Accessing Current User value in view criteria

Hi All,

 

In the Case object I have a field called Case Assignee. This is a field lookup to User. 

 

Following is my requirement:

 

I want to create a view with the criteria as Case Owner is the Current logged in user  and Case Assignee is not the current logged in user.

 

I am not able to identify how do I give this condition in the criteria.

 

Any suggestion on this will be helpful.

 

Thanks

Arvind

Create a formula field on Case with the following type of formula

if( $User.Id =  CreatedById , 1, 0)

 

I have used createById but you can use any User lookup field. Then use this field in the filter condition. Basically, formula field values are not stored in the database so based on the current user, it will show the appropriate value and hence can be used in the filter condition.
