    Yes but I guess for how the question has been done that you won't an explanation from the scratch. So the first it's to know if you have the permissions and the license to do it that

    Yes, you can do that, its a ID of the Users table.

    You can find this field's ID "Created By" in the users table and show the name of the Users table in your page.

    Thanks.

    If you are using NAV, it needs to be customized.

    And, note whether to use User Security Id or User Id.
