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.

  2. We often have large groups of guests with on all rooms the same items booked. If we make a mistake, or something changes in the booking, we have to go room by room to cancel the wrong item. It would be great that if you select rooms with the same items on them, ( because you add the items to all the roms at the same time) you can also remove them all together.

  3. Request for a room allocation strategy prioritizing rooms with the longest vacancy periods. This approach helps reduce unnecessary housekeeping costs and supports Legionella prevention.

  4. In other systems we had before we could see in the mobil versjon who created the task and who have updateded it. it would be greate if we could see it in the mews app aswell. I can see that in mews desktop versjon i can see this info, but its much better to have it in the app aswell since our technical department only take with their phone when they go out to do a task.

  7. The Excel rooming list can now only be uploaded once and not more. When trying another upload, it is not possible. We often have group rooming lists who change a lot and it would be easy if we can "upload" new rooming lists and override the old ones by just one click (also owner/guest function) and all other information like phone number, e-mail address, country, etc.

  8. When creating a new profile to associate with a bill or to issue the bill on the company during check out it takes very long for a new company profile to be available for selection as company owner or associated profile. Sometimes it takes several minutes for the company profile to become available in the input fields!!!
    This is unacceptable for most guests and unnecessarily prolongs and delays the checkout process.

  10. Currently, Mews does not allow users to transfer space categories to different bookable services; instead, users have to be manually recreated in the new service. It would be beneficial and useful if we could create a transfer process (Rates, Products included)

    1. Operational Efficiency

    • Eliminates the need for manual recreation of space categories, rates, and products, saving significant time for property managers.
    • Reduces human error during manual setup, ensuring consistency across services.

    2. Scalability and Flexibility

    • Makes it easier for hotels to reorganize or expand services (e.g., moving rooms from “Accommodation” to “Event Spaces”) without disrupting existing configurations.
    • Supports multi-service…

  11. Currently, tasks in Mews can only be marked with a deadline and then completed. However, it would be very helpful to have an additional status — such as “In Progress” — to indicate when someone has already started working on a task.

    This would greatly improve team communication and coordination, especially in situations where multiple users might otherwise pick up the same task or wonder whether it’s already being handled.

    Having a clear task lifecycle (e.g. To Do → In Progress → Done) would provide more visibility and reduce confusion.

  12. Summary of the Issue

    During check-out, we frequently face the problem that POS receipts (e.g. from MEWS POS or other integrations) cannot be properly split across multiple rooms or guest invoices.
    This is because identical POS items are automatically merged into a single billing item (e.g. multiple grape juices combined into one position).

    Once merged, this item cannot be split afterwards and can therefore only be settled on one invoice.
    The only workaround is to manually calculate and allocate amounts across different payment methods, which is time-consuming and error-prone.

    In contrast, bookable services (e.g. breakfast) are handled as individual, divisible…

  13. Be able to quickly and easily export all invoices (in PDF format) for a specific period (day, week, month) with a single click.
    Currently, you have to click on each invoice, print it, and save it as a PDF.
    An individual PDF export for the desired period would make this task much easier.

  14. Hi Mews team!

    We would like to request a minor adjustment to the color coding on our reservation timeline to improve our daily workflow and reduce manual errors.

    The Issue:
    Currently, both "Check-out Today" and "Check-in Today" use a very similar shade of blue. When the booking department and reception team is assisting guests with stay extensions or late check-out requests, it is difficult to distinguish between a guest who is due to depart today and the guest who is to arrive when looking at the same room to checkin and out of. This occasionally leads to mistakes when selecting…

  15. It would be great if it was possible to view the product checklist in the Mews mobile app.
    Then we do not have to print the list (save the planet) and the list is always updated

  18. Dear MEWS Team,

    I would like to share a suggestion regarding the Timeline view, which has a huge yet unexpressed potential.

    While visually clean, it does not leverage one of the most powerful tools for operational efficiency: colour-coding.

    Color can instantly convey information that, otherwise, requires opening each booking or navigating multiple sections. Introducing colour indicators directly on the Timeline could transform it into a true operational dashboard, providing immediate, high-impact insights for the front office and reservations teams.

    Here are some examples of what colour-coding could highlight:
    • Payment Status (e.g., prepaid, pending, partially paid, failed)
    • Booking Source…

  19. Expand the "Responsibility" section so it can also function as a restriction layer, not only a notification feature.

    Current:
    **Offer to Employee = All employees have access and visibility into the service, which they can sell/post. It does not offer "exceptions".

    **The responsibility section in the service is mainly for Notifications or Tasks.

    Desired behavior:

    Add a configuration option in Service Settings:
    “Restrict service management to the responsible department/user only.”

    When enabled:

    Only staff or user groups assigned as Responsible can:
    Sell the service
    Modify service orders
    Manage related items/products

    Non‑responsible staff:
    Can view the service (configurable), but
    Cannot sell…

  20. Clients would benefit from the ability to assign or customize counters at the service level rather than just at the property level. Today’s setup only allows counters to be selected from a property‑wide dropdown, which introduces avoidable human error and operational inefficiencies.

    Problem

    • Counters are defined at the property level, meaning all services pull from the same shared list.
    • Staff must manually choose the correct counter from a dropdown when posting charges.
    • This manual selection is error‑prone, especially for properties with many outlets, departments, or revenue streams.
    • Incorrect counter selection leads to downstream reporting and accounting discrepancies that…
