Hi,

Use system Field SY_UNAME. It picks the current user ID.

Best regards,

Hi,

Use system field SY-UNAME.....It will take the current user ID.

Goto the table SYST to get all the system fields.

Reward if helpful.

Thanks.

U can also use the method below in addition to the variable sy-uname.

data: l_user type sy-uname.

l_user = CL_ABAP_SYST=>GET_USER_NAME( ).

Reward if found useful.

Thanks

Hi,

Use SY-UNAME.

Btw, You can use SE11 to browse structure SYST to get all the system fields.
