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. Clients would benefit from the ability to assign or customize counters at the service level rather than just at the property level. Today’s setup only allows counters to be selected from a property‑wide dropdown, which introduces avoidable human error and operational inefficiencies.

    Problem

    • Counters are defined at the property level, meaning all services pull from the same shared list.
    • Staff must manually choose the correct counter from a dropdown when posting charges.
    • This manual selection is error‑prone, especially for properties with many outlets, departments, or revenue streams.
    • Incorrect counter selection leads to downstream reporting and accounting discrepancies that…

  2. We have quite some festivals in our area. To reduce the risk on parties in our hotel, I want to reduce the maximum room capacity to 2 guests for rooms which usually could host upto 5 persons.
    In my previous PMS we had rate plans per occupancy which we could close down.
    Can you create a restriction for this? Or in de occupancy report?

  4. Summary

    Provide hotels with a controlled way to correct closed bill items that were accidentally posted with a future consumption date, even though the item was actually consumed in the past and already charged on a guest bill.

    Problem

    In the “Add Product [+]” workflow, users occasionally select an incorrect future consumption date by mistake. When this happens:

    • The item is still closed on the bill at the correct amount and date of posting.
    • However, the consumption date remains in the future.
    • As a result, the item continues to appear on the Guest Ledger until that incorrect date becomes…

  5. Ons hoofdkantoor heeft besloten om een korting te gaan toepassen op een volledig samengesteld tarief – het skiteam tarief.
    De korting is 5% of 10% maar moet dan evenredig van het totaalbedrag afgetrokken worden, met bijbehorende BTW-tarieven.

    Als ik nu de korting handmatig bereken en onder het kopje logies afboek, dan heeft dit effect op onze ADR en logies-omzet, hoewel er ook een korting van F&B af moet. Graag zou ik naast een samengesteld tarief ook een samengestelde korting willen kunnen toepassen op een boeking.

  7. Being able to filter more in the system, instead of having to "sort by" or select each category one by one to get the information needed.
    For example, being able to select multiple rate codes/or guests with a specific cost when filtering in the booking report.
    Also being able to search by the guest name in the reservation report.

  9. Currently, a product like breakfast (€20) is fully assigned to a single revenue center (“Breakfast”).
    💡 Proposal: allow automatic allocation of revenue across multiple centers, either by fixed amount or percentage (e.g., €5 beverages + €15 food).
    This would provide more accurate reporting, a true analytical view, and reduce manual adjustments.

    Note: Breakfast is just an example. This approach could be applied to many products and services across Mews PMS, POS & EMS.

  10. The 'Rebate' function is currently causing issues in our customer communication and accounting. When a bill is rebated, we are unable to reissue it as an open bill, which is problematic for several reasons:

    Customer Experience: We often do not want to send a credit note or proof of a rebate to the customer—for example, if we are simply correcting an internal error or removing a product. Providing a new receipt showing a rebate is confusing and lacks logical UX.

    Integration with BookVisit: Our connectivity is dependent on being able to resend reservations to MEWS. If we accidentally close a…

  11. Chargebacks need to let the merchant have the ability to have Visa/Mastercard Arbitration Rights against the issuing Bank by the Card Member. This ability can be easily rectified if STRIPE would allow it. All other credit card processing companies allow the Merchant to have arbitration in the United States.

  12. Filter Options: Use the filter options to assign spaces based on criteria like space types, status, and floors. This helps in narrowing down the spaces visible to each housekeeper.
    Access Control: Unfortunately, the Mews Housekeeping App does not currently support restricting access based on working days or preventing the use of filter options entirely. Housekeepers can still see all spaces but can only update the status of those assigned to them.

  13. When I click on the Billing button, it currently opens the active bill rather than displaying all open bills. To view the remaining open bills, I then have to click on “All Guests’ Bills.”
    While this is not a major issue, it does add an extra step to the checkout process. If clicking the Billing button could instead display all open bills by default, it would help streamline the workflow and make the checkout process more efficient, seamless and remove that one 'extra click'

  14. The Idea

    Allow users to change the Assigned Space Category across different major categories (e.g., from Bed to Room) without forcing an update to the Requested Space Category.

    The Proposed Workflow

    When a user moves a reservation between space categories, Mews should trigger a simple confirmation window.

    The original button of "update requested category" should remain as it is, in case the user prefer to updated it.

    The system should not force the Requested Category to match the new Assignment.

    The Goal

    To preserve the original booking intent. This allows hotels to accurately track upgrade impact and the delta between…

  16. We need the ability to use the same e-mail for a different reservation. Why that isn't available is beyond me. We DO NOT want to use the "group" reservation option. We prefer that both reservations be totally separate.
    BUT for some reason MEWS does not allow an e-mail to be used more than once.

  17. With the updated (01/2026) Guest Ledger, there's improved visibility, but there's no pre-set filters. Would make life much easier.
    Also, no exports NOR scheduled reports available anymore.
    Please bring the function for exports and reports back.
    Thanks!

  18. Our rates are based on age. However, it's difficult to know the exact age of each person unless we go into each profile and calculate it individually. This is neither simple nor practical, for individuals nor groups.

    Would it be possible to display the age of each person, perhaps in parentheses, right after their name in the booking details? This would make it clearer for everyone.

  19. I believe Mews needs a dedicated "Fire Attention" feature to enhance guest safety during emergencies. The implementation would ideally include:

    Flagging System: A simple checkbox on both the Reservation and Guest Profile levels to mark "Fire Attention". If checked on the profile, it should remain a permanent attribute to ensure returning guests are always accounted for.

    Dashboard Integration: A new "Fire List" section under the "Guests In House" report.

    Report Functionality: This list must be accessible with a single click and organized by room number. It should clearly display:

    • Room number and guest count.

    • Guest names and age categories.

    • A…

  20. Have the option to link a guest, or add a line item in the profile, when the stay is with a group. We don't necessarily see these guests after their group stay and would allow us to keep our database tracked and either target these guests for conversion, or stop tracking in the database

    PS, we are ex-Hotello, and this feature was an easy sell for us to use before
