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. It makes sense to me to flexibility in AR Management.
    The 30 | 60 | 90 day industry standard seems to suit many hoteliers but is hard coded in most PMSs with AR Modules/functions.

    Some operators in Japan wish to manage and reconcile AR Accounts by calendar month. This is likely to be true elsewhere, given flexibility to do so.

  2. Currently, Mews does not allow sending an automated email before the guest's arrival to request a bank pre-authorization as a guarantee. It is currently possible to realize a pre-authorization but only on the amount of the reservation. So I want to realize a pre-authorization for the booking amount and add the deposit amount, for example 500 euros. Can you add this feature please?

  3. It would be fantastic if you could get the option to replicate stay restrictions on the base rate to all dependent rates.

    I know that there is the possibility of applying restrictions to multiple rates simultaneously.

    Some RMS's (Revenue Management systems) are playing with the idea of allowing you to send stay controls from the RMS. The only challenge is that they usually only allow mapping to one rate (your base rate), and hence any restrictions applied using your RMS will only apply to the base rate and not the dependent rates.

    Slightly complexed.... the basic question is how to…

  4. Ideally we would like to be able to reuse rates for promotions, just changing the name and percentage of discount.

    Currently if you change the name of the rate it will change as well in all existing reservations, when ideally this would not be the case.

    If we have the same logic that applies to the price (it does not change in an existing booking even if you change it later) to the rate name then we will be able to reuse rates without need to create a new one every time we launch a promotion.

  5. In order to avoid seeing "None" under nationality in the customer statistics due to missing companion's profile, I would suggest that the system take the owner guest's nationality as default.

  6. When you need to extend a booking, you manually need to move future booking(s) before extending. If the future bookings aren't locked they should just be replaced in the timeline the same way as if you move between spaces.

    The problem happens when hotels are quite fully booked and you need to remove space for reservations and the puzzle it all together again after extending the one reservation in question.

  7. It would be nice to have the option to add the space number into booker confirmation. We drive revenue by allowing customers to pay extra to select their exact space number, and having the ability to show them this on their confirmation and not just pre-arrival would be helpful.

  8. On my team, we have a lot of people that "wear many hats" As an example, we have 6 people on the guest services team. 2 of those 6 are concierge as well and will be the ones assigned to follow up with a guest when they request recommendations.

    Instead of assigning a task generally to the whole Guest Services team and wait for these two specific people to address the task, I would like to be able to assign people multiple roles so that those two people can be Guest Services and Concierge. This is just an example, at…

  9. At the moment, MEWS only has the option of "Overridable prices". It would be great to have a "Discount" option where we can apply certain discounts to items of the choice (in percentages that will reflect to the amount). Connected to this, a report for all discounts given would be a good addition.

  11. Als je het gastprofiel invult met voornaam en achternaam, dan wordt dat rechtstreeks op de factuur getoond. Dat betekent dat er dan bijv. Jan Jansen staat. Het is gastvrijer om daar dhr. Jan Jansen of dhr. J. Jansen te laten zien. Dit is een behoorlijk belangrijke aanpassing volgens ons

  12. Would it be possible to Also consider creating a capability within the existing Import File to identify "companions" within a reservation and upload such data into Mews? (Besides the Rooming List template).

  15. The Kiosk can be configured so that guests cannot check in with an outstanding balance, but this is not available in the main browser-based Mews. This means a user can check in a guest that has an outstanding balance, without Mews even asking them to confirm.

    It would be very useful if there were options to not allow a guest to check in with an outstanding balance at all, as well as Mews asking to confirm if the user wants to proceed with checking in with an outstanding balance. This will remove the likelihood of a guest checking in, staying…

  18. Single Space Under 2 or more category type

    The feature to automatically disable the other category when one category is booked for a single room/bed is not available.

    For example Room 101 is a Quad room but I also want it to be a four-bed dormitory room. Depends on the first customer the bed will be selected as a quad room or a 4 bed dormitory. The other category will be disabled when another one is selected if dormitory it will be dormitory and quad room category will be disabled for that room.

  19. A guest's balance should be readily apparent at the top of their profile as soon as you click on their name on the timeline, without having to load the full profile or scroll down at all, for every type of reservation.

  20. With the Synxis > Mews integration we have the option to enable "Create company and travel agency profiles". Is it possible to also include a second step which creates a routing rule for the agency?
