    Hello Balal Ahmad,

    Thank you for posting in Q&A forum.

    1.After my checking, in my test lab, I find you can click Advanced button below.

    2.Click "Field"->User, you can only select many attributes, such as Employee ID (but there is no Employee Number).

    3.Starts with the Employee ID of the user. Then you will find the user.
