  1. Move the "Move selected items" button up to be next to "Move all items" button in billing. The placement of the button right now doesn't make any sense.

  3. Currently, once created, bookable services can never be deleted. If you create some by accident you then have to live with them as they take up valuable up display real-estate (and increase the time it takes to figure out what to click on).

    Please introduce the option to delete those (either from the property or from the support level).

    Hello, we are happy to inform you we have enabled service deletion in Mews.

    Bookable services can be now deleted if there is no space category or space feature or reservation linked to them.

  4. Dear colleagues,

    At this moment we can assign employees to the room but we can not cancel, it is only possible to override.

    It generous few problems:
    - in the next day room is still assigned to the same employee, a filter of the unassigned room is useless
    - everyday assignments must be made very carefully, checking when the room has been assigned, yesterday or today
    - it is not possible to make a report of an assigned room from the past, the system shows the only current assigned

    Please take into consideration the following changes:
    - cancel assignment -…

  5. at the moment when one guest has multiple bookings (i.e. coming for one day every week), the bill at the top of the screen is the one with the furthest arrival date.
    that doesn't make sense.
    the most recent date should be at the top and those days further in the future at the bottom of the screen.
    it is too easy to make mistakes now with creating invoices or taking payments for the wrong date / week / stay

  6. For paymaster accounts we organize the receivable invoices per month or prepare a group of bill for a special wire transfer amount. Having the option of renaming a bill preview will be very useful when we transfer a receivable invoice from a customer profile to the paymaster account. We won't confuse about the right bill preview to transfer anymore.

  8. Registration cards in the US legal environment are in the wrong format: DD/MM/YYYY.
    The correct format according to the local standard should be MM/DD/YYYY.

  9. Display future reservations on the dashboard in the reservations block. Currently you have to run a report choosing the booking date to find the next reservation. It would be very helpful to see who's coming next, even if it's in a few days.

  10. every time you complete a task, the filters disappear / clear. that has never happened before and is rather annoying to be honest. it is a waste of time having to (re)set them after each action.

  11. The new billing feature is awful. it is not easy to read or negotiate at all.

    I can see that a lot of people feel the same and Mews resistance to change this back. Please listen to your users. I do not see how this new features improves anything at all.

    If a guest has a lot of bookings coming up it is even worse.

    Hello Maria,

    Thank you for sharing your feedback with us.

    Since you shared your comments with us 2 months ago we have been working continuously to improve the new billing screen in order to ensure that it not only meets the standards of the old billing screen, but opens up the opportunity to begin surpassing the functionality feature set of the old billing screen.

    We have split the billing screen into 2 views. A group view accessible by selecting the “Billing” tab on the top right had side of the reservation screen and an individual view accessible by selecting the billing icon next to a guests name, or by selecting “all guest bills” from the group billing screen.

    The group billing screen gives you an overview of all reservations and companions within a group for the current stay period. Whereas the individual billing screen will show you all bill items…

  12. Please remove the option to charge the customer card against all items under Unassigned.
    This is causing operational problems, because is much easier to charge fully for current and future stays all together by mistake or while in a rush. The only way to prevent wrong charging is to manually move the charges to a New Bill.
    This is a technical disadvantage.

    Old billings screen was able to prevent this as products for future reservations were kept on the left hand side. There was no option to collect payment against them.

  13. The billing has changed and a lot of colleagues get confused using this new billing method. It is harder to see the companions on the same room when 2 guest are travelling together in one room. Sometimes the charges from F&B are booked on 2 different names in the same reservation. This can be easily forgotten on check out when very busy.
    The room number is also not visible in the billing. It would be nice to see a name and roomnumber. (sometimes there are 2 bookings under the same name)

    We would love to change back to the old…

    Hello,

    Thank you for your comments and feedback regarding the billing screen.

    We have released an update resolving issues where the room names and room numbers were missing from the billing screen.

    The new billing screen has 2 main views, group billing and individual billing.

    From the group billing screen, you will be able to view a list of all bill items for reservation owners and companions. The group billing screen can be accessed from the billing tab on the top right hand side of the reservations screen.

    The group billing screen shows all bill items for a group for the current stay period. Whereas as the individual billing screen (which can be accessed by selecting the billing icon next to a guests name), will show you all bill items from current, previous and future reservations.

    To learn more about the new group billing screen, please click on the link…

  14. In Manager Analytics when selecting a specific Space Category type, the occupancy percentage will be shown based on the total number of rooms within this category only.

    Is it possible to implement a way to see the occupancy of the selected category based on the total number of rooms in the property?

    This is useful for hotels to calculate the RevPar afterward.
    Thank you!

    Hello from the Mews product team.

    We have released an update for getting insights per space categories. Please check out our release notes – https://releases.mews.com.

    With that release, we have adjusted the behaviour to match your request.

    Thank you again for sharing your idea!

  15. In case of group bookings, would it be possible to select several rooms which have the space category to move them to another space category instead of doing one by one?

  16. These filter does not provide enough detail to inform you where your guest's are arriving from.
    It would be very helpful to have the Reservation Report include the City and Country details for the guest. Where the guests are from can often be a conversation starter for the front desk staff, especially if they have travel experience/knowledge.
    Also, at this time of COVID, it is also helpful to know if the guest is from a locked down or red zone area.
    Suggestion: Have the City and Country fields from the Customer Profile display on the Reservation Report.

    Hello from the Mews product team,


    We are so pleased to let you know that your feature request partially exists. If you export Reservation report, you will be able to see country. Also, Customer statistics report can be grouped by nationality in Mews directly.

    As per the city, this request has not received the necessary upvotes to be added to the Mews development roadmap and is unlikely to be delivered.


    Thank you again for sharing your idea!


    Kind regards,

    The Mews Team

  17. I don't mind the new billing screen, once you get used to it, it is quite easy to use.
    One thing I would suggest is that in the new billing screen, we move a lot of items to Paymasters and we now can't see which item belongs to which guest

    It used to show as:
    Stay 1129 (Jane Smith, 1/12/2020-2/12/2020, Standard Room, 16) - $150

    Now shows as:
    Past, 1/12/2020-2/12/2020 - 1129 x1 - $150

    Hello Madelaine,

    We apologies for the delayed response. However, we are happy to inform you that the functionality that you requested has been released.

    You are currently able to see the name of a the original guest who owned a bill before it was moved to a paymaster account.

    We hope this update will be helpful for your day to day tasks.

    Kind regards,
    Aldair

    Hello Mewsers,


    Thank you for sharing your feedback with us.


    We are very happy to inform you that Mews does not allow you to check a new guest in before the previous reservation was checked out.

  19. It would be great to have overview of „negative“ pick-Ups, so cancellations in the Pick Up Analytics tool. Even on the Dashboard, so you have a perfect overview of positive (bookings) and negative (cancellation) pick ups. As a reference: Pace is doing it in their pick up report

  20. We´ve found this link informing that the NIF is mandatory for bill above 400EUR in Spain, but to use this situation the Bill should have two different templates and would turn more complicated for daily operations.
    https://help.mews.com/en/articles/4430685-closing-a-bill-above-400-eur-for-spanish-customers

    The request is to have a “Big Warning” when the operator tries to generate a Bill with an empty NIF. So the operator can intentionally decide if it is really desired to generate a Bill without NIF and avoid human error missing the NIF, because by default the NIF is empty even when the user fields are already filled by the system.
    Thanks
