    Hello Shaikh,
     
    Full name is non-editable because the data is synchronized from an Azure Active Directory.
    You could try to update a name in the AAD and run Update users from Microsoft 365 action on Users list.

    Hi, the 'Full Name' field is not directly editable. It updates based on user information from Microsoft 365. Please try updating the user information by selecting "update user from Microsoft" ; this should resolve the issue.

    The other users are correct, this field is not populated in Business Central as its value comes from Microsoft 365

    agree with the previous response. It could be that IT didn't fill out full name when creating the user in AAD. Check users on AAD and populate it should help.
