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. Optional reservations should not be confirmable without adding a credit card as guarantee, Big corporations cannot have control of reservations that the clients were able to confirm without a credit card as guarantee this can cause lots of no shows and issues.

  3. We really enjoy the ability to cancel products from billing and cancel orders from the guest dashboard, but there currently doesn't exist a way to audit cancelled products/items by cancellation date. We are able to filter by creation date of the product, but that makes it hard to track items created several months ago that may have been cancelled in the last week, for example.

  5. 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?

  6. In the Reservation overview report some reservations are displayed with no notes at all, where in fact there are notes attached to the reservation. This seems to happen for notes where the text content of the notes filed is very long. Thus it would be helpfull to show only the first lines of the notes with an indicator to view the full notes by opening the reservation details. Like "Some very long note text here. ...... See more by opening Details"
    As of how it is implemented right now, it could be assumed that no notes are attached to the…

  8. We have a lot of guest visiting from Belgium. Would be great if they could pay with Bankcontact and Sofort. We hear from a lot of guest that they would prefer to use this payment method.

  9. When multiple reservations are selected within the group, users can easily make changes on the "Properties" tab or lock unlocking reservations and there are no warnings given.

    It would be great if there is a small warning saying that the change will be applied to all the selected reservations.

  10. If you're searching for a company but the company doesn't exist in the system, usually there is an option to 'add new company' but this option doesn't exist when searching in the company field of the the guest profile for some reason. This would be super handy and avoid a lot of extra clicks.

  11. Many details are visible in the overview field but for us a very important detail is who made the booking.
    This person has the overview and does the follow up.
    Now I have to go to "Action log" which is packed with all kinds of updates often irrelevant to the case and scroll all the way down to the bottom to find the name of the creator.
    I need to know ASAP who made the booking so I know who to ask about the booking.
    Thank you.

  12. When migrating data from past provider to Mews, allow importing the original creation date of all reservations being migrated to facilitate analysis of the booking pace (comparing booking creation date and guest's arrival date)

  13. We are missing a more efficient way to visualize cancellations in the reservation reports. Right now, you can see the cancelled status with a grey color that is not clear enough. Maybe red of a more vivid color.

  14. A feature to post a fixed charge to roll on a specific date, so that you do not have to remember to post the revenue on the correct day - less chance of error this way

  15. It is recommended to setup daily or even hourly exports of important reports to prepare for possible desasters. Only Enterprise Subscribers may choose and FTP Export Target. All others are limited to email exports. However, this way massive amounts of sensitive customer data is transmitted over possibly insecure connections (unencrypted email / SMTP). That could be a GDPR violation!
    I suggest making secure/encrypted sFTP Exports available for everyone and/or implement a way to guarantee secure email transmission (at least SMTPs with certifcate pinning).
    Also those reports may be a potential risk when at rest (stored in an email account or…

  17. When sending Support Cases, we can not see what was already sent, even when receiving a reply we can not see our originally asked question.
    It would be good to have an overview of all Support Cases in the company in one place. This makes communication easier and we can always refresh our knowledge by going through tickets instead of asking again and to have One raised case as a one thread.

  18. When allocating room numbers to employees it is not possible to see if a room is already allocated to another employee. Most days our houskeeping manager devides about 100 room, and its easy to miss that you have allready allcoted the room. It also dose that she acually prints out the list, marks the rooms on paper, and then allocate the rooms in MEWS operations.

    Rooms should be marked/flaged when assigned to make it easier.

  19. We are using the 'New Mews Terminal Payment' tool since few month already.
    This is very helpfull indeed, except for the group on C/O this morning

    Most of people in the group are 'Blind or partially sighted'
    They had problem with the 'Mews Terminal( The terminal has no '''MARK' or feeling option on the screen to enter their PIN code to confirm payment.

    How would you solve this in future ?

  20. This was already posted before and it got 25 votes. The moderator answered that there is already an 'in person' option but this is not enough as there are more actions that happen 'in person'. As a hotel you want to distinguish between walk-ins and extensions from reservations that both happen in person.
