Help, need user name for wf initiator in the task text

[Dart, Jocelyn]

Hi Sunni,
If you just want to get the user name for display in a step in your
workflow you can use instance-independent method USR01.FINDUSERFROMAGENTSTRUCTURE
to translate your workflow initiator to a USR01 object.

Sunni:
 
You can create on your event a new parameter that is the user name and, on
the event check function module you can set this parameter with the user
name (that you can get from the object USR01).
 
Then you create a container element on your workflow to receive the event
parameter and populate it on the binding.
 
Just do not forget that the key of the object USR01 is the user id and the
workflow initiator has the string 'US' before the user id.
 
Flavio.
