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.

  2. Right now the maximum people any space category can accomodate in Mews is 100 p. when you do the space category set up. Our restaurant can accomodate almost 300p.

    It would be great if the maximum could me increased for the bigger venues such as restaurant and meeting room

  3. Currently, policy exceptions (e.g., special rules for events or holidays) are evaluated based on the arrival date. As a result, exceptions do not apply when guests arrive before the event period begins – even if part of their stay falls within that period.

    Example: For New Year’s Eve we normally require a deposit. However, this deposit is not charged if the guest arrives before the New Year’s Eve policy exception begins, even though their stay includes the event dates.

    Improvement Proposal:
    Policy exceptions should not be based on the arrival date but should instead be evaluated using the stay dates.…

  4. It should be possible to edit the rate of an existing availability block. There are multiple reasons as to why a rate needs to be changed and deleting and remaking the whole block slows down work a lot.

  5. 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.

  6. I don't like the fact that when I delete a Space, it gets completely deleted. Reservations show "Unassigned" for "Assigned Space", and it can be no longer retrieved via the API.

    This basically breaks the referential integrity of the data, which is a rather serious issue. Such deletions should only be done as a soft delete - ie. the Space should be marked as deleted, and deletion date captured. It must no longer be assignable, but it should stay there so past reservations can still reference it.

    We have buildings where we add / remove spaces from time to time,…

  7. There is no place to restrict for example reservations with specific rate codes to check in from the kiosk. This means that people that should have been forced to check in from the front desk for example for a registration of some type of gift cards, validation of employees on employee rates etc can check in through the kiosk without any form of validation.

  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. Add dietary wishes in guest in house report. In this way accommodations who don't work with Mews POS can also make a kitchen report easily. Right now we have to do a lot of manual work.

  14. I was wondering if it would be possible to add the additional Revenue and product Revenue into the ADR. At the moment it is only calculating the ADR depending on the Revenue and not Total Revenue, creating therefore discrepancies with the actual ADR.

  15. We require a simplified, customizable Group Rooming List export template that is decoupled from the room assignment process. The list must be user-friendly, focus only on essential data, and utilize unambiguous visual grouping to indicate room sharing.

    The current workflow is highly inefficient due to two main issues:

    Workflow Constraint: It is currently mandatory to manually "pick up" or assign rooms to the group booking before the rooming list can be exported. This is cumbersome and risky, as staff must cancel/correct numerous room assignments if the list data (guest count or room allocation) turns out to be incorrect upon review.

  16. We require a centralized "Select All" function or similar mass-selection tool on the Company Billing overview screen. This should allow users to simultaneously select multiple, or all, pending reservations/invoices and automatically apply the "Choose all products" action before generating the final group invoice.

    When preparing a consolidated invoice for a company with numerous bookings (e.g., a conference with 50 rooms), we currently have to manually click into each separate reservation/invoice and select "Choose all products" before the charges can be moved over to the final group bill. This process is highly inefficient, time-consuming, and prone to user error.

  17. We require the ability to split the monetary amount (charge) of a single item or a total bill across multiple payment accounts or invoices. The current system only allows splitting products or payment transactions, not the value itself.

    The current lack of charge splitting creates three major invoicing issues:

    Shared Room Cost: It is impossible to split the cost of one room night (e.g., 1000 kr) equally between two guests (500 kr each) to generate individual receipts/invoices for their correct share.

    Custom Amount Allocation: We cannot assign specific, custom amounts from a single total (e.g., 2000 kr total) to different…

  18. We require a solution to accurately manage single room reservations where multiple guests (sharers) have varying arrival and departure dates within the booked period. The current system limits us to registering a static guest count for the entire stay, which results in inaccurate occupancy data and complex billing scenarios (especially concerning automated price codes like breakfast).

    Key Requirements (The Three Needs)
    To correctly support shared rooms with dynamic occupancy, the system must address the following three critical needs:

    Need 1: Shared Guest Linking
    The ability to link multiple individual guests ("sharers") to a single room reservation.

    Need 2: Critical Dynamic…

  19. The current behavior of search bar with Travel Agency contracts is misleading.
    In practice, we are being redirected from one property to another without being fully aware of it.
    Furthermore, when you have different properties, Travel Agency contracts will appear, without the possibility, unless one clicks on them, to understand which property each of them refers to.
    From our perspective, the expected behavior would be to display only the contract related to the property currently in use.
    Alternatively, if it should function in the same way as Companies, it should not be necessary to enter it separately for each individual…

  20. When using the “Reissue as open bill” function, Mews will re-issue the new invoice with the Legal Identifiers of the old bill, without checking whether any of the Legal Identifiers in the customer profile have been updated.

    So if the new bill is reissued because any of the Legal Identifiers in the old one were incorrect, they will be incorrect in the new one (unless manually overridden when reissuing the bill).

    But because the new invoice is issued on a new date, also Legal Ids should be the ones setup on that same new date.
