How do I add or move a break from the Bookings Screen?

Break (or Task) is a period of time on the Roster which is blocked out in the Employee’s column, during which availability will not show for that Employee

A Break can be added during the Roster setup (How do I setup the Roster?) or it can be added directly on the Bookings page, which is a quicker way to add a once-off Break.
