I have this problems: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/pt-BR/0efa7c6f-b921-40a4-817f-b3b2e9239fee/sharepoint-designer-2013-workflow-returns-wrong-user
I wonder if it is really a Bug, and if there will be fix?
Copy the ask question--
We have an issue with user logins and their use in Workflow Manager workflows, these workflows have been created in SharePoint designer.
Background:
* Environment
SharePoint 2013 with WFM 1.0 Feb Update, SharePoint Mar and Apr updates.
* Create two users in AD with the following details
First Name: Jack
Surname: Smi
Login: jsmi@domain
First Name: John
Surname: Smith
Login: jsmith@domain
* Create a Custom List and add a People column.
* Create a list 2013 workflow in SharePoint designer.
* First Action: Set your new people column to = item created by user, using Login value
* Second Action: Write a history record displaying the Display Name of your People column value.
Result:
* Create a list item and start workflow as jsmi@domain (Jack Smi)
* People column displays John Smith (Should be Jack Smi)
* Name displayed in history is John Smith (Should be Jack Smi)
Observation:
* We can reproduce this in at least two separate SharePoint 2013 environments.
* We can make sure the right user is assigned by "Set" action in workflow by using the User ID when copying from the source.
* We can not display the correct users name in any history or emails as choosing to show the Display Name of a people variable forjsmi@domain always show the display name for jsmith@domain.
Help:
* Anyone else come across this issue?
* Know of any work arounds?
Thanks.
