Can you please elaborate on what you're looking for? Are you referring to your ID when logging into the Accesspoint? If you can provide some supporting screenshots that might help us figure out how to best support your question.

Thanks,
Josh

Sumaira, you have things backward on this one I am afraid, OSUser() is the Windows ID, whereas QvUser() is the Qlik ID, here is the Help link on things:

https://help.qlik.com/en-US/qlikview/April2019/Subsystems/Client/Content/QV_QlikView/Scripting/SystemFunctions/system-functions.htm?id=897#QVUser

OSUser()

This function returns a string containing the name of the current user as returned by the operating system. It can be used in both the load script and in a chart expression.

QVUser()

Returns a string containing the name of the current QlikView user as entered in for section access.

Regards,
Brett
