I would call it OCB, but I can see the argument for the CB.

Me as well.

The problem Rho, is that our Generic Roles leave much to be desired in terms of telling what something is. Visual Effects is the most recent such mess, we are shoe horning so much information in there that the data is NEAR worthless. This could be mitigated somewhat if users would list the ACTUAL role associated with a Profiler generic if it is different. It would then be part of the record for that title... and for benefit of some users, I do mean list the role in the notes EXACTLY as it appears On screen. Then we have some real data and there is some solid context to it, also with the data being in the notes, if the Actual Roles are there then it is a simple matter of cut n paste if other users want to put it in their custom Role field.

Rho, I am no fan of Open Creds despite my support for them, the concept horrifies me. I am no more interested in Accountants, Gaffers, Grips and so forth than the man in the moon. BUT, big BUT, if someone is interested in them I have no right to say he shouldn't be able to, all I want is to be able to select that data that I AM interested in. Open Creds solve one of our biggest problems, ARGUMENTS, they go away, no more will I have to listen to rho prattle on about Functional Equivalents (being amusingly sarcastic) or listen to someone bring a new Credit to the forums and the resulting arguments, back and forth and inevitable insults. The4 answer to open creds is universal and the same for ALL, see it, type it, if you don't want to enter all the data, that is fine, we are NOT required to do so, the user who does want it all is free to do so...as long as I can decide for my own database exactly what data I want easily then everyone wins and the data is absolutely CORRECT, no arguments, no more "but the Writer's guild says this" or the "DGA says that", just copy what you see. I should be so lucky as to live long enough to see this endless nonsense, abck and forth ansd insults end. But i won't hold my breath.

I like what we have now...the generic role with the option to enter the actual credit in the custom field.  For me, this limits what can and can't be entered.  What I hate about what we have now is that the custom field is erased...unless something has changed...when you accept an update.  That is the only reason I do not use it at the moments...oh, and it is a little too short.

Is a gaffer someone who keeps messing up?
