      Hi Angela,
      You should try joining PER_PERSONS and/or PER_USERS. 
      Thanks

      yep,I tried... what do i join with..  created_by and last_updated_by varchar64(this can have email address or a number) and per_users - user_id num 18

        Hi,
        Last_updated_by and created_by already show you the username.

        If you want to have other pieces of information related to the worker, you can join per_users which contain the person_id (assuming your users are also created as employees). 

        Sample code :
        SELECT 
        gl.segment1||'-'||gl.segment2||'-'||gl.segment3||'-'||gl.segment4||'-'||gl.segment5||'-'||gl.segment6||'-'||gl.segment7||'-'||gl.segment8 code_combination
        , gl.enabled_flag
        , gl.last_updated_by
        , TO_CHAR(gl.last_update_date,'MM-DD-YYYY:HH24:MI') last_update_date
        ,gl.CREATED_BY
        ,TO_CHAR(gl.CREATION_DATE,'MM-DD-YYYY:HH24:MI') 
        ,ppn1.first_name
        ,ppn1.last_name
        FROM GL_CODE_COMBINATIONS gl
        LEFT JOIN PER_USERS pu1 on pu1.username = gl.last_updated_by
        LEFT JOIN PER_PERSON_NAMES_F ppn1 on pu1.person_id = ppn1.person_id

        Thanks

      i can get the weird number the number 2A4373EBD03B3551E050480A28850FE6 using the user_guid  but other numbers like 40554976.  Looks like a scheduler id but not sure what number that is.
