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. Op dit moment kunnen producten in de boekingsmodule alleen toegevoegd worden door de gast, op de wijze waarop het product toegevoegd is in Mews operations. Dat betekent wanneer in Mews operations aangegeven staat dat het product 'eenmalig' geboekt wordt, de gast deze niet vaker dan een keer kan bijboeken in de boekingsmodule. Dat is jammer van de omzet en levert herwerk op: de meeste gasten komen met z'n tweeën en willen het product dan vaker dan een keer toevoegen.

  2. Allow for multiple versions of the same parent space/room linked with different combinations of child rooms.

    For example, create Villa 1 with (101 as the parent) and 102, 103 and 104 as the children, but we also want to create Villa 1 connector (with 101 as the parent and only 102 as the connecting suite).

  3. Would be great if you can block same amount of rooms for the entire block each day rather than having to type in amount of rooms for each day.

  4. It is not currently possible in Mews to configure the system so that guest profiles automatically reflect any outstanding balance from their associated company profile—for example, by showing an alert or open amount in the guest profile whenever the company has unpaid invoices. There is no built-in, automated sync that shows company-level debts or outstanding balances at the guest profile level in the current version of Mews.
    Here are the main points:
    • Company profiles and guest profiles are distinct entities in Mews. When a guest is linked to a company (for instance, for billing purposes), the outstanding balances or…

  5. 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.

  6. The guest can check in at kiosk even if the balance is 1.000 DKK - due routing rule. Company has a) guest who always get sent a bill to company and b) guest who needs to pay themselves at the hotel. The host gets the room amount back to guest profile from company, but the kiosk do not ask the guest to pay. So the guest check in and out without paying.
    Here: The kiosk should see the balance for asking payment.

  7. Often we require the guests address for statistics or police reporting purposes. It would be great if guest address would be part of the rooming list to bulk upload those addresses.

  8. All governmental and municipality has EAN numbers in Denmark for billing.
    We are setting the EAN number in billing code.
    We would like to search the company with EAN number - quick and easy.

  9. We are a small property, and thus our members have several different jobs. We would like some of our staff to be able to view customer info, or view the timeline, without necessarily having access to "creating or managing" customers and companies. Viewing the information (especially the ability to see the timeline) should be separate from the ability to add or modify anything

  11. When we changed the tab under stay- Responsibility-Notify responsible employee about and removed Commander from that we stopped getting notifications when we get a cancellation from booking. We removed it because we didnt want to get emails after every booking we make in mews, is there some way so we can get the reservations notifications regarding the cancellations or it automatically always affect both ?

  12. For properties that have connected their key software with Mews PMS, add a "read key" button to the departures list to find reservations quicker for check-out. Less typing or scanning through a long list...

    Maybe even add that button above the timeline. That way we could just put the guest's key on the card reader, click the button and instantly know exactly which room/ bed they are in.

  13. Hinsichtlich verschiedener Mehrwertsteuersätze sollte es möglich sein, 1 "Oberprodukt" aus mehreren "Unterprodukten" zusammensetzen zu können, da sonst alles einzeln manuell gebucht werden müsste, wenn man keine gesonderte Paketrate dazu erstellt. Beim Online-Check in ist bei einer erneuten Mehrwertsteueränderung keine nachträgliche z.B. Frühstücksbuchung bei Room Only Raten möglich.

  15. Currently, The Space Status Report refers to Stayovers as "Any booking that is staying overnight and has neither arrived that day nor departed that day."

    If the user does not know to include "Arriving/Arrived" filter, they can miss many arrivals that checked in after midnight (especially if their arrival was expected at 3 PM the previous day). This therefore opens up the hotel to possible mistakes.

    It would be nice to simplify the logic to reduce some of the work on the Operations Team. If the unit checked in is staying over - regardless of arrival -they should be listed…

  16. 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.

  18. Il arrive très souvent que les clients se présentent au check in seuls alors que la réservation était faite pour 2 personnes ou que la répartition du nombre de personnes (adultes, ados, enfants, bébés) ait besoin d'être modifiée. Il y a au moins systématiquement les taxes de séjour en produits réservables additionnels ainsi que des petits-déjeuners packagés (avec des tarifs différents selon l'âge des occupants) si le tarif est BB. On voudrait avoir plus d'options pour notamment pouvoir "conserver l'ancien prix de l'hébergement" et non pas "conserver l'ancien prix" comme actuellement qui est en fait le prix total hébergement +…

  19. 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.

  20. Currently if a use attempts to set an early arrival for a booking (especially Availability Block group) the early Check-In time is rejected because the block is missing the necessary adjustments. In other words, the system cannot consider early check-in due to conflict with the occupancy time established in the stay settings.

    However, this is an avenue for additional income and also for personalized service - clients often find themselves without many options when it comes to that.

    On top of the possibility to create "Early C/I products", there should also be a button that could facilitate an earlier check-in…
