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 billing. 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. would it be possible to make the room number guests are allocated to or have stayed in more prominent on the overview and dashboard.
    also, it is very annoying you are not able to see the full name. perhaps move the three icons on the right corner further down?
    thanks

  2. Being able to have multiple UserTypes and UserGroups would allow us to add common doors on rooms that require it. Right now only one of each is allowed per key cutter resulting in guests needing assistance to check in vs kiosk

  3. When we receive bookings from destination management companies, the original source of the bookings often come from travel agents before they are sent to a destination mangement company and finally the PMS. In Mews, we are only able to view a single travel agency which means that we can only see the name of the destination management company; we are not able to see the name of the travel agencies that made the original bookings.

    We would like our sales and marketing teams to have insights on the travel agencies that are making reservations.

  6. Action log of the reservations should also include a date/time when guest modified their marketing preferences (accepting or not to receive marketing emails).

  7. sometimes you need to alert more than one department and/or people of the same task.
    would be handy if you had the opportunity to chose more than one department for the task, or be able to copy it, rather than having to type it all again.

  8. It would be great if you had the option to not only update a task when opening it, but also to close it from that same window. Now you need to update it, close the task and then only are you able to complete it from the list (task list or within the reservation).
    would save time if you had that close button within the task (so both update and complete/close)

  9. The Rooming List can be used to add numerous reservations in one go. One of the necessities of this type of import is to be able to calibrate the reservations in one go also. Thus, if the client chooses that all the persons in the group need to pay their extra by themselves, then the Cashlist internals function needs to be ticked the same amount of times in Commander.

    Allow the Rooming List to also populate certain internals directly into the reservations/profiles in order to populate the information in one go.

  11. it would be good if certain words or phrases could be highlighted in a task or made to bold font so that it stands out in the message.
    Especially important as tasks can not be linked to an arrival or departure date or set up as a recurring task (i.e. every week on a monday)

  12. Would it not be easier to be able to set up a new travel agents without having to create a new company first.
    also, the routing rules should be part of the company and travel agent set up and not another unrelated action.
    this is causing way too much work and should be able to be simplified

  14. I would love to see a standalone version of mews that doesn't run on a browser.

    This would have two key benefits:

    • much faster loading times. We suffer from incredibly slow operating speeds all through mews, every time we press a button it has to spend time loading, which in cue means customers have to wait longer. creating terrible customer experience.

    • ability to have an offline mode. We also suffer not only from occasional mews outages, due to slow/unresponsive actions - but also bad internet where we are, which can often be very temperamental and drop out often during adverse…

  15. Currently the favicons in the browser tabs look the same for these two sites, which makes navigating between multiple tabs longer than it should (say you have 2 help pages open and 2 MEWS tabs - jumping between them can be tedious since the tab (fav)icons are the same.

  17. Configuration setting which allows us to Swop number of adults in reservation screen van low to high.
    By default its set to highest number of users, while our business services predominantly 1 persons in dorm types.
    We notice many wrong bookings are made, since its set by default on 1.

    Could we please get a choice on whether we display 1 adult before 2 adults.

  18. THE THINGS ARE WAY COMPLICATED WHEN WE TRY TO DEAL IT BY OUR SELF...

    MAKE A LAYMAN LANGUAGE TO EXPLAIN THE THINGS AS NOT ALL OF THE REPRESENTATIVE ARE INTO THE MODERN SYSTEM....

    KEEP THE NOTES WHERE A FRONT DESK DOES NOT HAVE AN ACCESS TO IT SO THAT WE KNOW ITS GONNA BE HANDLE BY THE MANAGER..

    IT SIMPLY DOES NOT SHOW ANYTHING IF WE DO NOT HAVE THE ACCESS TO IT?? IT MAKES MORE CONFUSING....

  19. it would be good if you could update a task and re-instate it once closed. sometimes tasks have been closed but become relevant again at a later date and this would prevent having to create a new one, plus with updating the task description you have a better overview and history of what has happened with that particular booking in one click.
