If the after tax contributions had some growth before you roll over to the Roth IRA, you will owe taxes on the gains, right Johanna? Some plans let you roll over more than once a year, I believe NorCal KP lets you do that.
TPMG doc here. Miss Bonnie is correct. Here in NorCal, we are allowed to make a conversion of any after tax 401k contributions into Roth $ once per quarter. Doing this more frequently keeps the gains pretty low (since the after tax 401k gets emptied relatively quickly). I didn't convert mine into my Roth IRA but left it as part of my Roth 401k (though either option was available). As of now, it can't be done online but the Fidelity reps have gotten more familiar with the process over the past couple of years. The last time I did this, the call took all of 2 minutes.
Best,
WW
