Is there a way to edit the roster names on the Roster Management screen?  
We're trying to display a "Nice Name" on the name column to make it easier for people to identify the rosters.

Hi,

Unfortunately, there is no inherent way to do this using the Roster Management component. The easiest way to do this would be to use the "Nice Name" as the name of the roster itself, but this would require you to change the name of the roster anywhere it is referenced in a project.

Are you simply wanting to change the name, or are you wanting to change the way the name is displayed in a specific component within the project--keeping the other name in as it is everywhere else?
