Current User Lookup as List Format
Every module has the ability to turn off all users and show only the current user, but it order do show the current user, the users list is required in the applies to.
The is currently a formulas to task current versions, time periods, etc but there is no formula for current user without applying the list to the module's line item.
Since all modules have an implied current user, this should be easy to create a new formula for Users.'Current User'.
Creating this simple formula in the backend will free downstream calculations and modules from needing the users list by using a [LOOKUP: Current User] in a list formatted line item in a systems module.
Even though the users list was applied to the model, there is currentlly no top level so I am receiving the top level error from sourced modules applied to the user list in a target module without the users list.
This should also be available for time stamps as the time is integrated all over the model and should be easily derived from the existing source code without the need for timely integrations.
Please advise if this is possible,
Tyler
