Add reporting for future group blocks (including non-picked-up rooms)
We would like to suggest an important improvement regarding group reporting and forecast accuracy.
Currently, Mews only considers picked-up (confirmed) reservations within groups when calculating revenue and ADR. However, blocked rooms that are not yet picked up are completely excluded from revenue and ADR calculations, even though they are included in occupancy.
This creates a significant discrepancy in forecasting and reporting.
Example:
A group is booked for a future date with 20 rooms blocked at an ADR of $200
No rooms are picked up yet
One individual reservation exists at an ADR of $250
In this scenario:
Occupancy correctly reflects 21 rooms
Revenue only reflects the $250 individual booking
ADR is calculated as $250 / 21 rooms, which results in an inaccurate and misleading ADR
This does not reflect the true business on the books, as the group block represents a strong revenue commitment and pricing structure.
What we need:
A report (or option within existing reports) that:
Includes blocked group rooms in future projections
Applies the group ADR (or expected revenue) to those blocked rooms
Provides a more accurate view of:
Forecasted revenue
Forecasted ADR
Business on the books
Why this matters:
Improves revenue forecasting accuracy
Reflects real sales performance from the sales team
Avoids misleading ADR calculations
Supports better strategic decisions (pricing, inventory, yield)
This feature would be extremely valuable for any property managing group business and forward-looking performance :)
