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. Not only to make it easier for employees but also to prevent people from having multiple usernames and passwords so that when someone is terminated, the access to all systems can easily be removed.

  2. If a guest has booked a rate that is Full board for example(dinner inluded in the rate), the POS has to recognize this and when posting a dinner for example; Mews has to allocate it to the right cost center and hide it from guest bill (because it's included in the rate)

  3. In the summary screen of the voucher menu you only show the Name, Company, Travel Agent. We would like you to add in Rate Code and Expire Date in the overview. As its end of the year we now need to click into every voucher code to check if the voucher is still valid or not. We need a better overview on the created vouchers.

  4. Order of the spaces are currently not translated to the overview when you are booking the room so at the moment it cannot be changed.

    Would be great if the room display order pulls through here as well.

  5. To be able to create a combined/if restriction.
    As an example: For a full refund of the nightly rate, the guest must cancel within 48 hours of the creation of the booking AND at least 14 full days prior to the start date of the booking.
    At the moment, it is only possible to have either one of the two cancellation policies.

    Hello all,


    This status update is part of our ongoing work to simplify and streamline how our UserVoice feedback forum operates. We are reducing the number of statuses to two (Idea to Upvote + Released) to help manage expectations about where each idea stands and to minimize the number of status updates required from our product teams. Our product team reviews everything you share, and we might reach out for more info if we need it. 


    Thanks for your patience as we work to bring your ideas to life! You can learn more about the changes coming to UserVoice from this post in the Mews Community.

  8. When we compare the Managers report to other reports in Mews reports & analytics & 3rd party systems that are extracting data via the API we see variances between data. We've been advised that the Managers Report is a snapshot report & does not use live data, when reservations change inside the editable window the Snapshot Managers report is not updated.

    The managers report and it's format is great but we suggest having the managers report as a live report which queries the database when ran and returns true/accurate numbers that stack up to the the API output.

  9. I understand there is a function in MEWS to automate the deposits for new reservations. Is there a way to exclude restricted rates from this automated process?

    The rates we need to exclude are:
    -OTAs (Expedia, booking.com, airbnb)
    -AutoCamp Summit Club
    -AutoCamp Explorer Club
    -Any GRP rate

  11. Currently you can set "reservation assignment strategy" to manage how rooms are allocated to reservations (e.g. top down, bottom up etc.). This works well, except there are a couple of rooms that we would like to allocate as "last sell". i.e. all other rooms get allocated automatically according to the reservation assignment strategy, with the exception of certain room numbers, which would get allocated last if the hotel was to be fully occupied.

  14. Currently, you are not able to put the Space out of order form the Mews Housekeeping App. You are able to change the status from Dirty to Clean to Inspected to Out of Service but not Out of Order. We would like the ability to put rooms Out of Order with a reason from the Housekeeping App.

  15. It would be helpful to assign Housekeeping from a single space status screen versus room assignment screen. The drop down could show all available housekeeping and you could assign one or two directly onto this screen. Today, you have to use the assignment tool with has filters and is a bit awkward as you need to filter than assign a housekeeper then rooms. When you select and second housekeeper the same rooms show up as the first and you have to remember you have assigned them. Also, for some hotels, stayovers are assigned 20 minutes and full cleans are assigned…

  16. We have large flats with 3 rooms, equipped as follows s1iLiving room (not bookable independently).
    2 bedrooms (can be booked in combination with the living room as a small or large flat, or separately as 2 studios.
    Is it possible to add the living room so that it is not included in the count of total available rooms?
    In one of our existing houses, this means that instead of 124 rooms with 10 flats, we suddenly have 134 available rooms.
    For the cleaning report, it certainly makes sense to list all rooms. However, for all statistics, the data is distorted.

  19. Actually you can create a proforma invoice and print it as PDF, but it is not stored in Mews. So, if you like to find it weeks later, there is no chance. E.g. if you like to know on which guest you have created it.
