Retrieving Local User Logged In to Oracle Apps

Question

Hi,
I have a report that issues Employee Payslips. I need to modify it so the user submitting the request will only be able to view his/her payslip.
I have the following bit of code:
SELECT distinct user_id
FROM v$session vs, v$process vp, fnd_logins fl
WHERE vp.addr = vs.paddr
  AND fl.spid = vs.process
  AND vs.sid=(select distinct sid from v$mystat)I also tried linking V$SESSION, V$PROCESS, and FND_CONCURRENT_REQUESTS using oracle_process_id and oracle_session_id.
The problem is neither is returning any results. When linking V$SESSION and V$PROCESS alone, I get one record, which is what I need. But upon adding FND_LOGINS to the equation, no records are retrieved.
So my question is, is there another way to be able to get the User_ID (that can be linked in FND_USER) of the session? I've looked up previous threads and articles but none of the solutions worked.
Thanks.

The main idea of the report is that a user logs into Oracle Applications and submits a request. The code in the report linked to this request has to get the username that the user logged in with and use it to retrieve only information that are related to that user.
When taking the record with SID from sys_context, the data in V$SESSION are actually related to the server not the user so they're the same for all users.
Executing the following query:
select username, osuer, machine, user#
from v$session
where SID = sys_context('USERENV', SID);Returns the following:
USERNAME: APPS
OSUSER: applqa
MACHINE: ebusdev1
USER#: 183Same with sys_context('USERENV', SESSIONID'). And linking it to FND_LOGINS using the PROCESS column returns no data.
