I would like to refer to the current user in a filter.

We work with service orders. Eacht service order has a field called Action For, which shows the user's number (and also a field called Name Action For, which shows the full name).

Hoe can I refer to the current user, in order to show only service orders that have an Action For the current user?

I tried:

USER

CURRENTUSER

USERID

%User%

%CURRENTUSER%

%USERID%

But all to no avail...

EDIT: the field Aciotn For does NOT display the username, but the worker's number.

Refer to current user

You enter CURRENTUSER, which is only valid in the code, not in the UI.

You need to enter the current user's name.

Hope this helps.

Thanks.
