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. If a company requests a specic reference on an invoice, for exampl: "Märkning: EFD2026". Easiest is to type it in under purchase order number so we do not forget when creating the invoice. Instead of unique identifier which can only be used when the bill is beting closed.
    But it would be great if we could type in different purchase order numbers for different reservations and it will be displayed on the bill even if it is one total bill for several reservations.

  2. I would like a confirmation for packages without mentioning all products from the reservation. These products are set as “Bill as package” anyway and are not shown separately on the guest's bill either. Just mentioning the rate name and total amount on the confirmation would be sufficient. Perhaps with the extension of the textual content of the package.

  5. We really appreciate if there will be possibility to specify age categories to two decimal places (e.g. babies 0-2.99, childrens 3-11.99). These logic is used by lots of OTA´s and we would like to set up our WBE by the same principal to be able to offer the same prices to our guest.

  6. Bulk select multiple reservations in a group and move them altogether in one movement from one series of spaces to another. At this stage, we have to individually select each reservation to change the space, which can take time for large groups.

  7. It would be great if we could label the bookings individually and make sure that this is everywhere visible.
    Example: Speakers from the seminar
    We make do with the top management classification in the guest profile, but even this is not obvious everywhere.
    I expect to see this information in the booking overview of a group, for example, without having to expand the reservation. And it must be visible in the timeline.
    In addition, this is a classification that does not belong to the guest profile, but to the individual room reservation. After all, the speaker could arrive later as…

  8. We would like to request enhancements to the Group Billing rebate process to make it easier and more efficient for users to manage rebated items.

    Today, when a merged bill is rebated, all rebated items automatically return to their original owners. This creates significant challenges for users who must manually locate each item—especially when they were originally spread across multiple guests or companies. This process is time‑consuming, inefficient, and prone to human error.

    To improve this workflow, we are requesting the following:

    (1) Manual Rebate (User‑Initiated):
    Add a toggle/select option in the rebate window that allows users to choose whether…

  9. When you click on the beginning date for blocked space - the calendar should automatically go to that date - instead you have to click on the calendar again to find the month/date example: the calendar automatically defaults to today's date - you have to tab thru the calendar for the date you want - then it should automatically show future dates for the end date, but it reverts back to today's date for the too. Would be nice if blocking house space worked the same way as booking a reservation - you would click on the date & space…

  11. Currently, the system allows a "Confirmed" block to be released unless the "Do not release" toggle is manually selected. This redundancy creates a high risk of manual error, which has recently resulted in an accidental overbooking.

    Suppose when we click "Confirmed", it's confirmed and the block should automatically change to "Do not release". Otherwise, it makes the process more complicated and increases the chance of errors.

  12. Visual Confirmation When Custom Billing Automation Is Triggered

    Summary

    Users need a clear, on‑screen confirmation when a custom billing automation has successfully triggered - for all types of reservation updates. This provides reassurance that the automation executed as expected and helps prevent duplicate attempts or unnecessary troubleshooting.


    Problem Statement

    Currently, when a custom billing automation runs, users do not **Always receive any immediate visual confirmation within the UI.

    Because of this:

    • Users may assume the automation did not run.
    • They may re-attempt to trigger the same billing automation, leading to duplicate actions.
    • They may begin troubleshooting or modifying settings unnecessarily.

  13. Dear MEWS Team,

    I would like to share a suggestion regarding the Timeline view, which has a huge yet unexpressed potential.

    While visually clean, it does not leverage one of the most powerful tools for operational efficiency: colour-coding.

    Color can instantly convey information that, otherwise, requires opening each booking or navigating multiple sections. Introducing colour indicators directly on the Timeline could transform it into a true operational dashboard, providing immediate, high-impact insights for the front office and reservations teams.

    Here are some examples of what colour-coding could highlight:
    • Payment Status (e.g., prepaid, pending, partially paid, failed)
    • Booking Source…

  14. Whenever you create a block, Mews makes a "virtual rate code" for the group block. This becomes a nightmare when collecting rate code data from Mews API. Especially when ONLY American English is auto-generated for short name. Default language is based on user, not property so if one user has something else than American English, then the rate code name in database becomes blank. it should auto generate in american english short name no matter what language user uses.

  15. Currently, the cancellation tag in the MEWS booking engine is not flexible enough.

    The logic is fixed on the system side:

    Cancellation on the day of arrival = automatically 2:00 p.m. or defined check-in time.

    Cancellation X days before arrival = automatically 12:00 a.m.

    Individual cancellation times cannot be displayed. Rates such as “cancellable until 6:00 p.m. on the day of arrival” or “14 days before arrival until 2:00 p.m.” cannot be displayed correctly.

    A manual adjustment of the time per rate in the cancellation tag would be necessary in order to display the cancellation conditions correctly and transparently.

  16. We see the need for being able to set accounting categories as inactive. As for today, they must be marked as "do not use" or similar to avoid linking them to products etc. This causes issues for the ERP systems.

    We can't delete these categories entirely because they may be linked to past transactions and need to be kept for auditing and historical purposes.

  18. Description
    When adjusting a reservation’s arrival or departure date or time, the existing room lock is currently removed. This creates a risk that the lock is forgotten and the room is unintentionally reassigned, which leads to operational issues for the front desk and reservations teams.

    Feature request
    Please ensure that when arrival or departure dates or times are changed, the existing room lock on the space is retained automatically. This would remove the need for staff to manually remember to reapply the lock and reduce errors in daily operations.

    Why this matters
    • Prevents accidental room changes
    • Reduces manual…

  19. It would be useful if you could also see the address when merging the companies and travel agencies. Often there are branches that only differ in their address. This is not apparent from the current comparison.

    Ideally, I could also decide right here whether the address should be transferred. This would avoid the subsequent deletion action because both addresses are currently transferred.

  20. When using the calendar view and adding a restriction, after saving, you are automatically redirected to the list of restrictions, which means leaving the calendar view. Therefore, after each addition, you need to go back to the calendar and reapply the filters to display the desired dates.

    I considered the solution of opening two windows—one to keep the calendar view open and the other to create restrictions. However, this does not solve the problem: when a restriction is created in one window, the other window needs to be refreshed to display it, and this refresh resets the filters and returns…
