Name Change of existing employee

J
Freshman I

We have an employee that has completely changed their first name and last name, and I have been asked to update Acumatica as such.  Is that possible?  I would prefer to change the name information in the Employee record as well as in the User record instead of creating a new profile with the new name.  

 

All suggestions welcome!!

@JStojakovic  You can easily change the employee's name and contact and if needed change the Employee ID.    You cannot change the login name of a user, so you will need to create a new user if you want to change the login and then attach the employee with the linked entity.
