Contact Record Owner's User is inactive and no one can update the Account Name on that Contact

You can create a permission set with the"Update Records with Inactive Owners" permission and assign to the respective user who is needs to modify the inactive users records.

Hi Venkat,

Before modifying the inactive users records, you need to change the owner of contact to active user and then modify the remaining fields.

or
you create permission set with the"Update Records with Inactive Owners" and assign to the respective user who is needs to modify the inactive users records.

Hi Ankaiah,
Thanks for your quick responce...
Without changing the owner of contact to active user we need to update the Account Name.
