User Account Mappable Properties

[durstma]

We need more mappable properties to use in different scenarios.

• User Name: autodesk\durstma (System Property Viewable in Vault Grid)
• First Name: Matthew (System Property Viewable in Vault Grid)
• Last Name: Durst (System Property Viewable in Vault Grid)
• Email: matthew.durst@autodesk.com (System Property Viewable in Vault Grid)
• Initials: MJD (Revision Block Mapping)
• Display Name: mdurst (Checked Out\In, Created By, etc.) 

We ran into a scenario where we wanted to automatically pull the 'Latest Approver' value (Display Name) to populate the Revision Block. The format required in the Revision Block is to use Initials.

We changed the 'Display Name' to use initials in the User Management, but now all the User properties (Checked Out\In, Created By, etc.) show the initials which is meaningless to us when trying to view who worked on the file.

There seems to be no User Fields (First\Last Name, User Name, Email) other than 'Display Name' in Vault which is now forcing us to change the 'Display Name' back to a more friendly name therefore not being able to use the 'Latest Approver' property to populate the Revision Block with initials automatically through Change State feature.
