you first need to understand how the catalog works and Products are made. I think Ruth's books cover this.
The rental as it stands is not intuitive and requires customization to be useful in my opinion.
I spent about two months configuring mine for a boat slip rental. Since Hans is the one that implemented it, you might contact him. Shereen sent the following on 9/27/2010 3:36 AM:
