Target column to be populated with DS user name

Hi all,

I have a requirement to populate one of the target columns with the DataStage generic user name. Can you help me how to do this?

Thanks

If it's really generic you could hard code it. You could introduce it via a job parameter (maybe the $USER environment variable).

Thanks Ray, but is there a macro like the 'DSJobName'?

If there is, it will appear in the drop down list. (I do not have access to parallel jobs at the moment to check, so you'll have to check.)
