business object type
USR01DOHR.  This will allow you to get to the position by the following
reference:
 
        Z_BUS2105.<selected agent*>.Employee.Staffing.Objid
 
        * whatever the name of your new attribute is
 
This will give you the position number without have to do any extra coding
or method implementation.  We make it a point here at Powercor of ensuring
that every attribute that would normally contain a user id is instead of the
business object type USR01DOHR.  This means that by default you generally
get everything you would ever want to know about the user/agent including
addresses, titles etc.  We are in version 46B.

Subject: Getting username linked to a position
 
 
Hi
 
At some stage in a purchase request approval workflow template, I want to
check that a workflow container element 'selected agent' (whose value is a
username) which is an attribute of Object Type Z_BUS2105 (based on BUS2105)
is contained in a multiline workflow container element 'possible agents'
(which is a list of positions) which is also an attribute of Z_BUS2105.
Therefore, I would like to change the attribute 'selected agent' from a
username into a position.
Does anyone know if there is a standard function module in 4.0B that gives
the position a username is linked to?
 
Thanks in advance,
