Fusion Global HR: How to Enable an Expression Language (EL) by Username (Doc ID 2742164.1)

Last updated on MARCH 17, 2021

Applies to:

Goal

EL Expression by Username

How can we limit an icon on the spring board to just a few select users without using security roles?

The following was attempted, but didn't give the desired results:

With this:   #{WCSecurityContext.currentUser['username'||'username'||'username']} 

ISSUE: validate returns false and does not appear on the spring board.
-----------------------------
With this:  #{WCSecurityContext.currentUser['username']}

ISSUE: it will work, but for one username.
-----------------------------
With this: #{WCSecurityContext.currentUser['username']||WCSecurityContext.currentUser['username']||WCSecurityContext.currentUser['username']}
               validate returns true, but the system returns an Application Error on save and close.

ISSUE:   With two people sometimes it won't error and sometimes it will, but more than two people it has always returned an error.

-----------------------------

NOTE:  'username' is entered with the actual user name like person@company.com
