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 billing. 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. As housekeeping complete their daily cleaning schedule, they are often responsible for restocking minibar products or other room amenities. Therefore, adding stay product details within the Commander application could provide stocking information and reporting capabilities so that each room is prepared exactly right for the next arriving guest.

  2. Currently, it’s not possible to change the rate of an availability block once it’s created. To make any adjustments, the block would need to be deleted and a new one created.

    It would be very helpful to have the option to modify the rate directly without having to delete and recreate the block.:)

  5. 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?

  7. It would be useful if Mews could automatically close a bill once it is balanced. This would mean the bill is pushed to integrated accounting software (e.g. Xero) at the time of payment being received, so that accounts can be easily reconciled. Currently, a booking could be made in Mews for several months in the future and payment taken at the time of booking, however the bill will not be closed and then pushed to the integrated accounting software until they check out (or it is done manually). This means accounts cannot be easily reconciled without extra work.

    It would…

  8. Reservation screen has multiple tabs - billing, payments, dashboard, profile. It takes a lot of steps to find all information and it doesn't sit in one place. Simplify getting around the reservation with all the details.

  9. When we create a new rate in the Channel Manager, it would be best practice if we could only send that rate to the channel manager and not all the rates that we have in the channel manager as how is today. Of cause, we need to have a "full property push" available, but the option to push just the newly created rate would be the best in a day-to-day basis. Then the data that we send out is going to be much less.

  10. To expand on the new Group Blocks feature, I would love a simple Group Block Agreement form/report that summarizes the number of rooms blocked, the dates associated with the rooms and the nightly (pre-tax) rooms rate.

    It would have a customizable "terms" section where we can note cancelation policies, block release date etc and have a signature page for the client to sign.

    Right now we have to generate this outside of Mews, which creates additional work. Happy to send you a sample of what we are looking for!

    Thanks for listening!

    Hello Stacy,

    Thank you very much for sharing your feedback with us. If you are able to share an example, that would be very helpful for us to understand the information you envision being added to a block.

    Which types of groups would you typically add "terms' for? For example corporates or leisure. 

  11. It will be great to have the opportunity to have two differents VAT at 10%. One for food and one for accomodation.

  12. I would like to be able to download the action log to excel. It will make it easier for me to control the work of the revenue manager who changes the prices. It would be good to be able to download this report automatically via exports ->schedules.

  14. It would be great if you had the option to not only update a task when opening it, but also to close it from that same window. Now you need to update it, close the task and then only are you able to complete it from the list (task list or within the reservation).
    would save time if you had that close button within the task (so both update and complete/close)

  15. Currently you can adjust a price for an entire space category for an unlimitied period of time. Could be great to have the possibility to have different prices adjustements according to certain period of time.
    Example: the Superior room is +20% from the classic from 1st january to 28th february and + 50% from 01st march to 31 may.

  16. It makes sense to be able to see not only imminent (Pending) or past-date (Missed) tasks but also upcoming (Future) tasks on the main page ("Tasks" doughnut) - without having to go into the report every single time.

    The current state of affairs makes it often necessary to remind staffers of upcoming tasks outside of that section (or outside of MEWS e.g. emails, sticky-notes et al.), which does not make for a stellar user experience.

  18. When you add a product to a reservation, you can enter a consumption time.
    If you work with shifts/meal times for instance, it would be nice to have the consumption time (hh:mm) in your product report.

  19. COULD IT BE POSSIBLE TO ADD A "CLOSE INVENTORY FUNCTION" ?
    1) "BUCKET A" IS THE ENTIRE HOTEL
    2) BUCKET B" IS CORP RATES
    3) BUCKET C IS LEISURE RATES
    4) BUCET D IS STAFF RATES ETC ETC
    IF YOU CLOSE OUT BUCET 1 - ALL THE BUCETS CLOSE. BUT IF YOU CLOSE UT I.E BUCET "C", A AND B WILL STILL SELL - THAT WAY YOU CAN GIVE KAM ACCOUNTS LONGER AVAILABILITY THEN I.E BOOKING.COM
    ALSO A FUNCTION TO OPEN CLOSE OUT SPESIFIC ROOM CATEGORIES IN A SIGLE CLICK.
