  1. Currently, when the Accounting Category linked to a Rate is changed, this update is not applied retroactively to the existing Service Orders (reservations) created with that rate.
    This means that if a rate was initially linked to the wrong Accounting Category, all existing bookings will keep the incorrect category, even after the rate setup is corrected.

    Example:
    If a rate was first linked to Leisure instead of Accommodation, and later the Accounting Category is fixed, the previous reservations still show Leisure and therefore report incorrect revenue data.

    Request:
    Please allow the system to automatically update the Accounting Category for all…

  2. For financial integration, the Payments API is currently not exposing the additional fee charges that are added days after the original payment. The API currently only contains the charges and fees taken on the day (except fees for payments using Alternative Payment methods, which is a separate issue known by Mews).
    The Payout Report in Mews shows that in addition to these original payments and fees, a number of Commission Adjustments, that are recalculated fees from payments, 2 or more days previously, are added to the day's payout total. None of these Commission Adjustments are included in the API.

  3. When a reservation is locked in Mews (to ensure the guest keeps the specific room they have been assigned), the reservation currently becomes unlocked if the guest updates their check-in time during online check-in (e.g. via Duve).

    This creates a risk that the room assignment can be changed afterwards without us noticing, since we do not receive any notification that the reservation was modified and unlocked.

    Proposed improvement:
    If a reservation is locked, changes made during online check-in (such as check-in time updates) should not automatically unlock the reservation. Alternatively, Mews could keep the reservation locked or automatically re-lock it…

  4. When CHM bookings are settled using a VCC (Virtual Credit Card), it would be best if the amount that can be automatically charged to the card can be configured to add the products added through product rules.

  5. Use Case:
    We're developing a Kitchen Display System (KDS) integration with the MEWS POS API. A KDS needs real-time notifications when:
    - A new order is created
    - Items are added/modified on an existing order
    - Orders are merged

    Current Limitation:
    The available webhook events don't cover order creation or item additions:
    - order.state.updated - Only fires on state changes (e.g., open→paid), not on initial creation
    - order.status.updated - Fires on fulfillment status changes, but not triggered when order is created
    - order.total.updated - Only fires on tip/correction changes
    - order.payments.added - Fires when payment is added (too late for…

  6. We are a small hotel with only 15 rooms. I would love to be able to limit the number of rooms sold both, at one session and in total.

    We recently received a booking of 10 rooms under one name and for a single night only. We now set a min. stay of two nights to prevent that from happening in the future. However, for certain periods I would like to be able to close the sale of rooms automatically via channel manager after a particular number of rooms sold.

  7. It is helpful to have a separate webhook event for ServiceOrderCreated (Additionally to ServiceOrderUpdated) to discriminate new from changed reservations. Similar to Customer, where both events have a separate webhook.

  8. Integrations (like Duve or Ariane), basically all the ones that are capable of handling an online check-in flow should be able to change the reservation status to OCI concretely.

    Perhaps they could have their own specific label & color (3rd Party OCI) to differentiate them from the Mews GX native OCI label.

  9. Right now, Mews decides what integrates as "general notes" or "channel manager notes" depending on the keywords from the logs. Clients would like us to consider expanding the keywords for channel manager notes so the comments can be integrated as channel manager notes all the time in the reservations.

  11. Mews is calculating taxes on pretax value that gets from Channel manager (Siteminder in our case) which results in difference of few cents in the total amount that Mews tries to charge VCC. In most cases charge fails because of 'isuficient funds' on VCC.
    Solution can be implemented using the existing fields that are sent by SiteMinder to Mews, i.e. by adding the (i) pre-tax value and (ii) total taxes value, as the total would match the SiteMinder chargeable amount.

  12. One of our properties uses Lynx to talk to an automatic door lock system. Each booking generates a PIN number which is sent to the locks and automatically enables for the duration of their stay. We have to log into the Lynx system to see this, as the PMS field named PinNumber is not visible anywhere. It would be great if this could be added.
    It would also be great if there was a direct integration to lock providers such as Yale and TTLock, so we could skip the third party. I understand Mews wanting to push their own lock…

  13. I use Zapier to synchronise new and updated customers from Mews to Zapier and then to an email campaign provider to send out campaigns. There is a very important field that is not synced from Mews to Zapier: "send marketing mails". We all want to respect the GDPR, but then we need that important data field. :)

  15. Improving user experience by implementing substring matching, allowing incomplete inputs to return results, and fuzzy search to display relevant results even in case of minor typos.

    Verbesserung der Nutzerfreundlichkeit durch Unterstützung von „Substring-Matching“, damit auch unvollständige Eingaben Ergebnisse liefern und „Fuzzy Search“, um auch bei kleinen Tippfehlern relevante Treffer anzuzeigen.

  16. There is already a STR interface, but STR told me today that it's unable to pull segmentation via API. This is critical for us. Just pulling all revenue stats into "Totals" is not good enough for our hotels.

  19. We would like to give the guest possibility to book a table in Mews Booking Engine - and it should be possible to book a table in Guest Portal - we are using integration ResDiary. Their answer:

    As this integration was developed and is managed by Mews, they are best to check with them if there are any planned improvements and any requests to their team for consideration.
