Created by Column

Hello,

I'd like to create a column where when a user creates a record, it automatically adds their name to a Created by Column. Any ideas?

You could try setting the initial value for Created By to $[SYS_USER]

Hey @Jame-a11e,

To setup a process to store the user who created a record it requires 2 steps.

Step 1: Create a Created By column in the appropriate table.
In my example I added the column to a table called Accounts

CreatedBy

Step 2: Now that you've created the column you'll need to go to the screen you designed to create the record and add the following to the automation.

Using the =$[SYS-USER] value will provide the logged-in users info.

I hope this helps guide you in the right direction.

Best Regards,

Nancy
