Repeat this step for every time slot on the one-off roster (for example, 9.15-9.30, 9.30-9.45 etc). **Make sure the number of volunteers and the number of hours remain at zero**, otherwise it will cause issues with Toy Library roster.

3. Generate the roster

go to Members - Duty Roster - New Roster

fill in the form as below including the weekday and date of event, the roster type remains at **Roster**, highlighted fields are important.The number to generate is the number of volunteers you will need for this time slot/session, in this case 3 helpers!
