How Do I..

Dear all I am looking for other users with Mews integrated with Book Visit as I am having some issues regarding the transfer of payment between the two systems. Anyone?Best regards Ajaja

Hi all,How do you manage the tracking of your rollaway beds / baby cots at your location?We would like to find a way to associate the product with a reservation. To be noted, we only have a few of those on site and don’t always charge for their placement. Furthermore, the product report does not show which reservations have the product charged anyways.How do you keep track with how many beds are already confirmed or placed into the rooms with Mews? At this time we are using an excel sheet. Creating the bookable service seem to confusing and not mistake-proof..Thanks for your tips on that!

Hey at all We do have a challenge with the 2-way connection between Expedia - Siteminder - Mews The prices we sent out from MEWS comes 1:1 to Siteminder. From Siteminder to Expedia we charge + € 5 and + 5%  All the time when we receive a Expedia Booking in MEWS we need to change the price manually.Any Ideas, why the prices are incorrect?With booking.com we do not have this problems and they do have the same set up. Looking forward to your help

Hi,I’d like your advice on the following dilemma.We have 2 apartments, which we offer as apartments for 2 people. Each apartment has two extra bedrooms, which we open up for 3+ or 5+ guests (using extra beds function). As apartment 2 has larger extra bedrooms than the apartment 1, we would like to use different prices per extra bed (€55 per extra bed in apartment 1 and €75 per extra bed in apartment 2).As far as I can see, it is not possible to specify extra bed price per room type (or override the extra bed price per room type).Has anybody else had this issue, and if so how did you solve it?I’m thinking along the following lines:I suppose I could add a new tariff group for each apartment with it’s own tariff (based on the standard tariff), and set the extra bed price in each tariff. But that I suppose would require restrictions (to make each apartment only available to it’s dedicated tariff).As these apartments wi

Hi My accountant is asking for a report that details each reservation and their payments.Is there a way to extract this information? Looking at the various reports I can get all the reservations and their totals.And all the payments and their bills per person (the MEWS way) Anyone have an idea how to get the payments per reservation? Thanks!!

Can I embed an image map into a Before Start email?

Hola a todos como estan?Alguien con MEWS intalado en Mexico para ponernos en contacto?Saludos

Alright, who is a champion on the Mail Templates?Essentially, I assume (and we all know how good that is) that if I see a mail template, in the list, it is being sent out. There is no way to draft as I do not see a on/off switch, is that the case?As well, I see something on the list, buuuuuut I know it isn't being sent out. What’s the deal with that?Finally, can we create new ones or only work with the list that is there?Luv,Dan

Hi everyone, i was wondering how you set up your rate management.We load the rate for double occupany and insert in adjusments -15 for a negative occupancy. Because of that we are not able to work with child prices. Has anyone else this problem? We are now thinking about to change the rate managment to single occupany. But is it then possible to book for 3 persons? Thank you!Nina

Hi guys, I would like to have your feedback on the following scenario: The property has a third-party supplier who rents out the kitchen.They sell meals to guests and locals.The hotel has a bar which is handled by the property. When guests take a meal from a supplier, they charge this in Mews on a room.At the end of the month, they pay the taken amounts back to the supplier.The same with Lightspeed, they book the meal in LS and take the payment on behalf of the supplier. This means they book revenue that is not actually theirs and payout 100%.They don’t wish to have separate terminals as the guest would need to pay for the food to the supplier and for the drinks to the hotel. IMHO this is a standard to have outsourced facilities and manage the accounting accordingly and the accountant should be able to deal with that easily, but as per them it is not the way they wish to handle that...any feedback wou
