Extract user not from osuser()

Thu, 03 Sep 2015 10:43:49 GMT

Hi All,

My users access QV through their company portal. Meaning, they log in with username1 to windows and than to the company portal with username2. I have a complicated permission model that doesn't use section access but if statements that must extract the username that logged in to the portal (in this example- username2).

Any ideas on how I can accomplish that? Is there a QV function that can extract the user name not from windows (osuser())?

Thanks for your help!

Hila.

Hi Ishfaque Ahmed,

Thanks for responding!

I would like to extract username2- the user that they login with to the company web-site.

Thanks,

Hila.

Hi Sasidhar,

Thanks for responding

The case is as followed: To log in to my work station I use my active directory username- hilagendelman and in order to log in to the QV application I first log in to the company web-site with a username- HILAG. I would like QV to be activated according to the username- HILAG.

Is that possible?

Thanks,

Hila.
