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 events to metrics and reports. 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 would be much more efficient if we could add a new payment method directly while creating a reservation—without needing to first create a profile or open a separate tab. Many of us finalize reservations without a payment method initially, so having this option in the same workflow would really streamline the process.

    Thank you!

  2. When attempting to export more than 4MB of data, the Reservation Report often fails and times out, particularly for larger enterprise properties.

    It is important to take into account that properties with larger inventories are likely to have more reservation data overall; therefore, they should not have to constantly rely on exporting smaller batches and having to piece them together.

  3. In order to have a control of the client in the hotel for their extras, we need a report with pending payment but only the client who are in the hotel, no futur client.

  4. Ce serait pratique d'avoir le montant des factures dans le tableau de bord d'un client. Aujourd'hui on se retrouve avec plein d'info :Propriétaire
    Type de profil
    Client
    Société
    Numéro de TVA du propriétaire
    Émis
    Date d'échéance
    Payé
    Rappel envoyé
    Statut
    Notes

    Mais pas le montant.

  5. Problem:
    When you update a product price in Mews (like breakfast), it only applies to new bookings. But if a guest changes their reservation (like the dates), Mews may remove the original product and re-add it at the new price not the one that was originally booked. This causes confusion for staff, inconsistent pricing for guests, and potential overcharges. Even with the workaround of creating new product versions and stopping sales of the old one, the issue can still happen, especially when guests change bookings via OTAs like Booking.com.

    Proposed Solution:
    Mews should offer a way to lock the product…

  6. You should be able to change the customer on a reservation without first having to add them as a companion. The current process creates an unnecessary and inefficient workflow.

    For example, if a booker initially makes a reservation under Joe Smith but later wants to change the guest name to Jane Doe, the hotel reservations agent must:
    1. Change the reservation to two guests
    2. Add Jane Doe as a companion
    3. Assign Jane Doe as the primary guest
    4. Remove Joe Smith from the reservation
    5. Change the reservation back to one adult

    That’s five steps just to change…

  7. Inventory on products should be possible. For instance limit a certain product such as pet to only x number sold pr. day.
    As of now we have to close an entire product for all dates if this is sold out on one date.
    This is causing loss of potential revenue as well as poor service for the guests.

  8. We have just moved across to MEWS so far there is a lot to like, but there are a few issues that are making it a real pain at time...

    1) Ability to sort the timeline in numerical order, I appreciate all the other filter options but sometimes just viewing spaces in numerical order is greatly appreciated

    2) ability to use our own in house colours for reservations this allows a quick glance at the timeline to gain a lot of information without having to search for it

    1) Ability to change it to Space number first then…

  10. We currently have the ability to auto close bills at checkout. Can we please have the ability to auto close bills during the guest confirmation process, as long as the balance is $0? We use Enzo connect for the guest journey and this feature would allow their systems to work properly.

  11. We’d like the flexibility to define different cancellation policies per room category, without creating separate rates.
    Example:
    - Standard Room: free cancellation up to 7 days before arrival
    - Suite with Sea View: free cancellation up to 14 days before arrival

    Both should be part of the same rate, shown consistently across booking channels and internal systems.
    Maybe as a rule?

    Thank You!

  12. Is it possible to change the number of items on the product checklist to, for example, 250? Currently when we switch pages the system slows down, so it would be great to have all items on one list for a smoother operation.

  13. Is it possible to add a consumption date in the invoice preview for the products and services?
    To see the consumption details we need to "print” the invoice to see the overview.
    It would be more optimal to have it visible on the invoice preview.

  14. In order to issue invoices in the "Overview by date (no reservation details)" invoice format we would need 3 changes to be implemented:

  16. Da die Standard Quellen nicht immer Sinn machen, wäre es toll, diese individuell pro Betrieb anpassen zu können.
    Z.B.
    E-Mail/Telefon
    Webseite (MEWS Booking ENgine verknüpfen?)
    Homelike
    Homegate
    Airbnb

  18. Is it possible to consider not making this field mandatory to set the number of days, especially if the property wishes for their integration to default all space status changes, and Mews not to be the one changing the space to Dirty automatically.

    If it must be mandatory, it would be useful if properties using "Housekeeping Integrations" could select their integration in a drop-down menu from that field to indicate that Mews will not automatically change the status of the space. The clients can revert back to Mews and Set the number of days as needed.

  19. We would really appreciate having the option for parking to be automatically marked as “checked-in” once the guest checks into their room and also automatically adding the parking booked on the bill to the timeline of Parking Service.

    Currently, having to switch between services to manually check in the parking is inconvenient and time-consuming, especially during busy check-in times. Automating this step would greatly improve front desk efficiency.

    Additionally, it would be very helpful to have a “parking” icon displayed in the guest profile, so we can quickly see who has a parking spot.

    It would also be useful to…
