Workflow Mail to have information outside....

[Roland Chan (EPA)]

Hi Mark,
 
             Please find the details of the analysis of the workflow 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.
 
             Also in the workflow analysis, the approver name is displayed
correctly in the analysis.  Where does such information is coming from
('Donna light' instead of Donna Lee Light).      Please advise.
 
Regards,
Roland Chan.
