Editing A League

Edit League: To edit a league, go to the login page for the Admin area. Enter your league's name and your password. You will then get to the League Menu that allows you to enter transactions and change all league information.

To navigate around the Admin area there is a set of links on the left margin.

Edit Team Info

This is the area where you will edit the rosters of the teams in your league and a team's basic information.

Transactions can be made by two different pages in this area. The Set Lineup page allows you to conduct multiple transacitons at once. The Edit Player Status allows you to conduct transactions (and view the transaction history) for just one player.

Set Lineup: This page allows you to change the current status for any of the players on one team. Check the edit box and edit the status. Make sure the transaction date is correct. A player will get credit for NBA games played on the transaction date. Players that are give a D or T status will be removed from the list. If you need to edit dropped or traded players use the "Change Player Status" option on the "Edit Teams" page.

Edit Player Status: This is the page where you can change the status of a player on a team. This is where you can conduct current and retroactive transactions. The page shows all the current players and their current status. To change a player's status, click on the player's name. A screen will appear where you can update the player's current status. To edit a previous transaction, enter an effective date for the transaction and an end date for the transaction. To change the current status of a player, enter an effective date for a transaction. Our system will alter all statistics and league standings for this change with the next day's statistical update.

Add/Delete Players: This is the area where you can delete or add players. To add a free agent or a player traded to a team, add that player to a team's roster and indicate his status (active or reserve).

However, do not use this process to reserve a player or to take a player off a roster from a trade is made. Players stay on a team's roster the entire season. If they no longer are with a team, due to a trade or release, edit a teams roster and change the status for that player. There are two roster designations which indicate a player is no longer on the team, but he has stats that count toward that team's standing:(T) Traded and (D) Dropped.

Therefore, you should never delete a player from someone's roster because it will wipe out all stats compiled for a team during the season. If you want to deactivate a player, please only change his status. Only delete a player if he is on a roster in error and you want to delete all his stats for the entire season for that team.

Player Salaries: You may enter a salary for each player on a team's roster. These salaries will show up along with the roster information for each player on the roster reports available in the League HQ.

Player Contract Status: You may enter a contract status for each player on a team's roster. The contract information will show up along with the roster information for each player on the roster reports available in the League HQ.

Edit Basic Team Info: This allows you to change a team's name, the name of the owner, his email and a team's division.

The Next items appear on the Admin navigation menu on the left.

Make Trades To make a trade choose which two teams are conducting a trade. Then on the next screen, choose which players from each team are being traded. You may select multiple players by clicking on each player's name whil holding down on the key. On the next screen, confirm the trade and choose which status the player will have on his new team.
