Check in nach 24 Uhr

Ich habe einen Check-in Automaten von Ariane. Leider werden die Reservierungen nach 24 Uhr nicht mehr gefunden. Wo kann ich die Einstellung korrekt vornehmen, um auch nach 24 Uhr am Automaten einchecken zu lassen?

Monthly KPIS and future stays

Hi everyone!It’s my first month at Mews and I am getting crazy to prepare the end of the month reports. I am very surprised how difficult is to pull out basic KPIs such as occupancy %, revenue and room nights per channel/segment for a closed month. I still don’t understand why the reservations by source report doesn’t count the manual reservations.I have checked Mews University and the discrepancies between the manager report and the reservations report… too much work that could be easily solved with a simple dashboard. Plus you need to run month by month if you wanna see how the pace is performing for the future. Personally I expected much more from Mews regarding KPIs. It’s definitely not at the same level of the rest of the platform. Just start with the basics!I would appreciate some guidance to make the reporting process easier. Thanks!

MEWS landing page language selection?

Hi all,First post here. I'm running tech support for a small rental apartment website that will integrate MEWS into it's pages.So not really up to speed with the whole MEWS system/backend tbh.Our website is multi language (NL/EN/DE), and will have a button to switch to the MEWS landing page for date searches, booking etc.What I would like to set up is that every language version of the website will open up the corresponding language version of the MEWS landing page.So the button on the Dutch website will open the Dutch version of the MEWS page, the English website the English landing page etc.The MEWS backend has all languages set up, and this all works in the frontend. So that part is fully set up and finalized.Any tips on how can I set this up in a weblink on a button, so I can ‘direct’ the landing page to a preferred language.Thanks for all replies,Rob WuPakasa - LeidenHolland

How do I setup a booking engine without guest count ?

Hi there!For a bookable service for space like parking or bike, or similar a guest /adult count doesn’t make sense. Is it possible to disable the adult count field in the booking engine for that bookable service somehow?I checked  help and asked the bot, and searched feedback, but could find anything in that regard.So I figured either I am missing something obvious, or it’s really not there …?Best regards,JP.

Integration von XRechnung Deutschland

Guten Tag zusammen,gibt es Informationen, wie die Integration von XRechnung Deutschland in Mews abläuft? Die Integration im Marketplace/Abonnements ist bereits durchgeführt. Schaltete Mews das Programm ab 01. Januar 2025 automatisch aktiv oder muss eine manuelle Freischaltung durchgeführt werden (wenn ja, wie?).Es wäre schön, wenn jemand mehr Infos hierzu hätte! Besten Dank!

Is there a way to Reorder spaces

Hi, I can see how to reorder space categories but is it possible to reorder the actual spaces?We use room names rather than types and would prefer if we could have specific rooms/spaces to be booked first so ordered first, but it does not seem possibe in the space set up to order them?

Tax-Exempt Reservations / Removal of VAT without duplicating your product library.

We have been using MEWS since March 2024 and are located in Ohio, USA. Due to our location, we work closely with government agencies, local higher education organizations, and several 501© tax-exempt organizations. We asked this during our onboarding almost 10 months ago and received the same responses listed in Can you generate invoice without VAT  Summary - duplicate your product library (both Stay and Additional Services) that have the option of a taxed and non-taxed item/stay/product, or, create a product that you add to the bill as a negative amount equal to the taxed amounts. Has anyone found any other “work arounds” to this? Is ​@Mews Community Team  looking into a more user-friendly alternative (I provided a suggestion in the topic linked above)? I assume we are not the only company that runs into this issue, so are there any other issues other people are running into, or other solutions? If your company runs into this issue, or you think you might, please like/comment/follow t

Buchungseingang Channelmanager - automatische Verbuchung als Überweisung

Wir bekommen unsere Buchungen von Booking über einen Channelmanager. Unsere Zahlungen von Booking erhalten wir am Folgetag als Überweisung.Wenn Gäste nach Feierabend buchen, können Sie zwar über den Kiosk einchecken, müssten aber die Rechnung theoretisch noch einmal bezahlen. Daher meine Frage: Gibt es bei Mews die Möglichkeit, dem Vertriebskanal Booking eine bestimmte Zahlweise (Überweisung) vorzugeben, damit der offene Betrag sofort auf Null gesetzt wird?

Closing Bill Issues from recent release: Credit note not visible

Hi Mews Community, I would like to know if any of your hotels are facing an issue regarding the management of adjustments and credit notes? In our hotels, when trying to create a credit note, it is impossible to view it and correctly associate it with the following items: Bill, payment For exemple, An invoice for €900 A credit note for €150 A payment of €750The balance should be balanced.The issues encountered are:The credit note is marked as "unpaid," when it is actually a refund, and it is listed under invoice xxx, although it is not an invoice. It is impossible to reconcile the unpaid invoice, as the credit note is neither assignable nor identifiable in the system. (Previously, there was a line in the billing tab.)Are you facing this issue too? If so how did you solve it? Any tips would be greatly appreciatedBest regards,

Tip handling check out

Timeline Update

Dear CommunityWe used to be able to see all the rooms of the “group” (if a reservation belonged to one) lighted up when clicked on one in the timeline. This was easy for room allocation, to make sure reservations of two or three rooms were not placed on opposite sides of the hotel. I noticed today that this feature is no longer working. I preferred it when it was still possible to see the entire group, this made my work a lot easier. Now I have to manually go to each reservation to make sure I’m not missing something. Any one else having trouble with this?

Billing - added product displayed twice

Dear Mews, I noticed that on the billing screen, an added product is henceforth displayed twice.(although in fact consumed only once)I see this is to do with either “Linking product to reservation” or not.If you do (which is default), the 1 product is listed twice on the billing screen.If you don’t, the 1 product is listed once on the billing screen.1 product being listed twice on the same bill creates confusion - it gives the idea that there were two consumptions (whereas only one was taken).However, as the default setting is to link the product to a reservation, there must be a good reason to work this way? Please let me know what the best way to work is.Most clear way to work, as far as I am concerned, is that 1 added product is listed once on the billing screen (~ siutation 2).Any implications I should be aware of when not linking a product to a reservation?---I will visualise both situations:  Situation 1: one product (minibar consumption) is added and ‘product is linked to reserv
