Bus/Financial - SAP / Company details
English term or phrase: Company details
I need to translate the phrase "Comany details" in a way that would refer generally to all companies. Is the word "société" the most general one or should I opt for "entreprise". Does the word "société" refer to all sorts of companies?

entreprise
Explanation:
No, in FR you shouldn't use société if that isn't the actual legal form of the compant.

Entreprise is indeed the word you need.
