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 amazing if an invoice cannot be made if and when the billing details are not completed in the company profile. Now the employee from reservations already grants the 'invoiceable' privilage to a company so that the receptionist know they dont have to take deposit payment at check-in. however at check-out it is still required to complete the billing details, but then the invoice is already closed (as it is possible) and as it is not correctly checked, only with the invoicing check (sometimes days later) it is found that the billing details are missing.

  2. When creating products you can only select one category. Which means when creating routing rules. You have to create a product for each ratecode each time. Which will create an unnecessary long product list. Please create a drop down menu where you give the option to select multiple categories.

  3. could you please make it a default setting that every company is invoiceable and we should only tick in case they are not.

    also, put a generic invoice due interval in the property main settings so that it defaults to this period and only if you wish to change it from the standard setting should you have to amend it in the company setting.

    thanks

  4. There are often double charges (merchant is selected, when payment has already been done with terminal). I would therefor like to see a WARNING/NOTIFICATION when you select merchant (e.g. are you sure you would like to charge the creditcard by Merchant / Are you sure that guest has not yet paid with terminal). If you select payment by card, you are automatically on the merchant tab, can it not be default terminal tab ? This to avoid double payments and chargeback issues. Thanks !

  5. When adding a Stay Product in the Items Tab in a Reservation the Product is automatically posted to the Unpaid / Deposit Bill. In the case of a Company or Travel Agent Bill, we need to have the ability to add these items into the correct Bill. Currently, the user needs to move the items when added to the correct Bill. In the case of an Additional Product posting, this can be added in the Billing Screen on the correct Bill. However, when adding Stay Product, there is no choice.

    If the company or travel agent has routing already configured,…

  6. i have set up new products with a zero rate as we need to be able to manual add the correct one each time. however, when coming to posting the product, it won't let us change the amount from zero.
    is this an error on the system?
    previously set products like this are still able to be manually have the amount changed

  7. When using MEWS to manage a small F&B outlet via Services/Products, it would be nice to be able to link a small POS slip printer e.g. Epson TMT-20, to issue guests a cash invoice for the service if requested that is not on A4.

  8. At the moment, it can be hard to tell if an invoice has been emailed to the client or not. can the email button be turned red or something to show if the email has been sent.

  9. I would like to be able to easily identify the costs of the items I have selected in the billing screen so that I don't spend time calculating whilst my guests wait for the bill to be closed.

    It would also be helpful when calculating the amount due and managing deposits..

  10. Why do I get to group billing first when clicking on billing on a specific booking from the reservation overview? It´s good that group billing is an option but I should be taken to the guest bill first and have the option to go to the group bill second.

  11. Would it be feasible to haven an option to exclude companies in the Bills & Invoices overview? You could have in addition to the search option an additional field with all the possible companies where you could deselect the companies who you know have already settled the bill, but that is not yet booked to system? For us for example Booking.com transfers the payment beginning of the month so these open bills are not really interested on our day-to-day accounting.

  12. Notre balance des tiers, avec la fermeture et les annulations est surchargée en encours négatifs.
    Nous avons vu ensemble que dès lors que nous avons une annulation, le chiffre d’affaire annulation tardif se poste automatiquement sans que nous ne puissions rien faire.
    Est-il possible dans ce cas de faire en sorte de filtrer dans la balance, les encours négatifs et positifs ?
    Le but étant de montrer à l’utilisateur directement ce qu’il souhaite voir, donc de rajouter le filtre dans les options sur le côté.

  13. In some properties, invoices should only be issued to companies/TA's that have been approved by headoffice (as its risky to issue invoices to some companies, who have a bad payment track record).

    Currently we have a right "issue invoices", but this does not take into account whether that account is able to be posted against, and will allow users to close any invoice against that company, creating a risk that clients will not pay their invoices. This is quite common in our industry.

  15. Currently on the bill, when you bill as package the count will show "1x the total amount" of the product or service.
    This count should show breakdown of the fees and then in the total column there should be the total amount.
    ie. 1x100€ + 1x120€ + 1x100€ in the count and 320€ in the total.

  17. We see that items on bill 13947 are ordered in a way that we don’t understand. Can you provide some clarification on this? Property wants to order items by date. Since the date sorting in the billing screen is not in order, the bill cannot be printed in date order.

    The issue occurs when bills are imported from Lightspeed, I think? I am not entirely sure on this but it seems to be the case.

    AFAIK we don’t have any ordering on bill items level.
    Therefore this is a feature request

  18. At the moment, the invoice disappears under the billing tab for the guest reservation when you transfer it to another customer card/group.
    This means that you need to go to the items-tab under the reservation and from there go to the bill that the cost is on.
    When there are larger invoices that need to be reviewed and moved around, you need to use CTRL+F, which doesn't really work the majority of the time.

    It would have been smoother if it was possible to see the cost on the guest's reservation even if it is not the bill associate.

  20. In order to better manage / reconcile: External Payments (domestic payment cards/cc, e.g.) and Commissions Payable - flexibility to set 'Automatically Create an Accounts Receivable entry' would add value to Accounting teams worldwide.
