# ◾ How to Create a Timeslot Structure Template
:::info
For an introduction to [Advanced Scheduling](/doc/advanced-scheduling-6uw4GlWcNY), please visit the [How to Understand Concepts within Advanced Scheduling](/doc/how-to-understand-concepts-within-advanced-scheduling-5ekv8XY5Zs) page.
:::
:::info
A **Timeslot structure template** is a template that can be set up **to control**
* **recording**
* and/or **preset intercom announcements** automatically within a timeslot.
The **actions of the template are set up concerning the start time of a timeslot by determining how many minutes and seconds** should a certain action be carried out after the start of the timeslot.
:::
1. Access the [Activity Scheduler](/doc/advanced-scheduling-6uw4GlWcNY) page. (See also [How to Access the Activity Scheduler through the Calendar](/doc/how-to-access-the-activity-scheduler-through-the-calendar-2ImwYSeuE4))
2. Click the **Timeslot Structure Templates** link under the **Add New Event** button.
3. Click **Add New o**n the **Timeslot Structure Templates** page.
To **edit an existing template**, select it from the drop-down menu, **modify** the structure, and click **Save**.
4. By default, the new template's name is 'Structure', followed by its order.
:ballot_box_with_check: Edit the name of the new structure if needed.
5. **Set up an action** by determining how many minutes and/or seconds after the start time of the timeslot the action should be carried out.
Set up time in the **From timeslot start** drop-downs.
:::warning
Warning
Timeslot structure actions are set up concerning the start time of the timeslot, but their timing **cannot exceed the length of the timeslot itself.**
The **last action** should occur at **least one second before the end** of the timeslot.
:warning: **If the length** of a timeslot structure template is **exactly the same as the timeslot's length** that it was applied to, the system will **warn you** about the **invalid settings** and won't save the actions:
:::
6. Then, determine the **type of action** using the **Action** drop-down menu.
**Example of a timeslot structure template**
The structure of a 14-minute-long timeslot may be set up as follows:
| | | |
|:----|:----|:----|
| Time of action (hh/mm/ss) | Timeslot structure action | Audio Announcement |
| **00:00:05** | Send Audio to Hallyway | "Learners, you may begin." |
| **00:00:10** | Start Video |
|
| **00:08:30** | Send Audio to In-Room | "5 minutes remaining." |
| **00:13:30** | Send Audio to In-Room | "Your time is up. Please move to the next station." |
| **00:13:59** | Stop Video |
|
There are __four timeslot structure actions__ to choose from:
* Start Video
* Stop Video
* Send Audio to Hallway
* Send Audio to In-room
:::warning
If a "Send audio..." option is selected, an additional menu appears where you can choose from the [**preset audio announcements**](/doc/how-to-manage-pre-recorded-intercom-announcements-J2jJfHKBxe) tab of the [**System**](/doc/system-manager-ar9EDnlVcL) module.
:::
7. Repeat steps 5. and 6. until you have set up every desired action.
:::warning
**Important**
Every **newly added** action appears at the **top of the structure** but will be placed in the correct order after being saved. The action itself will be **carried out according to its time set** under **From timeslot start**.
:::
:::tip
Any of the actions can be deleted by clicking the **Delete** button.
:::
8. Once completed, click **Save**.
The template will be available when [**Creating Timeslots**](/doc/c876b2f8-5a02-40c4-a527-b7b944ea4e31).
### Recording start and stop with a Push-button
As an alternative to the automated recording start, this feature allows a physical button ([**Push-button**](/doc/recording-module-TQ1YnPoHOI)) to be used in the room (or outside the room) to **start and stop video recording** for the room.
Suppose an [RNSA (Running Non-Scheduled Activity)](/doc/rnsa-how-to-reserve-a-room-without-scheduling-BkpJkdhEpm) is set for the room or [Advanced scheduling](/doc/advanced-scheduling-6uw4GlWcNY) is used. The information will be tied to the recording (Activity, Case, SP, and learner assignments).
