I understand that an account is a company. When I look into contacts it says "company" for the related account.
So why are there two terms and what is the difference: account and company?
Hi partner,
It seems to be more inclined to what the relationship between them is.
Please check this： How does 'Company' properly relate to a 'Contact' vs 'Account? - Dynamics 365 Sales Forum Community Forum

Thanks Leco Lv, but I do not understand how this answers my questions.
Is account meant as a customer account, not actually a company?
Can an account consist of more than one company?
I think you are right, the account should be the company, the company is like an abstract name, select the account through the company name field. An account can be associated with multiple contacts.
