I'm currently developing a security scheme for our database and one of the requirement is to filter the user transaction by only allowing a certain domain group to access the function.
My question is, is there a function or a way where I can be able to get the domain group name of the current user through TSQL? A functinality like that of system_user or current_user.
thanks.

you could use xp_logininfo, but imo you'd better use the security-capabilities of sqlserver.
e.g. grant a nt-group as db-user and then grant it the needed (sp) rights.
because then you avoid over-authorised situations with problems when you have a weak moment managing your security-procs.

Try this, I think this answers the second part of your question. SELECT 'The current user is: '+ convert(char(30), CURRENT_USER)
