Workflow Run Script as a specific user

[shembop]

Presently I have a script that runs in a workflow that says after such and such happens, find the account in the sys_user table, and inactivate them. This all works perfectly, and the account is inactivated. The " problem " is that the action is done by the account "system". The ask was if it was possible to define the account that updated the record. So, I would want it to say updated by TermsServiceAccount

add the lines in your code just before you update the user,

gr.sys_updated_by ='sys_id of the user';

and comment the line gr.autoSysFields(false);

if you are intending to updating the name of the user who is triggering the workflow, then simply   gr.autoSysFields(true);

Hi,

If you want the Requestor name to be populated, you can use

user_record.sys_updated_by = current.request.requested_for.user_name;
