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 I want to make a room change, I can't if we are full!! That doesn't make sense at all.

    Hello from the Mews Product team,

    Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. 

    Based on your feedback, would you be able to confirm with us if you are attempting to split a reservation or move a reservation to another space when your hotel is full?

    Kind regards,

    Aldair

  2. When creating a reservation the option "In Person" is too limited for us. We have quite a high number of reservations that are made at the desk for a future stay. Therefore we cannot see the difference between reservations made in advance and "Walk-Ins".

    Here an extra option: Walk-In would provide extra reporting and analysis opportunities.

  3. One should be able to insert in the configuration the lowest rate to be typed when updating rates (BAR) so that no typing error can be made (for instance 9 instead of 99).

  4. It would be nice if you could write a comment for the team on open invoices in the settlement window, or if you could "lock" the invoice for other colleagues to edit.

    This can be very helpful, for example, if you Have to consult with the customer regarding the invoice and want to mark this so that someone else does not write to the customer again.

  5. I would like the ability to Restrict Distributor (Mews online bookings), so the only way a reservation can be made is by a Mews user. I have my channel rates set-up in Rate Groups and am able to restrict my external channels as needed. However, the only way I can Restrict Distributor is by applying it to the whole house, which isn't always necessary or desired.

  6. When you have regular or returing guests it is very unconvenient and unwelcoming that the automatic settlement failure emails are automattically send to the guest, even if the card is on file. Guests do not want to endlesy update theire details again and again and again as they are expecting that after a couple of stays everything is fine for them.

    Solution: allow the Mews Merchant to charge the card linked to the guest and not linked to the reservation.

  7. To improve the speed of room assignment by housekeeper, it would be good to have the ability to drag and drop specific rooms under each housekeeper on a daily basis similar to what we do with Timeline. You could quickly see which rooms are unassigned and drag the room under each housekeeper to complete their board for the day. If room credits are used, each room that is dragged under a housekeeper deducts from the total credits assigned for the day.

  10. Allow for a 'rate cap' or 'maximum threshold' for space categories that are derived by a percentage increase off the base rate.

    For example: a space category that decreases 20% off base rate would not be allowed to reach below $.xx or above $.xx

  11. Sometimes the POS is not able to push outlet revenue to the PMS (for technical reasons). It would be nice if it was possible to manually input revenue in the Mews outlet section in order to correct the missing revenue.

  13. In the billing screen, please allow user to tick the item to correct/adjust and foresee and foresee and adjust/partial adjust button to do the correction in same screen.

    Eg: a beer of €5 appears on invoice but was wrongly posted. Now, we need to go to add product, select the correct service (F&B 21%) and book negative amount.

    This is not seamless and from experience, as operator needs to manually select in which service to adjust.

    I see that the service or product selected for the adjustment is not always the same as the service/product that was initially posted. Eg.…

  14. Currently when a guest arrives early or leaves late, the hotels decide whether to charge such a guest extra money for the additional time spent in the room. Most properties set up special products for early CI / late CO. These products can be then posted to the bill by the receptionist. This, however, requires additional manual work.

    Early check-ins and late checkouts might be charged automatically.

    The automation could be potentially built through new product rules - if a guest spends extra time in the room thanks to early CI / late CO, specific products would be posted to…

  15. Use case:

    Rate group is prepaid with settlement trigger at confirmation. If settlement fails then booking is canceled with the reason: payment failed.

  16. -Make the line between bills thicker and/or more pronounced. It could be so much more clear which bill is which.
    -Add a bill icon to the card that enters right of the screen when you click on a reservation from the timeline. If they are small Icons and ALMOST everywhere, it's odd to have them missing in some places.
    -A dog Icon, so we can see from the timeline which guests have dogs so we know where they can be moved (dog friendly suites)

  17. Would it not be easier to be able to set up a new travel agents without having to create a new company first.
    also, the routing rules should be part of the company and travel agent set up and not another unrelated action.
    this is causing way too much work and should be able to be simplified

  18. if you now want to see if a company or travel agents has routing rules, you need to filter one at the time. would be so much easier if you list them alphabetically and not in the order when they were created

  19. in the old billing screen, when you had created an invoice, it was immediately visible on the unassigned left side.
    now with the new billing, it "disappears" and you have to click out to say the payment tab to go back in to the billing tab before you can see the created invoice and move it to the Pay Master.
    this is creating additional unnecessary work!

    Hi Simone,

    Thank you for bringing this to our attention, we will look into resolving this extra step for the new billing screen.

  20. It would be necessary to have commander only rates which can be used by our receptionist only, that do not have any restrictions on it. Sometimes it is ok to sell one room of a category for maybe just one night at a certain time, but not the whole category. Also we offer our returner guests the possibilty to book their next vacation - same time - next year when they leave, but we do not sell it to any other person - not online, not at the OTA´s and not in person at the desk. Due to the setup…
