# How to quick-create a one-time availability

**For:** Manager

## Use the shortcut

1. In the top-right of the availability list or calendar, click **'Quick add availability'**.
2. Pick the person.
3. Set the start and end.
4. Click **'Save'**.

## Verify it worked

The block appears on the calendar and in the list with type **'One-time availability'**.
