This handler adds a variable to the process. It also adds the user name of the instance starter as the value.

This variable and its values are shown in the PDF-report in the smartform area.

The default variable name is „Starter“. However, an arbitrary name may be entered into the mandatory field.

In order to assign the instance starter to a specific swimlane, the following handler may be used: AssignStarterToSwimlaneHandler

The following variables will be generated:
- starter / prefix value : UserName
- starter / prefix value + Expression (z.B. starterExpression) : user(Username)
- starter / prefix value + Firstname (z.B. starterFirstname) : First name
- starter / prefix value + Lastname (z.B. starterLastname) : Last name
- starter / prefix value + Email(z.B. starterEmail) : E-mail address
- starter / prefix value + Department(z.B. starterDepartment) : Department

For example: Standard:
starter:MHI
starterExpression:user(MHI)
starterFirstname:Markus
starterLastname:Hirscher
starterEmail:Markus.Hirscher@example.de
starterDepartment:HR

in the example under:
starteroptionaler_variablenname:MHI
starteroptionaler_variablennameExpression:user(MHI)
starteroptionaler_variablennameFirstname:Markus
starteroptionaler_variablennameLastname:Hirscher
starteroptionaler_variablennameEmail:Markus.Hirscher@example.de
starteroptionaler_variablennameDepartment:HR

or with start_ :
