Scenario: There is a form named frmRequest. On this form there are multiple fields. Some are Computed and some are Editable. 

There is an XPages is being created using this Form. 

 

XPages shows some values that are computed on the form. Example below: 

 

1. fldEmployeeLoginID: @UserName 

2. fldDepartment: Lookup department name from another view based on the value in fldEmployeeLoginID as the key. 

 

When any XPageis opened to create a new Request document,  the value of these two field are being shown.

 

 

All it is working fine. 

 

Problem/ Requirement: Now the requirement is not to use @UserName as the default value in fldEmployeeLoginName. Instead a value will be passed in the URL when the XPages is opened. Example: http://server/application.nsf/xpRequest.xsp?EmployeeLoginID=emp3 

 

As shown in the example above, the employee login id will be taken from the querystring and will not be computed using @UserName.  

 

Now the challenge is how to show the two values - fldEmployeeLoginID and fldDepartment using the value passed on the URL. 

 

Please suggest. 

 

Thanks,
