Access User Assigned Element Numbers in User-Defined Material

  I want to access the user assigned element numbers from the input card deck from within a user-defined material. I can access the LS-Dyna internally assigned element numbers via the idele variable but I do not know how this internal element number maps to the user assigned element number.
  
  Can you please instruct me how to access the user assigned element numbers from within the user-defined material? What array or variable to I need to access?
  
  I tried using the "Ansys Assistant" but it did not produce any solutions to the above problem.
  
  Thanks!
