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 events to metrics and reports. 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. I understand there is a function in MEWS to automate the deposits for new reservations. Is there a way to exclude restricted rates from this automated process?

    The rates we need to exclude are:
    -OTAs (Expedia, booking.com, airbnb)
    -AutoCamp Summit Club
    -AutoCamp Explorer Club
    -Any GRP rate

  3. There are often double charges (merchant is selected, when payment has already been done with terminal). I would therefor like to see a WARNING/NOTIFICATION when you select merchant (e.g. are you sure you would like to charge the creditcard by Merchant / Are you sure that guest has not yet paid with terminal). If you select payment by card, you are automatically on the merchant tab, can it not be default terminal tab ? This to avoid double payments and chargeback issues. Thanks !

  4. When a payment request is expired or paid - it is not assigned to any departments.
    Can we create a setting that this task automatically is assigned to Front Office?

  5. It would be great if we can consolidate hotelpackages, so on the invoice it would only say e.g. Winter-Special, and the guest cannot see how much goes to roomnight and F&B in the package, only citytaxes should be split up.
    Also roomnight shouldn't be many times a seperate line but should just say Roomnight and then the number of nights and the total rate.

  6. When adding a Stay Product in the Items Tab in a Reservation the Product is automatically posted to the Unpaid / Deposit Bill. In the case of a Company or Travel Agent Bill, we need to have the ability to add these items into the correct Bill. Currently, the user needs to move the items when added to the correct Bill. In the case of an Additional Product posting, this can be added in the Billing Screen on the correct Bill. However, when adding Stay Product, there is no choice.

    If the company or travel agent has routing already configured,…

  8. Ensure that the items for each stay are assigned to an individual bill. It is confusing, if there are different stays and prepayments displayed on one bill and extra work is needed to separate them for check-out.

  9. Est-ce possible de modifier la mise en page ainsi que certaines informations sur les factures.
    En effet, les factures ne sont pas lisibles, elles comportent trop d'infos non nécessaires pour les clients.

  10. Previously, closed accounts were shown as €0 and open accounts were either in positive or as €0.00 if the account was at €0 but without closing the billing.
    Seeing that the account was at €0 meant that it was closed, and identifying the open accounts was much easier, could it appear like that again?

  11. Actually you can create a proforma invoice and print it as PDF, but it is not stored in Mews. So, if you like to find it weeks later, there is no chance. E.g. if you like to know on which guest you have created it.

  13. Mews automatically applies cancellation fee for date changes within the cancellation window (unless you untick the box before making a change).

    We do not believe that date changes should be treated the same as cancellations and the cancellation fee should not be automatically applied.

    This is currently causing operational challenges with charges and adjustments in billing (in the rush, staff may forget to untick the box as this is not intuitive).

    It also causes guest complaints, as guests are still charged a fee even though their intention is to stay at the property (they may have just missed a flight…

  14. If you accidentally post an incorrect amount for a Product, or forget to enter some information such as a check no. or any other relevant information, there does not seem to be any way either outright cancel that posting, or to amend either the amount you accidentally posted, or enter some notes you forgot to write.

    Could this please be rectified ASAP?

  15. If a guest has booked a rate that is Full board for example(dinner inluded in the rate), the POS has to recognize this and when posting a dinner for example; Mews has to allocate it to the right cost center and hide it from guest bill (because it's included in the rate)

  17. A lot of companies get different deductions for different services. In order to get full compensation for a stay with breakfast incl. and not being able to not have breakfast, an option to post items as 0.00 would be good

  19. We should be able to change Guest Name for the products in the bill (or leave it without a name).
    For exampe, at the moment if a Guest wouldn't like to show his name on the company invoice we have to cancel all the postings and add them again.
    Thanks
