Calendar maintenance view

The calendar includes only the jobs that are categorized as "out of order/not started" and "out of order/in progress". Only these can block the availability of the rooms, which is obvious at a glance. As shown below, the jobs are marked in dark grey color.

If a new reservation overlaps the maintenance job, the system will not save this reservation and a notification message will be appeared. The same happens in case that an existing maintenance job is rescheduled within the dates of a confirmed reservation.
