Can we change the full name to lastname,firstname for the existing records. I am aware that we can change it for the system setting but only for the newly created one. Is there any way i could update the existing ones

Hi D365 Learning,
You should create an event in the form that is execute when saving a new record.
Here information of how this works:
Form OnSave event (Client API reference) in model-driven apps - Power Apps | Microsoft Docs

Hi,
Another option is to create an on-demand workflow and execute it against your old records using the Bulk Workflow Execution Tool available on xrmtoolbox.
Note that I have already done the same scenario using this approach. Good Luck !
In order to update the full name you have to cause the update of firstname and/or lastname of the contact that will cause "reformatting" of the fullname.
As for me the easiest way is to design an SSIS package that will read contacts you want to refresh the format in and update firstname/lastname with the same values.
Hello @Furkan Karacan,
Thanks for your response.
But can you be more clear. I couldn't get you
maybe you need to trigger update on these records. You can try updating firstname or lastname with the exact same values with 1-2 records and see if it works
