  1. Paypal is an external payment type in Mews Commander, however we cannot send an external payment via the API with this payment type and has to be listed in the notes.

  2. Hold reservation source data when creating reservations via connector. At the moment source is simply listed as connector. But we need to show whether that researvaton source was email, phone, onsite etc. Currently we are using Salesforce API via connector to create reservations but losing this data.

  3. Yep, the issues we have that is looks like this mews connector is something you install on a desktop and then manually start it or something.

    We need to have this running on a server as a service/deamon, so it autostarts when we the server is started and not for a user to login and autostart.

    We have it autostarting, and autouserlogin, with locks the screen after a few moniutes, but that is not how it should be running, should be a bit more robust.

    Preferably also with something to monitor (logs, proceses, http requests) so our monitoring can see…

    A short update: we are currently investigating with our team to determine the feasibility of making a cross-platform, Windows-service ready, version of Mews Connector. More news on this investigation in the coming weeks. 

  4. Add property "Type" to the request body of the Get all Bills endpoint, allowing to filter on only 'Invoice' for example.

    Hello from the Mews product team. Thank you for your suggestion, we have updated your request and set it as one to be upvoted by the Mews Community. Remember you can share a link to your request so that your colleagues can also upvote your suggestion.

  5. There's currently no way to change a reservation's status to "Optional" using the API. There are individual endpoints for confirming and canceling a reservation, but no endpoint for making one optional. A specific endpoint, or an extension to the [PlatformAddress]/api/connector/v1/reservations/update that allows for modifying the reservation state would be great!

    Why? We allow our users to create "Enquired" reservations but they now have no way to make those reservations "Optional" (from our system)

    Thanks!

  6. Use case: allow guests to eventually check out on Operator tablet by using their key card as an identifier of the reservation/guest that is checking-out.

    Other use cases can include making use of "check-out" features available in key cutter programs such as Salto for increased security

  7. Connect to RemoteLock - with contactless being the standard, many US hotels are moving to pin/door code locks and would be great to seamlessly integrate code generation, and include in welcome email.

  8. For the connector API it is necessary to retrieve all rooms each time an API Call is made to pull the space feature, this is quite a heavy call for TSH as some hotels have 700 rooms.

    Could Mews consider to introduce a filter by room name ideally?

    This way Ireckonu or another integrating partner does not need to pull all rooms each time.

  10. Be able to modifiy the product rate depending on the date booked. For example, if you have "Dinner" as a product and its price is changing depending on the day of the week (weekdays or weekends) or the period of the year (Christmas, August...) it is going to be awesome to be able to change its price for every single day you need to.

  12. In the current Salto integration with Mews, Mews only sends one room number/lock id to be encoded in Salto. This presents an operational challenge for properties that have the following room structure:

    6228 - main suite (parent space)
    230 - private room for 2 persons (child space)
    228 - dorm room with 4 beds (child space with 4 additional child spaces nested)
    228-1,2,3,4 - four separate dorm beds

    230 and 228 can be sold separately, as is any of the four beds. A party of 6 can also book the entire suite 6228.

    In the latter case, a key card…

  13. Adding functionatlity to create/edit vouchers and their codes would be useful for a number of use cases.

    Firstly in my opinion the Mews process for creating this is a little clunky, especially if you want to track the usage of each VC as it needs to be it's own Voucher, there's no way to track the codes within that voucher.

    Therefore lets say you have a staff friends & family rate, and you want the voucher code to be the employee name so you can track usage and abuse of the incentive.

    Creating additional codes for an already created voucher…

  15. Hi Mews team,

    We are using Mews Distributor for our Pay on Arrival dates with activated 1% Pre-authorization on credit/debit cards.

    However, the Distributor states that customer will "pay" the 1%.
    For example, if the whole booking costs £350.00, the customer will be pre-authorized for £3.50.
    Mews Distributor currently states that the customer will "pay £3.50".

    This is incorrect, as full payment, not a remainder, will be taken on arrival.

    Can we please have the wording changed from "pay" to "pre-authorized" or similar.

    Thanks!

  17. The booking engine always defaults to tomorrows date

    · Given that we are a seasonal property please can we default to our winter opening date... as irritating for people to search for rates over the period that we are closed

  18. By doing more actions Mews to Mews on Zapier we would be able to have an infinite possibility of automations in various fields such as :
    - payments : charge 50% remaining of a flexible rate, 30 days before arrival
    -preauthorisations : on day of arrival, charge automatically the preauthorisations. If failed send email to team and guest...
    - out of order : if maintenance issue task, turn property to OOO
    -...
    If doable the possibilities would be endless and allow advance users through automation to personalize/automate their PMS
