Creating General Display Name

The General Display Name feature allows employees' chosen names to be displayed consistently in all interactions where a legal name isn’t required, while users can also access a person’s legal name whenever needed.

To enable the functionality:

Go to Admin Center→Company System and Logo Settings.
Select the Enable adoption of the General Display Name.
Save the changes.

The table provides details and notes that require your extra attention.
