    Hi Nick,

    Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. Did you know that because overbooking’s have not been allocated to a specific space you can find them in the reservations report by grouping by space?

    There is a recorded overview of exactly how you can use this functionality in the link below:

  2. At the moment the SC number is posted at the IATA field which is incorrect.
    Please create a new field for the SC number and include it into the reporting.

    The SC number is the international ID for companies within Accor and helps to ensure to have the correct company profile selected.

    This "little" change would effect allot and would be highly appreciated not only from MOA Berlin but all Accor hotels using MEWS worldwide.

    Thank you in advance.

  3. Hello,

    the name "begleiter" is a confusing translation. It should actually be called guest name!!! In addition, the name (Kunde) customer is sometimes confused with campanion ("begleiter").

    Under group details all "guest"/ companion names" are listed. But above it sais "Customer/Kunde".

    Underneath all rooms are listed, but with the name of the customer not with the actual guest names..
    it is very confusing.

    Hello from the Mews product team.

    We are so pleased to let you know that your feature request has been released. All translations described have now been resolved. Should you encounter any other issues, please do let us know and we will address them.

    Thank you again for sharing your idea!

  4. 99% of guests in the US and Canada do not travel with their passport. Therefore Mews ID scanner doesn't work in this region. Properties are looking for ways to automate their check-in and checking ID/Driver's License is absolutely crucial.

    Scanning IDs and DLs is a needed feature in North America.

    Properties should also be able to make this a mandatory step if a guest wants to check in on a kiosk.

  5. On Google's paid networks: Search, Display and YouTube and I want to track conversions (e.g., which ads convert into confirmed bookings).

    A better approach to tags is allowing placement of Google Ads' conversion tracking code directly into Mews: 1) Booking confirmation page, and 2) Newsletter sign-up confirmation page.

    Beyond sales, tracking conversions for newsletter sign up is necessary too. For example, I can predict how much it will cost me to generate X amount of newsletter sign-ups with enough historical data. If my historical average is $3 per newsletter sign-up over 12 months, I know it will cost me about $1,000 to…

    Hello from the Mews product team,

    Thank you for your suggestion, Google Ads conversion tracking can be enabled through Google Tag Manager.

    You can install conversion tracking tag by following this guide: https://support.google.com/google-ads/answer/6095821?hl=en
    (“Option 2: Use Google Tag Manager” section)

    Read how to enable Google Tag manager for your Mews booking engine: https://mews-systems.gitbook.io/distributor-guide/distributor-widget/integrations

    I hope that helps.

  6. We have long term residential guests who stay with us through a partner provider and who each sign a contract before they arrive - it would be great to be able to attach a copy of the contract to the guest profile so we can refer to it quickly and easily.

  7. When you export customer profiles to excel, the field 'language' is not added. So I need to filter on postal code to know which language the customer speaks. Which is totally incorrect.
    Please add the field 'language' to the excelfile guest profiles.

  9. Currently the QR code is automatically attached to confirmation email and cannot be removed. It's confusing for our guests as they don't know why we have this attachment on their confirmation email.
    An hotel can prefer to communicate about their online check-in than checking in on a Kiosk. I would prefer if you could hotel choose.

    Hi Mewsers!
    You can now disable the QR code from all guest-facing emails through the Settings.

    To do so, please navigate to Settings > Services > Stay > Options and make sure that you don’t have “Enable QR code in emails” option selected.

    If the option is disabled, placeholder in the body email is ignored and won’t be shown in the email body, neither the QR code attachment.

  10. Hey, I was thinking it would be cool if there is an online check-out option for guests who are in a hurry- just in case the queue is longer at some times- they could check themselves out via the plattform with which they booked and put in the keycard in a machine (like a ticket machine). To avoid people leaving without paying open bills, the machine could decline the keycard with a loud noise and inform us at the reception. I know that this might seem too good to be true and not manageable but I have actually been to…

    Hi Mewsers,
    we already offer the online check-out to guests who are in hurry and who want to skip the queue at the reception.

    Guests can do the online check-out from their phone, tablet, or laptop. In case there are some unpaid bills they are required to pay for them, they can add their billing details or claim items from minibar if your property have any.
    https://help.mews.com/en/articles/4245851-what-is-online-check-out

    Try it out! Guests love it!
    Check-out is also coming to the Operator, soon, so stay tuned! :-)

    Have a great day,
    Aneta

  11. On the body of the email the guest receives, it would be good to change the signature line in the email. We would like to change “The Mews Team” to “AutoCamp Russian River”. Our guests don't know who "The Mews Team" is and it should default to the property name.

    Hi Robert,
    thanks for your input. That makes sense! We put the property name to the signature. It should appear in production in the upcoming days.

  12. Currently, with a self check-in through Operator, the only time the guest is informed about his/her room number is at the final step of the check in.
    We would like to set up an "After check-in" which the guest can look at if he/she doens´t remember the room number and no reception is there. In order to do so, we would need a placeholder for the room number! Would be great, thanks!

    Hello from the Mews product team and thank you for your suggestion! We can confirm that email is an optional field in Kiosk (formerly Operator) as well as during the Online Check-in. So guests are able to skip entering the email for any children in their group.

  17. As the 'Mail Templates' section is already limited, a lot of HTML and other code is needed for the formatting of emails. Please give us the option within the Mail Templates section to send a test email to a custom email address.

    Now you can actually see all the preview of emails within the customization of emails.

  18. If you receive a reservation via distributor, the guest can send you a message in Mews but the hotel cannot reply?!? Than, we have to send an email and this is not stored in Mews.

    Hi Mewsers,
    if you received the message from guest via messaging service directly in PMS it was sent from guest portal, not directly from Distributor. You can easily reply on that message through messaging module directly in Mews Commander.
    You can read more in Help article: https://help.mews.com/en/articles/4245614-read-and-reply-to-messages

  19. Would be great if we can lock certain company profiles.
    So we can ensure its not overridden. Some integrating parties use these, and when deleted integrations may break. Also in certain countries specific fields are required. Would be great if we could also lock these for modification such as VAT fields/ Code fisc. etc.

  20. being able to set up parameters for the deletion of guest data. Some countries have restrictions for how long we are allowed to store this data. I.E 2 yrs after the last check in, or something similar.
