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. Ability to add attachments (photos/documents) to tasks. This is critical for Maintenance and Housekeeping operations as the assignee will be able to see exactly what/where the issue is. In addition, if this element is used for management to assign, track and review team tasks, the ability to add blueprints, schematics, schedules, etc. for maintenance is necessary.

  2. The ability for a customer to create one reservation with multiple room types in that single reservation. The guest that stays in a beach villa and then wants to move to an overwater bungalow for example. Having this as one single reservation.

  3. We need to be able to create multiple confirmations regarding, example: a confirmation for group reservations with other conditions than a reservation for only one room. This is a highly requested feature for the ability to send correct conditions regarding the reservations!

  4. We notice that, if we receive a booking by the Distributor, in wich the payer/booker is different from the guest, there is no credit card icon shown in the main screen (and also not on the reservation report). In this case, I think it would be more clear, if the credit card icon shows in the main reservation screen, next to the booker or next to the payment card line.

  5. If we already use the calendar events section in the property, it would really be most useful, to also show the number of an event in the calendar upon creating a new reservation. This would help to quickly explain our guests why there might be a higher rate or high demand for this period.

  6. The relevant department is currently not displayed in the task list within the reservation. So if I want to know who the task is written for, I have to open it individually.
    It would be nicer if there was a column for the department in the overview.

  7. We should be able to filter rate codes as expired to not take up space in the rate code screen, but activate them again if needed. This way the system can stay clean and tidy. Especially since you don't have a search feature.

  8. we need a reason - test. We run tests in demo and smoke tests in prod.
    Would be great if we can take out cancellation statistics by this reason, in case they were test bookings

  9. When you add a product to a reservation, you can enter a consumption time.
    If you work with shifts/meal times for instance, it would be nice to have the consumption time (hh:mm) in your product report.

  10. It would be good that there would be an extra column with a tick box to send emails straight from the Check-out report. Via this way a property can select multiple reservations to check-out and choose for the option to send the bill via email in the same screen (without going to the bill itself). The guest would then get checked-out, bill closed and sent to the guest at the same time without leaving the check-out report.

  11. When you put the mouse on a reservation it shows information which is not needed and doesn't show information which is useful.
    We know the arrival and departure and name and room number and type of room. I would like to see the number of guests, source of reservation (travel agent, Booking.com, Expedia.com...).
    Or maybe to have a choice on what information we can see.

  12. Reports contain a lot of information, which can sometimes be difficult to read through. In order to simplify and improve your report viewing experience, we could enable an excel-like sorting feature so that you can use headers on each column to organize the report data in ascending or descending orders.

  13. Add an extra column to the timeline to add certain importnat and rate / occupancy related events such as conventions, sport, concert, in-house. Column should be right under the dates.

  14. If we are placing a room OOO it would be great for the system to automatically move the future reservations overlapping without having to manually move each reservation manually.

  15. Availability blocks currently only allow the option to enter 1 specific rate for a block. Since we operate with different rates based on roomtypes, and a group often combines roomtypes, it would be great being able to select multiple rates.
    Also offering a group to book online with a discount based on public rates, it would be good to be able to offer them both a discounted flexible rate and a discounted non-refundable rate.

  16. Use case: Guest uses a specific voucher, when booking via the (Distributor) MEWS booking engine, which would trigger a task for reception staff (e.g. to prepare a welcome drink for the guest prior to the guest's arrival).

    Currently these tasks need to be created manually. This enhancement has the potential to save properties time, effecting an improved guest experience.

  17. Regarding reservation report and tasks assigned to reservations, it would be very helpful to show these tasks on the reservation report. Something similar to reservation notes which are shown on this report.

  18. To keep the rate query clean it would be great if ratecode that are closed or restricted are not visible in the rate query.

  19. The Timeline is such a great tool. We use it to have a first glance of what rooms are available in certain dates while we are helping guests booking reservations. I wish there was a way to see Room Blocks in the Timeline.

    Precious time is waisted trying to figure out why we cant book a reservation on certain days just by looking at the Time Line.

  20. When generating the reservation report using the parameters in the drop-down lists, why can't we tick several items (like it's possible for the segments), but for all ? e.g. room categories or rates or nationalities or countries etc ?
