Stop Charge: preventing charges / postings onto profile

Hello,

 

I was wondering if anyone had any advice on the below :) 

 

Is there a way to prevent products being added to a bill, for example if the customer declines a preauthorization on their card as we would not want any extra products posted on their bill.

it wouldn’t necessarily be posting products onto Mews (when on Mews) it might be another department posting from the EPOS system into Mews i.e. from the Restaurant, the guest wants to charge their bill to their reservation instead of paying directly at the Restaurant.

At former properties (using a different system), when we have tried to charge to the PMS from EPOS, we would be notified if the guest had credit. If there was a ‘stop charge’ on their reservation, this would mean that the guest didn’t have credit and we wouldn’t be able to charge to the reservation.
 

Thank you!

Hello @yasminamyes 

 

You can always put the guest under “cashlist” status in his profile

https://help.mews.com/s/article/Classifying-guests-in-Mews-Operations?language=en_US#Guest-classification-types

This icon will then appear (on the reservation overview amongst others) 

but it won’t prevent anybody to post products on his bill

 

That may be a good idea to post on the https://feedback.mews.com/ if it does not already exist
