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. While using a space in space set up, but NOT using different reservations in that space, it is now not possible to process a late check out for only one space. This is inconvenient, since in practice it happens that only one space needs a late check out and not the whole room/all spaces.

    Our example: We have 2-room apartments that are a combination of 2 separate rooms, combined with a connecting door. The 2-room apartments can be booked separately, or as a 2-room apartment by for example a family. In the case of the family, the 2-room apartment is…

  4. Ability to add attachments (photos/documents) to tasks. This is critical for Maintenance and Housekeeping operations as the assignee will be able to see exactly what/where the issue is. In addition, if this element is used for management to assign, track and review team tasks, the ability to add blueprints, schematics, schedules, etc. for maintenance is necessary.

  5. Option to minimalize a reservation (for example keep it in the right bottom of the timeline). It could allow you to continue with other tasks and than later on get back to the reservation/booking that you were working on. It could also be a reminder for yourself that you need to follow up on that certain reservation.

  6. Once a guest purchases an additional product (wine, airport transfer etc.) along with making a room reservation, the Reservations department gets an automatic task.
    As the Front Desk is the department taking care of organising this, it would be useful if you could choose to which department these tasks get assigned to.

  7. We are trying to remove the unit number from a provisional booking but don't seem to be able to do so. this is something you are able to do with a confirmed booking. any chance this feature can be enabled for optional bookings too?
    thanks

  8. I really liked the old timeline where you could zoom in and out using the mouse wheel.

    It's nice that you can scroll the timeline using the mouse wheel now.

    My suggestion would be:
    Holding the macOS Command or Option or Control key + mouse wheel --> you can zoom in and out on the timeline.

    Same with Windows, probably simply the Control key + mouse wheel.

    With this, zooming in and out would be much simpler than it is right now.

  9. Sometimes clients book 2 consecutive nights through 2 different means. It would help the communication with housekeeping if the reception was able to "link" the 2 reservations together so it is clear that the same person stays in the room. Additionally, it would be helpful to have an automatic detection of this kind of things, like a notification warning us that a reservation has been made with a similar name a day before or after.

  11. Es wäre schön, wenn im Reservierungsüberblick auch die Firma des Gastes aufgezeigt werden könnte. Auf diese Weise sieht man auf einen Blick, welche Anreisen/Abreisen/Bleiben zusammen gehören.

  12. We're very happy with the new timeline feature filter! An improvement in our eyes would be if it also were possible to select multiple features and that the filter shows all the rooms which have one of the selected features. At the moment the filters only shows rooms which have all the selected features.

  14. When displaying Hotel Guest Name on the Timeline why cant you add how many occupants are in that rom as well ie Smith/Jones 2 or Jackson 3 which would be very helpful as a quicker view of how many guests staying instead of going over multiple reports and clicks.

  15. When using Mews to book a reservation, there are times a manager needs to have the ability to override the restrictions and "Force-Sell" a room. Example the property may have a 2 night minimum, but wants to book a VIP for 1 night only. The process now is to remove the restriction, book the reservation and put the restriction back on which exposes availability. Better to have a NS (Normal Sell using restrictions) and FS (Force-Sell with overrides restrictions) for Management use only.

  16. It would be useful to be able to lock the rate of a reservation when making price agreements for a one-time booking, just like you are able to lock the booking to a specific roomnumber. Now, when you or a colleague makes any changes to the reservation, you have the risk of changing the rate.

  17. The ability for a customer to create one reservation with multiple room types in that single reservation. The guest that stays in a beach villa and then wants to move to an overwater bungalow for example. Having this as one single reservation.

  18. we sometimes deal with an existing booking wishing to change unit types during their stay. even though they haven't checked in yet, it would be much easier if we were able to split the booking (and thus keeping all the notes) rather than having to duplicate the booking, copying the notes, adjust the dates, rates, etc..

  19. When a reservation is made or changed and the system does not assign a room to it and it is going to drop in to the red line - there should be a warning that pops up to let us know this is happening so that it can be rectified straight away.

  20. What we would like is to be able to change the PAX on a nightly basis.

    E.g.
    "Guest A" has reserved a room for 5 nights. On night 1,2,3 Guest A stays in the room alone. Night 4 & 5 "Guest B" will join "Guest A" in the same room.

    As for now we have no possibility to change the amount adults/children since there's already products that has been consumed previous nights. (breakfast --> via product rule)
    This makes our safety list, and other reports show the wrong amount of overnight guests and products.
