First, we need to keep the information secure. To that end, anyone authorized to make changes to the Roster will require a login and password. We will save sessions, so you don't necessarily have to re-login every time to return to make a change.
Once you are logged in you will be presented with the Roster, much like it is here. You can select an individual member to edit from the main roster page or from their individual Member Profile (which I talked about in another post). So if Tundrra wanted to look at just the members of SWTOR, he selects the "By Game:" filter, and only those members playing on SWTOR will appear on the Roster. From there, he can easily select an individual Member if he needs to. By default the Roster will only show the members on games that are currently active, but you will be able to filter for closed realms as well.
This is the basic Editing page for authorized users. You will see all of the information current stored in the database in their appropriate fields. You can make the most common changes from this page, such as a change in player status, from Active to MIA or a promotion. Select the appropriate drop down menu and choose what has changed or use the shortcut buttons (like Promote or Demote), or Today, which will enter the current date.
In this example, you can see that to grant a member an Award, you need simply go to the Awards section and select which award they are being given.
Any changes you make to the Edit page will automatically be logged into their history, showing the date of the change, which Realm it occurred on and provide a description. If the change is an Award, for example, that graphic will also appear on the Member Profile page automatically. This is showing the Edit History page which allows you to edit individual lines of a member's History if needed. However, most of the Roster functions will appear in the History automatically once you update the member's information. There will be no need to list each promotion, transfer, LOA, or anything else individually anymore - the Roster will do that for you.
