For any service that is created in Duve that you would like to send back information to Mews, here is what must be added from Mews so that it will correctly sync back.

How to Set It Up?
2 items to set up:

Important Notes:
- The price of the service in Mews must be set to 0€ so that the price does not duplicate in Duve.
