Getting manger's name of employee in Nintex form from AD

[FatmaQ]

I have a forom where line manager must be mentiond automatically when employee oopens that form. i tried the formula userProfileLookup(Current user, "Manager") in both people control and single line text control but it keeps on showing empty fields.

I also tried using calculated value control and it showed the manager name along with the domain name, and I need just the manager's name.

Any advice?

try using:

userProfileLookup(userProfileLookup(Current User, "Manager"), "PreferredName")

Thank you! It worked using calculated value control.
