current user in template

Good afternoon,

I'd like to know whether it is possible to show in a cell the user that is currently connected?

the idea is that several users will access the same template to enter the budget, by client.
I would like to have a dropdown in the template, showing only the user's clients.
I thought about the "indirect" function in Excel, based on the username...

I am not using the user management of Palo because it would imply to creat one user-group per user and it would be a hell to maintain... 8o

thanks !

... it should work in Palo Web; do you need that in Excel? If so, take a look here.
