Changing an Existing Joint Owner to a Beneficiary or Misc. Owner
Occasionally a member may ask you to change the access privileges for an existing secondary name. For example, they may want a current joint owner to be listed only as beneficiary, or wish to make a beneficiary into a true joint owner. Simply choose the relationship type you wish and use Add/Update. A confirmation window will appear; use Add/Update again to confirm the change and return to the initial Secondary Names list. The change will be reflected in the Relationship Type column.
