Hi Experts,

Would like to know how to make the name of the 'Created by User' be visible in the form with template FIN_FO_CORR_INTDOC_ENTRY. Currently, the display is the user ID only. 

Attached screenshots are the current and 'to be' format in the form.

Hello dear user,

And thank you for asking your question in the SAP Community blog.

This modification you want on the form has to be done exclusively by a technical consultant. If you want the “Created By User” field in that FIN_FO_CORR_INTDOC_ENTRY form to show the person’s full name instead of just their user ID, here’s what you need to do:

1. Download the form template

Go to the Maintain Form Templates app, search for FIN_FO_CORR_INTDOC_ENTRY, and download it.

 

2. Open it in Adobe LiveCycle Designer

Find the field that shows the user ID. Right now it’s probably linked directly to CreatedByUser.

 

3. Change the data source

That field is only showing the technical user ID because that’s all the standard data source has.

To fix that, you’ll need to bring in the user’s full name. SAP has a standard view called I_User where you can get the full name for a given user ID.

What you or your dev needs to do:

  • Create a custom CDS view (or key user view) that joins your current data source with I_User, matching on the user ID.
  • Add the full name to the form interface.

 

4. Bind the form field to the full name

Back in LiveCycle, change the binding of that field to your new FullName field.

 

5. Upload the form

Upload your updated form back into the system and test it. You might need to assign it in Output Parameter Determination.

 

I hope this will help you answer your question.

Best regards,

Jeremy

Hi Jeremy,

Yes, the username is not in the standard/ available fields in the form template I mentioned. Therefore it needs to be customized. 

Okay, this is noted. 

Thank you for your response.
