Rolling Calendar Block
Prevent meetings from being scheduled for “the morrow morning” if the client is selecting the meeting time in the evening (let’s say no later than 6pm) prior.
The minimum scheduling notice (MSN) is not sufficient for CP users who are meeting with people from distant time zones.
I am based on the east coast of the US. If I set my MSN to 4 hours, then someone in Europe (at 9am their time, 3 am my time) can schedule a meeting with me for 8am my time (2pm their time) while I'm still asleep. This is inconvenient.
If I increase my MSN to require more hours notice, then I have the issue where prospects in my local time cannot schedule with me same day. This is also inconvenient.
This request reflects the need to be able to schedule morning meetings (necessary for clients in time zones in Europe/Asia/Australia) and the need for clients in my local timezones to be able to schedule the same day.
The benefit from a “rolling calendar block” is still allowing morning meetings to be scheduled well in advance, while preventing meetings that get scheduled during overnight periods.

Either this or provide a setting to respect "x working hours" instead of just x hours in advance. We also don't have an issue with same day bookings. The biggest issue is with early morning bookings.
If we were able to set 4 working hours as a buffer, then anyone booking outside of the working hours could only book for noon and beyond.
