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. We would like more granular control over billing automation.
    Currently, the system allows certain items to be moved automatically to other profiles or bills, which is helpful, but not sufficient for our operational needs.

    We are requesting the ability to:

    Select specific nights of a reservation and automatically route those charges to a different profile or bill.

    Select specific items (e.g., certain rate components or extras) to be billed to a separate profile or folio.

    This workflow exists in systems like Opera and OneQ (commonly used in Hilton hotels), where items can be assigned as:

    PM (Paymaster) – charges routed…

  2. Currently, the way room numbers are sorted in Mews is fixed and there is no way to change it quickly. It would be helpful to be able to sort rooms numerically, alphabetically or by floor and to allow for quick changes between these displays for different workflows.

  3. MEWS is very often asking for Feedback in a small window and asks how likely it is, that I would recommend MEWS regarding to the action I just took.
    I really love MEWS, and like to involve and help.
    I always have to either rate or cancel this window, and if a couple of tasks is going on, or more than one customer is before me, my workflow is really disturbed. It would be lovely if you'd ask not so often or in another way.
    I know it is not really a idea, but I wanted to offer other Mewsers…

  4. It would be very helpful if a percentage could be stored in the price hierarchy to specify the price difference between room types.

    When we merged two room types, the occupancy rate of the subordinate room category stopped being displayed, and it became impossible to adjust prices individually or override the price hierarchy.

    Therefore, we reversed the merger.

    An easy way could be to work with fixed percentages in the price hierarchy.

  5. Wenn Gäste online buchen & Zahlen, wird eine Rechnung (Rechnungsnummer X) erstellt. Wenn der Gast dann eincheckt, wird nach Rechnungsstellung eine "Zahlung" erstellt mit einer neuen Rechnungsnummer. Dadurch gibt es extrem viele Rechnungsnummern, was es für die Finanzbuchhaltung sehr unübersichtlich macht. Kann man Rechnungen / Anzahlungen & Zahlungen sinnvoll kennzeichnen? Können Gutschriften dementsprechend als "Gutschrift" gekennzeichnet werden.

  6. One User profile for PMS, POS and Events
    Please let the users switch from one system to the other by using the same user profile and not 3 different ones.

  7. It would be helpful to be able to work with a date when adjusting the price of products, e.g. City Taxe valid until date xx.xx.xxxx CHF.... from date xx.xx.xxxx CHF ... valid. City taxes are legal requirements that can change from time to time.

  8. We would like to be able to mark a Mother Company as a Mother Company, to be able to sort and search only for Mother Companys.
    This Mother Company should not be treated as a regular Company Account, as it is a Master which combines the regular Companys.
    Further we need to be able to differentiate between Mother Companys and regular Companys not only in Mews, but in the API as well.

  9. Sería de gran ayuda un permiso de Usuario que permita saltar restricciones de tarifas a la hora de introducir reservas.

    En nuestro caso trabajamos con tarifas que están limitadas por mínimas y máximas estancias de x noches. Y en ocasiones tenemos que hacer excepciones para prolongaciones de clientes.

    Así que nos vemos obligados a quitar la restricción para poder introducir la reserva, y volver a ponerla.

    Esto se solucionaría con un permiso para saltar restricciones.

    Saludos,

  10. At the moment you are unable to see the specific group that has remaining rooms that have not been picked up, instead you see all the groups with blocks during the specified dates.
    With that you need to go into each of the groups to check which ones still have rooms that have not been picked up nor released.

  11. Often we require the guests address for statistics or police reporting purposes. It would be great if guest address would be part of the rooming list to bulk upload those addresses.

  12. Bonjour, j'ai créé un groupe de 10 chambres, mais je veux ajouter une chambre a ce groupe, une personne s'est ajouter à la dernière minute. J'ai essayé de plusieurs façon mais rien n'y fait. Les groupes ne sont jamais fixes il peut y avoir des chambres en moins ou en plus.

  13. Smaller hotels in our chain would like to be able to send newsletters to specific groups of guests, and having a mail template to adjust between seasons and campaign would be a simple way to handle this locally at the hotel.

  14. It would be great to be able to export the group allotment chart to show clients their group block pick-up. Copy and pasting the data from the Dashboard does not paste properly in Excel, Numbers, or any other app (Pages, Outlook, etc)

  15. Currently restrictions only consider the arrival date and not the departure date.

    This means that if I want only allow bookings at my property from today - 365 days from now, setting the below restriction is not enough to close out the property from day 366 onwards. This restriction will allow a reservation to start on day 1 - 364 and end any day afterwards.

    Restriction type: Closed to Stay/Arrival/Departure
    Maximum advance: 365 days

    The best current workaround is to set the below restriction. However, this restricts stays arriving on day 336 - 365, and also for more than 30…

  17. 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.

  19. Dear Mews Team,

    We highly value the flexibility and efficiency Mews provides in managing our daily operations. However, we would like to suggest an improvement to further enhance security and accountability within the platform, particularly concerning refunds.

    Currently, refund permissions in Mews are not granular enough to allow businesses to effectively control the maximum refund amounts that can be processed by various team members. This presents challenges in maintaining financial oversight and ensuring that only authorized personnel handle larger refunds.

    We propose the introduction of enhanced permission settings that allow businesses to:

    Set Refund Limits: Define maximum refund amounts that…

  20. It would be helpful to have more charging rules or patterns for products.

    Especially for long term bookings (still with a nightly rate) it can be necessary to add a product on a weekly, bi-weekly or monthly pattern.
