Property Operations & PMS

Property Operations and PMS: this is the forum for posting your ideas and comments on all aspects of hotel operations, from reservations to events to metrics and reports. You'll find a category here for each of the major topics in property management, and if you can't find the right category, please search or post to the Other category. Where we can, we'll move ideas around to group them as intuitively as possible for the product managers working on the PMS.

Please keep in mind that there is a separate forum for topics specific to the operations of hotel chains and groups. Go to the Multi-property management forum for anything about portfolio management or rate, product, package and restriction functionality across multiple properties.

  1. It would be great to have a list of all pro formas that have been sent, because now they cannot be found anymore once it is sent.
    For example, an extra selection under 'bills and invoices'.

  3. Currently, when sending an invoice/bill via email for a company owned bill only the company’s invoicing email is automatically suggested as a recipient. However, most of the time the guest (associate profile) should receive the bill as they have to file it with their travel management to get reimbursed.
    Hence, the email of the guest needs to be retrieved manually each time from the guest profile and copied back into the send bill/invoice form. This delays the checkout process unnecessarily!
    Suggestion: automatically suggest the associated profile’s email as a potential recipient in addition to the bill owner’s email when sending…

  4. When adding a product to a bill, like a parking fee, it would be good to be able to add a note with the fee to the bill so that the note is also shown on the final invoice. If we for example have group/meeting reservations where everything is going on the same bill, for the customer it is occasionally important to know whose parking fees are actually on the final invoice.

  5. It should be possible to book TIP or expenses.
    Currently, Mews does not recognise this booking type, which means that we have to calculate everything manually and book via detours. This harbours great potential for error.

    Expense postings must be deducted directly from the cash register contents.
    Expenses should therefore not appear in the sales figures.

  6. For travel agencies and company guests with routing rules, it is very difficult to quickly identify the date of the reservation . It would be much more useful and convenient if we could have the arrival date displayed at the top of the bill. so there is no need to click on each booking to see the specific date.

  7. instead of having to delete one item at a time it should be possible to select more and delete all.

  8. When using the “Reissue as open bill” function, Mews will re-issue the new invoice with the Legal Identifiers of the old bill, without checking whether any of the Legal Identifiers in the customer profile have been updated.

    So if the new bill is reissued because any of the Legal Identifiers in the old one were incorrect, they will be incorrect in the new one (unless manually overridden when reissuing the bill).

    But because the new invoice is issued on a new date, also Legal Ids should be the ones setup on that same new date.

  9. Currently, it is possible to send invoice reminders on demand and manually via the bill/invoice itself or via the City Ledger.

    (1) It would be nice to have repeated (and automated) reminders in different stages of the aging process, and
    (2) also create an easier way to add a surcharge (if needed) on overdue invoices;
    (3) Alert the responsible personnel/Mews User of the reminders not actioned.

  10. When moving items to a new bill, it will be great if we could have more options to filter the bills. For example, now, if we were to choose "Another Company" it will show all bills open on that company profile. But when we have hundreds of bills open (especially when created through billing automations), it is very hard to know which one is which. Ability to filter with the associated profile would be very useful.

  11. Even though you can manually move future bookings to a separate bill it would be really useful if Mews did this automatically. It sometimes gets missed by reception and charged by mistake.

  12. When guests payment fails on Booking Engine (property's web page) - it would be good if a payment request is sent automatically and guests warned if they do not make the payment that the booking will be cancelled.

    We are currently doing this manually and sometimes it is a lot of extra work.

  13. Offer Pay by Invoice to certain companies linked to a voucher or based on rate. We would like to offer certain companies that have a voucher code to book direct with us the option to pay via invoice instead of having to fill in card details.

  14. Hi, we need to filter by last name, but the export only contains first and last name in one cell, so we can only filter by first name.
    It couldn´t be to difficult to make a change, couldn´t it?

  15. For guests needing a company address on their invoice,but are paying for the stay themselves, the current set-up seeks to add the company profile as secondary profile after check-in, then take the payment at check-out, and then swap the two profiles on the invoice so that the company would be primary and the guest´s profile would be secondary/ linked profile. Therefore you need to find the right address again, which usually takes a couple of clicks. It would be much easier if there was way to simply swap the profiles by sliding or by having an option to swap with…

  16. Can we please have an option to split a payment ?
    Like you can partially refund a payment. IE guest pays by card 110€ but wants 2 invoices. first invoice room only 100€ and second invoice extras 10€ . guest doesnt want 2 payments on his card. How can you split the payment amount of 110€ into 100€ and 10€ on 2 invoices ?

  17. Good afternoon team mews
    In the bill when you click on either go to preview or invoice gives us the option to create the invoice or preview the invoice from there to print it gives us 4 options of how we want to print the bill.
    Is there a way to add a new template where the consumption per cheche are the totals as something informative?

    Currently the mews invoice when creating it gives us the total of all the consumption of all checks and on many occasions the guest asks to know how much was consumed in each check…

  18. At the moment Mews only has a template when you send an invoice that thanks the guest for their stay, however the same are sent as reminder which then often get ignored by debtors.

    The option to create more standard emails, to create for example a different template for reminders of invoices would be a useful tool to improve the management from within Mews.

  19. Currently, Mews allows us to search for invoices and due invoices easily—but there’s no way to retrieve a specific proforma invoice that was sent or emitted. This creates major complications when reconciling bank transfers, especially if the booking was later modified and the amount changed. It often leads to time-consuming manual searches or, worse, having to ask guests to resend the proforma we originally issued.

    Proformas have reference numbers—so why can’t we simply search them like other invoices? This feature is standard in most PMSs and would drastically reduce back-office friction.

    Suggested solution:
    Enable proforma invoices to be searchable by…

  20. Finding a method to conceal the "space number" on invoices for future arrivals would be beneficial, particularly when a bill/invoice must be issued before the arrival date. An option to choose "Future Arrival" before emailing guests could prevent the premature disclosure of the assigned space.
