Set extended availability

Coffee breaks are always scheduled for the week after matching. In practice, however, it can happen that a calendar is full and no mutual free slots can be found. For this reason, extended availability of 1 to 4 weeks can be set. The system continues to try to find an appointment in the week after matching. If there is no mutual slot, the coffee break is scheduled for the following week, and so on.
