Not sure. In the old Actuate reports it was a parameter to all reports. Try using ParmUserName instead of userName. I know both of these are used as part of the HTTP request to ERI.

BTW, in the designer this will always be null, does it also return null in Maximo?

Surely somebody must know what we need to put into getParameter to grab the current Maximo user. Or can somebody tell us how we can look up what parameters are available to grab?

This should be such a simple thing to solve! The only thing I've got left to try is making a relationship in DB configuration in Maximo and doing it that way. That is the only thing I can suggest to others who may be dealing with the same problem. Hopefully this issue no longer exists when we upgrade to Maximo 7. Until then, our business partners will just have to be careful not to let unauthorized persons run the report. :unsure:

Mica and I put our heads together and this works in my environment (mx7.5.0.3 and iServer11 sp3). It may seem a bit hashed up, for several really geeky reasons, ERI calls the report using a user called "maximo.admin". I can do that because I am on Work Units, not Named User licensing. I'm terrible at documenting in code, so if it doesn't make sense, let me know. Brian

As it turns out Maximo passes to ERI the Maximo user name bit it appears it does not pass it to the embedded report (do not know why). Brian thought it might be in the paramstring parameter but that also does not appear to be the case. Maybe there is a way to customize the paramstring but that is outside my realm of knowledge. Maybe you should ask IBM? :-)
