Setup MEWS service for customice

Starting point in MEWS:

"Create" creates a new Bookable Service.

Naming of this service can be decided by the hotel.

It's important to create a "Day Service", and to adjust the bookable time span. Arrival time is the earliest time a meeting can start and departure time should always be set to 11:59 PM.

Several settings can/should be maintained in the details view of the new service.

In options you can set thigs like mailing behavoir as you like it. If you do not want no-shows to be canceled automatically you should delete this default here. 

The following settings have to be done in "Reception", else customice and MEWS are not working correctly, meaning no day slot can be booked more than once.

It's important to set "occupancy starting" as far to the end of the bookable period as possible. Having that, only the last booking touching this time blocks the occupancy for a room for the whole day.

Funny, if you want to know why this is necessary, ask MEWS ;)
