Passport scanning is not possible. Has somebody else an idea, how we can solve this problem?

Hi all,Has anyone created a way to automate when a product for a late check-out is sold via the booking engine or online check-in, to have the departure time on the reservation automatically update?We are thinking maybe it could be possible with Zapier but its pretty difficult to set up new zaps 😅

Hi Mewsers,I was wondering anyone would answer the following question.We’re debating whether to start accepting different valuta’s in Mews with the Exchange Rate integration. However, we were wondering how the pay-out is done for those payments. Is this in the foreign currency or will this be in the local currency of our property, together with all payments in our local currency.Thanks in advance,Matthias

Hello, most of the time, my team forgets to check the "send marketing emails" option in the profile internals when checking in through the browser. However, when using Mews Kiosk, this doesn't happen since the button is on the profile filling screen. Is there any way to have this button available in the profile section through MEWS for the Browser as well?  

Has anyone integrated a barcode scanner with Mews or with any POS integration yet? Is this even possible?

Hey Community, Just wondering how you manage your voucher codes. We basically have one vouchercode and would love to track that by the value that is then written in the booking engine. As well as having a voucher code where it is able to set how many times this vouchercode can be used.  Example: Investore rate -100% Max Mustermann is on of 200 investors and has 2 free nights. I would like to set the voucher “Investor” with the Value “MAXMUSTERMANN” to activate it and it can only be used 2 times in a specific time. Then i would like to have the value of the Voucher in the report as well. Is this already possible? We often see a problem here with managing vouchers? Do you have that as well?  Best regardsHendrik

Hi everyone! I am looking to improve my report system and analytics. However, I have noticed that all reservations made through my website or directly by the hotel or the reservations department do not have any source, while other channels have source like “booking”, “GDS”… Thanks!

Is it possible to split up a room rate e.g EUR 100,00 into seperate parts on an invoice/ move the parts to different invoices?  Thank you!

Hi everyone,  I need my cleaning staff to have access to the POS for mini bar items but I dont want them to be admin. Does anyone know if it is possible to make that happen? If not, what is your alternative? Thank you in advance! Alida

Hi fellow users!Is there a way to create a promotion with a limit on the number of rooms that are available to be booked on the MEWS Booking Engine?Thanks ahead!

Hi, I’m new and in training and setting up my rates. By default it seems anybody can make a booking in the far future. I can put closed restrictions in a certain time window but if I go farther than that in the future then I can book something say in year 3050 no problem. It is kind of weird to me to have such dates open in my system. Are these far-future availabilities pushed to the OTAs and channel managers? Is the only way to protect oneself from such bookings to put a ridiculously high price on the tarif? seems like a hack to me and a malicious user could still make a phony booking... Is there anyway tarifs can be closed for all dates above a certain date ?Thanks

Good morning,  I’d like to email all our past guests.  Is there a way to export a list of all email addresses of previous guests?  Many thanks in anticipation. Lisa 

Hello We have just Migrate from Amadeus-Hotel Concepts to Mews and we are experiencing a weird bug Indeed while scanning the id to complete the guest profile (or by completing it manually), it appears that all guests borned before 1961 are considered by Mews as being born in the year twothousands...It means that if you are born in 1960, it captures 2060 as the year of birth and therefore you cannot save your guest profile as there is an error message poping up We are in a dd/mm/yy configuration ans have not try another one as we want to stick to it (more common in Europe) Did somebody already enounter that issue and find a solution? If so, I would be glad if you could help. And if the question as already been answered previously in another topic, please accept my apologies in advance ;-) Waiting for your reply  Best regards to all of you Mewsers   Stephane

Bravo à Mews!Chapeau! respect!Avec les tarifs que nous payons, ne pas vouloir sortir un euro pour faire un service client à peu près convenable en demandant à ses propres clients de le faire eux même gratuitement, c’est du grand art!!Point positif: pour une fois, Mews ne nous fait pas payer pour ça. 

Hello everyone We just migrated from Amadeus Idpms to Mews One of the consequences is that some of the open receivables on our books in Amadeus were not yet balanced at the time of migration (because not paid yet).  Recently we have received a payment for an invoice issued in June 2023 I was wondering how to post the payment in Mews. Here is the idea I thought of:=> First: going on to the company profile - billing - open new bill=> Then: go on payment - external - choose invoice and post a negative value of the paid amount (put a note for reference like: “ bill june 2023 Amadeus”)=> Last: post the payment (wire transfer in this case) which would balance the bill  What do you think? The main question here of course is: how to process the remaining receivables from the previous PMS in Mews ?😉 Thanks in advance for your help and insights Regards 

is kit possible if you made a mistake with maetro paying to refund this with mews?

We created a package with 2 different half board.On the first night, I need to post products from our first restaurant (Evening Meal - food + beverages at RestoX). On the second night, I need to post another product from our other restaurant (Evening Meal - food & beverage at RestoY).In the product configuration, you do not have this kind of choice.The product is “Per Person”. But one is before the first night and the other one is before the second night. The only options are Reservation Start / Reservation End. Neither is correct.  => how to post the correct products with correct prices on the correct nights?
