Hi LB,
As Anthony mentioned, to activate the CompanyId and Company name on the D365FO front ribbon, you need to deactivate "Enable legacy navigation bar" > click "OK," and then refresh the browser.
I have already tested this in version 10.0.40 (10.0.1935.87), and it works fine.

Best regards,

Hi @Bharath

Refresh your browser after changing the setting, or try another browser or incognito/in private browsing.

Thanks

Disabling the legacy navigation bar worked for me.

Hi LB Developer,

In case your question is about having a name next to the company ID, then this is part of an update in version 10.0.40. Until F&O version 10.0.39, you will only see the company ID.

Hi LB,

This appears to be linked to the legacy navigation bar, I noticed environments with the Legal Entity name missing also have the old style search icon in the top right.

Update to 10.0.40

Navigate to System Admin -> Setup -> Client Performance Options

Turn off the option "Enable legacy navigation bar"

Should now be visible, but note the search bar will also move to the center:

Hi,

To check the legal entity setup, go to: Organization administration > Setup > Organization > Legal entities.

Can you check the data area field in any saved per legal entity table (Not shared), how it saved in the database?

Thanks,
