How can I build a function that stores data in a structure when taken from a file (pointer)?

Question

In an assignment I'm working on, I need to read data from a file and then convert that data into a form that can be stored in a structure. The structure stores information on the person the line in the file represents. The issue that I'm having is that I cannot find a way to build a function that will allow me to take this data and store it in the structure. This is the relevant code to getting the file:

    FILE* ifp;
    char file_name[150], early_type[5], name_holder[LENGTH];
    double early_registration, indi_registration, team_registration, amount_holder;
    int num_early_regist, age_holder, type_holder;

    // get file name and set it up as a pointer
    printf("Please enter the name of your file.\n");
    scanf("%s", file_name);

    ifp = fopen(file_name, "r");

The code then goes to scanning the file for the data:

fscanf(ifp, "%s %s %d %d %lf", early_type, name_holder, &age_holder, &type_holder, &amount_holder);
        // if the line shows an individual registering early
        if (strcmp(early_type, "INDV")==0){
            person_early(struct person* person, &name_holder, &age_holder, &type_holder, &amount_holder);
        }

Finally, this is the prototype of the function that I am building:

void person_early(struct person* person, char* name[LENGTH], int* age, int* event_type, double* donation_amount);

The issue that I'm having is that I'm not sure how to put the data into this structure:

struct person {
    char name[LENGTH];
    int number;
    int age;
    int event;
    float money;
    float time;
};

Should I build a function to store this data, as there are several people to log from the file? Do I need to be using pass by value or pass by reference? Thanks for any help.

Edit:

The full function that I have written is this:

void person_early(struct person* person, char* name[LENGTH], int* age, int* event_type, double* donation_amount) {
    // the name of the variable should be the name that is taken from the file
    struct person (*name[LENGTH]);

    (*name).name = *name_holder;
    (*name).age = *age_holder;
    (*name).event = *type_holder;
    (*name).money = *donation_amount;


    return;
}

Answer 1

regarding:

(*name).name = *name_holder;  

This is not what you want. The passed in struct pointer person is the receiver of all the data. suggest:

void person_early( struct person* person, char name[], int age, int event_type, double donation_amount) 
{
    strcpy( person->name, name );
    person->age   = age;
    person->event = event_type;
    person->money = donation_amount;
}

Note: no return needed on a void function, unless exiting before the end of the function
