I have a field on a form that is not getting populated for users.

asked on January 15, 2018

I have a form that automatically pulls in the current user's info which is shown in the FullNetworkID field.  I have another field called Requester Name which is a truncated version of the FullNetworkID without the domain\ prefix.  This works for only one person, but not for others.  The person that it works for has the same access as 3 other users, but it doesn't work for the other three also.  Shown below are forms that work and the bottom one doesn't.  Any idea what could be causing this issue?

How are you populating the Requester Name field? The values are already on the form, so whatever is going wrong would be within the browser instance and shouldn't have anything to do with access rights.

it's running a store procedure to validate if the current user is a valid user to submit the form.  I was just talking to the person who created the SP and he said that it's probably a timing issue.  here's part of the code that does the validation.  I'm not a coder, so I can't figure out where to insert the settimeout function.  Q95 is the fullnetworkid field.

Using settimeout is one option, but a generic delay has some disadvantages. Another important question is what actually triggers/calls the "getUsername" function?

Hi Willie, is this an authenticated form? Is capturing the initiators credentials the same as the Full Network ID? Also, can you show how you are reducing the Full Network ID down to the Requester Name? Also, what version of Forms are you using.
