> Hello People, We are working on [enabling bahmni appointments to run on OpenMRS](https://talk.openmrs.org/t/running-bahmni-appointments-scheduling-on-openmrs/24935). This application leverages logged-in user’s username. It sets the current logged-in username in the cookies and uses it later. This works for all the users but the admin user. We see that admin user doesn’t have a username and the cookie is set to null. We checked out on [bahmni-demo](https://demo.mybahmni.org/openmrs) and found out that the username for admin is populated but not on [OpenMRS Demo](https://demo.openmrs.org). Any specific reason why the admin user doesn’t have a…

I agree with this… annotations are certainly the more “modern” way for doing things so we should seriously consider upgrading, but we should do it at a point when we are confident to have the resources for a details regression test, and a strategy for avoiding things like the “unused\_tables”.

Take care, Mark

I’ve gone through the thread you shared but unfortunately I’m running out of bandwidth. I hope to get all this tested after reverting locally before merging this though.

@wyclif, the above revert issue is annotations unrelated.

@mozzy, I’ve been doing a couple of tests, and reverting this is effective when using the SDK. By this I mean, installing a fresh instance of the platform with the current version of the SDK adds the **admin** user name to the _admin_ systemID as was fixed. However this is not the case when running on an enterprise tomcat server. I would think the later is not a big issue.

Have you done the tests, after reverting the commit ?

sure thats the expected behaviour.

thats only possible when running with the latest SDK , Docker or the standalone , if am not mistaken. So i think ideally thats the expected behaviour
