If you have multiple accounts from the same financial institution and would like to tell them apart easily, you can change the 'Account Name' field which will allow you to customize account names under the same financial institution.
There are two fields you can edit: 'Firm Name' and 'Account Name'.
The 'Firm Name' is the name of your financial institution - such as 'Fidelity' or 'Chase'. The 'Account Name' is the name of the individual account you have with that financial institution, - such as 'My Savings', 'Spouse 401k', or 'Business Credit'. This helps you differentiate between multiple accounts at the same institution.
If you change the 'Firm Name' ALL accounts tied to that set of login credentials will be updated. To change just one account, be sure to only change the 'Account Name'.
