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. Would be great to be able to apply the same restriction for the same rates on multiple dates, rather than having to come back and enter the same filters over and over!

  2. Other ways (besides via products) to create an add-on (enhance your feature) applicable only for specific rates instead of all rates?

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  7. 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.

  8. 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.

  9. 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.

  10. 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…

  11. 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…

  12. 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…

  13. 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.

  14. It should be possible for a task to be created automatically if there is an outstanding balance in a reservation one day after departure.
    At the moment, it is only possible to create a control task. However, this task is also created if the balance is 0 one day after departure. Mews should first perform a check and then create a task only if the balance is not 0.

  15. We would really appreciate having the option for parking to be automatically marked as “checked-in” once the guest checks into their room and also automatically adding the parking booked on the bill to the timeline of Parking Service.

    Currently, having to switch between services to manually check in the parking is inconvenient and time-consuming, especially during busy check-in times. Automating this step would greatly improve front desk efficiency.

    Additionally, it would be very helpful to have a “parking” icon displayed in the guest profile, so we can quickly see who has a parking spot.

    It would also be useful to…

  16. Currently, it is possible to send invoice reminders on demand and manually via the bill/invoice itself or via the City Ledger.

    (1) It would be nice to have repeated (and automated) reminders in different stages of the aging process, and
    (2) also create an easier way to add a surcharge (if needed) on overdue invoices;
    (3) Alert the responsible personnel/Mews User of the reminders not actioned.

  17. We would like more granular control over billing automation.
    Currently, the system allows certain items to be moved automatically to other profiles or bills, which is helpful, but not sufficient for our operational needs.

    We are requesting the ability to:

    Select specific nights of a reservation and automatically route those charges to a different profile or bill.

    Select specific items (e.g., certain rate components or extras) to be billed to a separate profile or folio.

    This workflow exists in systems like Opera and OneQ (commonly used in Hilton hotels), where items can be assigned as:

    PM (Paymaster) – charges routed…

  18. MEWS is very often asking for Feedback in a small window and asks how likely it is, that I would recommend MEWS regarding to the action I just took.
    I really love MEWS, and like to involve and help.
    I always have to either rate or cancel this window, and if a couple of tasks is going on, or more than one customer is before me, my workflow is really disturbed. It would be lovely if you'd ask not so often or in another way.
    I know it is not really a idea, but I wanted to offer other Mewsers…

  19. It would be very helpful if a percentage could be stored in the price hierarchy to specify the price difference between room types.

    When we merged two room types, the occupancy rate of the subordinate room category stopped being displayed, and it became impossible to adjust prices individually or override the price hierarchy.

    Therefore, we reversed the merger.

    An easy way could be to work with fixed percentages in the price hierarchy.

  20. Wenn Gäste online buchen & Zahlen, wird eine Rechnung (Rechnungsnummer X) erstellt. Wenn der Gast dann eincheckt, wird nach Rechnungsstellung eine "Zahlung" erstellt mit einer neuen Rechnungsnummer. Dadurch gibt es extrem viele Rechnungsnummern, was es für die Finanzbuchhaltung sehr unübersichtlich macht. Kann man Rechnungen / Anzahlungen & Zahlungen sinnvoll kennzeichnen? Können Gutschriften dementsprechend als "Gutschrift" gekennzeichnet werden.
