Derived Tax Exempt Rates (USA)
Tax-exempt rates should allow for derived from taxed rates. The current functionality requires US properties to maintain 2 Base Rates -- 1 taxed and 1 tax-exempt. The taxes are irrelevant to the base rate pricing, and a are function of the guest type (church, government, non-profit), OTA pays tax, or 30+ day stay. There is no reason they should be managed separately from other rates.

Date of birth in reservation report
Dear Software Team,
Greetings from Amsterdam. We have a feature request that I believe would improve the user experience and add more value to the businesses. I would like to suggest adding a column for the guests’ date of birth into the reservation report.
The addition of the date of birth column would provide several benefits. Firstly, it would allow businesses to better understand their customer demographics. In addition, it is obligatory to have a report including date of birth, to submit for the deduction of local (Amsterdam) guests for the city tax (for the yearly submittance to the local…

Deactivate automatically closing of invoices (deposits)
Due to the change that already closed invoices cannot be rewritten to company, it is mandatory that MEWS absolutely does not close any invoices automatically. Payments that are received directly after posting, for example, are posted directly against the product and the invoice is closed. Here I can not change the company address from now on. However, on this first invoice the tax statement is visible. If this invoice is charged back and recreated so that it is issued to the company, unfortunately the tax statement is missing here. MEWS is no longer allowed (at least in Germany) to automatically…

New Spanish Police Report
The new Real Decreto 933/2021 is now in place and all the spanish hotels have up to 02/Jun/2023 to implement it. It requires the collection of more guest data during checkin (online and/or at front desk) and to provide a new report to the police database.
We need this feature to be adjusted ASAP, before spring. Thanks2 votesHello from the Mews product team.

Modify City Tax Product to not impact rate
The City tax product should be loaded so to not impact the rate. Should the number of guests in a room evolve (from two to one), the nightly rate of the room should not be impacted. One city tax should simply be removed from the billing.

Showing subtotals on the reservation screen
When creating a new reservation, on the right handside, the total is including all the added products & city tax. We should be able to see a subtotal NOT including the City Tax.
Further more, as we could only see the average rate before, it would be great to have the rate detailed per night.12 votesHello Mélissa,

Threshold Tax Logic
There are some legal environments where the threshold tax applies. It means that if the rate of the stay is below a specific amount (e.g. $50/night), the occupancy tax doesn't apply.
The tax logic in Mews doesn't support it which prevents hostels to use Mews in regions like San Francisco or British Columbia.
The tax logic should treat nights above and below certain price range differently.

Grouping Additional Expenses
Can we please have "Additional Expenses" grouped together the same way Products group on the "Items" tab in the reservation screen. Currently these show line by line and for City Tax for longer stays this creates a massive list. It is then harder to handle as you have cancel them 1 by 1, which then forces the PMS to refresh after each cancellation!
We have different agreements with OTAs and sometimes the CT is already covered in a different way.
This would be beneficial for other Expenses introduced in tot he system later on.
It should be a quick win…2 votesHello from the Mews product team,

A discount (%) campaign should also be possible to reduce also Products (Product Rule) with that %.
A discount (%) campaign should also be possible to reduce also Products (Product Rule) with that %. The obvious example is breakfasts - yet, preserving city tax without any % discount. This way, the myriad of special discounted Products, Product Rules etc would be avoided.

Routing Rules for Product Categories only
Currently when you create a routing rule you can select a product category to be routed. However when doing so you need to also select either the nights or city tax to be routed. It would be good if you could select just a product category.

Some small changes in the usability
Some small changes in the usability:
- Simplification of the date input for reports and reservation window, in which the start and end correlate to each other. If I select a start date in the future, the end date will also appear in the future, similar to the reservation input.
- Make grayed numbers selectable at the date of the next month.
- Extend reservation and manager report by another date input for the following functions: how many bookings were made in time period X for time period Y.
- Enable statistics showing which nightly added products are assigned to…8 votesHello from the Mews product team. Thank you for your suggestion, we have updated your request and set it as one to be upvoted by the Mews Community.

Impossible to report on net room revenue per rate code when city tax is hardcoded and included
When city tax is hard coded in Mews (such in Hamburg) and included in the rate, Mews makes two postings, one to deduct city tax from the room rate and one to add it as city tax.
Mews marks both of those postings as "additional expenses". This is incorrect, as the reduction of the rate is a "space charge", not an "additional expense".
Consequence is that the hotels are unable to report on net room revenue in all reservation reports, as they cannot filter out the city tax / additional expense as originally foreseen by Mews.

registration card Austria in once Fellow Travellers
In Austria the registration law wants the adress, id ccard and signature from the main Traveller and the name and date of birth of the fellow passengers. Mews prints and want all the data of each guest. Better would be also for the digital path that the main traveller has the oppurtunity to fill in the data from his self and also int the same form off his fellow travellers

Invoice without details
Many customers ask for an invoice for their stays without details.
Now, each invoice contains the details of the services and on the same page a summary of the taxes.
It would be interesting to have the summary of the taxes on a separate page and which includes the same header and footer of the detailed invoice.4 votesHello all,

Create a possibility to exclude some product from the cancellation fees (in the settings)
It would be nice if their is a possibility to exclude product from the cancellation fees. For example: we do want to charge our product breakfast in our cancellation fees, but we want to exclude our tourism tax (verblijfsbijdrage) from the cancellation fee. At this moment this is not possible.

Easier setup of rebate accounting category for hard-coded city tax
At the moment it is difficult to set up the accounting categories for the hard-coded city tax because it is a combination of leaving empty the rebate accounting category in the bookable service settings and defining the categories in Accounting configuration - Additional expenses.

Add setting for products 'commissionable' or 'non commissionable'
In order to get more accurate commission overviews we would like an option when setting up a product to define whether it's commissionable or non commissionable (so if it should calculate for the commission overview).
Things like city tax, extra products (not via OTA) are non-commissionable but will still be counted for commission rate.
A tickbox Comm/Non Comm will solve this and provide more accurate commission overviews to support invoicing and business intelligence.4 votesHello from the Mews product team.

Accounting category of canceled items
We can´t define a specific accounting category for canceled items for deposits or hardcoded city tax. The accounting category is taken from the Canceled item accounting category defined in the Bookable service. But deposits and city taxes are usually having different accounting categories than nights.

billing by month option
I have a comment regarding the possibility of grouping billing items by month.
I really like this option, but it has a small flaw that should be corrected.
The tourist tax is not linked to the night, but is charged the next day.
The tourist tax + the night should be classified together.
For example, for a stay straddling January and February 2022:
17 nights in January for only 16 tourist taxes
11 nights in February for 12 tourist taxes, the one of 31/01/22 appearing in the February invoice1 voteHello from the Mews product team.
