from ANSYS Workbench for calculating the limiting plastic strain per

Think you refer to the volumetric stress. Look at HPRES. Or you can caculate it in APDL or workbench (user defined results, from princ. stress as (S1+S2*S3)*1/3).
 
Insert User defined result=>use your expression in the expression field
