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.

  2. when you try to set the date in the (new) task, the calendar heights changes continuously between months. this is really annoying as you need to watch where you click if it is for say 5 months later.
    either change the calendar position or introduce being able to link task to an arrival / departure event

  4. 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

  6. 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 !

  7. 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?

  8. 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.

  11. we have several rates with the same name as we use them for different lengths of stay (i.e. corporate rate). we do not wish to display the minimum stay restrictions in the rate name itself.
    however, when creating a new rate which is linked to the base rate (i.e. you get 28% discount for stays of 7 nights), it only displays the full name. this is really annoying as you don't always know which one to pick.
    so it would be much more beneficial if you could pick the base rate on the short name (they are all individual like…

  12. 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,…

  15. If the property offers e.g. 10 baby beds the product should only be bookable if one of the 10 beds are available.

    Second option would be that e.g. only 2 of the 10 double rooms have the space for an extra bed -> restricting on room count

  17. We currently have the ability to assign a task to a user. However, in Notes, we can only leave plain text messages. We would like the ability to tag users using @function in Notes if this is possible. Also, would like to see who left a note by User and the note alway appears as General and not the specific user to created the Note.

  19. 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.
