Reporting or field adding question - complex?

[kbaker]

I have an Object that I need to either (a) populate fields of Alias, State and Division automatically with data from the User table or (b) determine a way to report those three fields from User along with the data in the Object.  I would accept either way but I cannot figure out how to accomplish this.

Additionally, it would be grand if I could find a way to do the same thing with a Task.

Advise please?

Thx

Unfortunately, the users table is unrelatable to other objects in the way I think you'd like. You can dynamically populate fields with current users data using formula fields (like $User.Username, $User.Alias)

Let me know if this helps you at all, without understanding a little more about what you're trying to achieve its difficult to say if this will work for you.
