Hi ​@Keen Desembrana ,

It seems that the “company” field you see there is not a free text field, but the list of companies currently associated with that user, so you can’t just overwrite it like a normal text attribute.


To change it manually, you usually need to:

- open the Company record and update it there, or

- remove / add the right company association on the user’s profile (from the contact view, not only from that “Details” modal).

NB: the Edit button you’re seeing here is only used to choose which fields you want to display in the customer details panel
