    Hi,

    When you create a user in Dynamics 365, it copies the name and other data from the Active Directory.

    If you need to fill in your information, try doing this in 2 steps:

    1. Create the user
    2. Update the user info

    HI Wahaj,

    Thanks for replying.

    I am updating the record from user's form.

    i.e.

    Advance Settings => Security => Users

    I change the "last name" field but when I hit "Save", it again reverts it value to "SMSforDynamics".
