Mews PMS & Property Operations

Hi Community,Has anyone figured a way to hide the service charge box when adding an additional service product?We have the setting that ‘order requires a product’ however we are continuously needing to remind the team to ignore this first box and only use products. In our properties we never want to use this service charge box and hoping someone out here has found a way to hide this. Thanks!

Hello all!  We’re on our 3rd week with Mews, still trying to figure some stuff out 😄 If anyone knows, how do I modify a room rate on a reservation that is due to check out?  Any help will be greatly appreciated! 

Is it just me or does it take ages whenever you create a new company profile and want to add a routing rule until the company profile is found? I have to refresh many times until I can find the company. I thought it would be so much easier to already add the routing rule from the company profile directly when creating the company, either by a ticking box or a drop down menu? If you agree: https://feedback.mews.com/forums/918232-property-operations-pms/suggestions/48756575-add-routing-rule-directly-from-company-profile :)

Moin zusammen,  wir versuchen derzeitig unser Secret Escapes handling zu optimieren und stoßen da an einige limitierungen seitens Mews. Mich würde interessieren, wie ihr im moment Secret Escpaes handhabt, da ja die Gäste einen Anspruch auf die Rechnung haben.  Unsere Idee ist es, auf der Gastrechnung lediglich die folgenden Produkte stehen zu lassen: Übernachtung Frühstück City TaxAlle anderen Produkte sollen an sich weitere geroutet werden auf ein PM (was nicht geht). Daher würde nun das Firmenprofil lediglich in Frage kommen.Anschließend müssen bei uns drei Zahlungen getätigt werden: 2 x Ghost Payment (Positiver Betrag und der gleiche Negativ Betrag zum Ausgleich) (1 auf dem Gastprofil und eins auf dem Firmenprofil) 1 x VCC Belastung (auf dem Firmenprofil)Der Gast erhält dann im Anschlus eine Rechnung mit dem Ghost Payment von uns. Allerdings lassen sich de

Hey Everyone,I’m experiencing an issue with the Mews application when assigning spaces. When I try to assign rooms, I’m unable to add a space and press Enter. When I press Enter, it deletes the recently added space and overwrites the previous space.To add multiple spaces, I now have to use the mouse and select them manually. Previously, I could add a space, press Enter, and then add the next space with another Enter. This functionality no longer works.Can you please help me restore this feature?Thank you!

Hi Community! How can I see a report metric for sales via the website (booking widget)? Thank you for your input!

Hello,I keep running into missing space feature classifications to finally make full use of the “Preferred space feature” assignment strategy and the “Optimize space allocation” function Mews. I went through 25 hotels and checked for space features that most hotels seem to have/would be able to make use of.Please use this thread to let me know if I am missing anything important. I will then add this to the existing feature requests in the comments and share the link so we can all upvote. ;-)These are my findings (excluding the ones that already exist):Allergy room Bathtub Carpet City view Close to event space Coffee maker Connecting door Courtyard view Far from elevator Fridge Hardwood floor Kettle Loud Minibar Mountain view Park view Pet Queen bed Quiet Shower Singl

Rate handling is one of the fundamental systems in MEWS and a logic that runs through many systems. In my opinion, MEWS implements this quite well with variable pricing, rate restrictions and products including product rules. The technical support of rates in third-party systems is also quite good, as it is a widely used logic.Since we have been with MEWS for a few months now and have completed the first turn of the year, I have a few points to mention on this topic: The way in which MEWS regulates special occupancy (single person and additional people) in rates is not particularly flexible (why are only absolute value adjustments possible and not relative ones). I therefore assume that many people use rates or products for these scenarios to be more flexible.It would be extremely helpful if you could create rate restrictions and product rules based on the number of people in a room.   Yielding is a

Good afternoon Mews addicts :)I have another question that came to mind. What is the workflow for enabling testing within the operational environment? Certain things are not possible in the demo environment without invoicing the rooms each time. How do you handle this when you want to perform a valid test (without using the demo environment, which doesn’t have an email client attached)?Thank you in advance for your responsesWarm regardsPierrick RobynHotel Pavillon Du ZouteKnokke-Heist (Belgium)

So, this should be fairly straightforward however does not seem to be playing ball with me and its now becoming quite annoying. What I need to set is a 2-night minimum length of stay for a Saturday, that effectively ‘lifts’ on Thursday to allow one night stays. It is currently set as this:which according to help articles etc says that this will apply a minimum 2 night restriction if the guest is booking more than 3 days in advance, but not apply restriction if less than 3 days in advance? Am I misunderstanding? as all that happens with this is it stops anyone booking any stay that is includes a Saturday no matter how long in advance they book and closes channel managers for Saturdays entirely. If i switch this round and do Minimum 3 days advance then it works as MLOS for Saturdays on channel managers b

Hallo zusammen,gerade jetzt, wenn wir für deutsche Gäste keine Daten mehr abfragen, merken wir wie sehr ein Popup Fenster bei checkin fehlt. (Bisher war es immer ein Post-it auf dem Meldeschein).Habt ihr Tipps, wie Mitarbeiter an Infos erinnert werden, die bei check-in abgefragt werden sollen?Danke euch.Viele Grüße,Jasmin

Bonjour, j’ai vu que pour imprimer les factures au moment du check out  nous avons 3 types de choix/options possiblethe default Detailed overview, and additionally Overview by date, Overview by reservation,par contre aucune de ces options ne permet de masquer le détail des consommations au bar que le client aurait pu avoir. Par exemple une note pour notre restaurant :RESTAURANT (point de vente):cocktail champagne 18€ Menu du marché 35€ 2 verres de vin 24€Comment faire pour regrouper en 1 ligne les consommations de notre point de vente restaurant avec un global de 77€? je sais que la TVA sera ventilée à 20% pour les alcools mais les clients demandent souvent 1 seul ligne globale.Merci pour votre aide.   

Ist es möglich, bereits ausgestellte Debitor Rechnungen komplett zu stornieren? Es handelt sich um uneinbringliche Forderungen (Firmen sind insolvent), eine Zahlung wird nicht mehr stattfinden. Buchhalterisch sind die Forderungen aus dem Umsatz genommen, aber wie korrigiert/storniert man die weiter existierenden Debitor Rechnungen dazu? Besten Dank!

Hello everyone,we've noticed that when creating a reservation, on the “Details” page, the confirmation mode defaults to “Do not send”. By changing the reservation status (to Requested or Optional) or even back to Confirmed, the confirmation mode automatically changes from “Do not send” to “Send”. This can be a source of error if the person making the reservation doesn't notice it. I think it would be preferable for the confirmation mode to default to “Do not send”, and for the person making the reservation to change it manually if necessary. what do you think? 

Hello everyone,we have encountered a small problem with customers who received booking confirmations and quotes (with rates) when they were travel agency bookings. customers were able to confirm and cancel these bookings directly from Mews Guest Portal. While it is clearly stated in the configuration of e-mail sending parameters, in the first remark: “Mews does not send e-mails to the recipient's address if it is not that of the company or travel agency associated with the booking.”but it seems that this rule is not applied. can you explain?

Hi I tried searching for similar questions, but couldn’t find anything. The team here got curious about how we can check for past guests in specific rooms. We were wondering e.g. who was in room 202 yesterday, in the case that their reservation was moved to another room or cancelled. I suppose that is shown on the guest’s action log, but the rooms don’t seem to have a similar action log where that is accessible. There is a ‘Recent space changes’ option, but that doesn’t show past guests. In our case, we don’t know who was the guest that was in 202 - that’s what we’re trying to find out. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

How to Configure Additional Person Charges Based on Room Category.We have room categories where the cost for an additional person is not the same depending on the category (e.g., Suite, Classic).

When we started with Mews we uploaded the import file with the already existing company profiles from our old PMS, and it contained a whole bunch of double data so I’m trying to merge the company profiles. Unfortunately I often have the case that one profile has the address, the other doesn’t, and when I want to merge both profiles I don’t see the address information, so I am never really sure which one to keep and which one not, but merging them does not mean the address will be updated and it happens that when I pick the wrong one, the address is just gone. Does anyone have any tips to handle this as uncomplicated as possible? :) 

Ich habe gerade versucht, im Gruppenreiter eine Zimmerliste mit den Teilnehmern und den E-Mail-Adressen hochzuladen. In der Liste war nun ein Teilnehmer, der bereits einmal zu Gast war und für den bereits ein Konto existiert - das wusste aber vorab niemand, so dass wir den bereits existierenden Gast nicht vor herunterladen der Blanko-Liste die wir an den Bucher geschickt haben noch nicht vorher eingetragen hatten, also war er auf der Blanko-liste auch noch nicht mit seinem bereits existierenden Konto.  Jetzt habe ich von Mews die Fehlermeldung erhalten, dass bereits ein Konto mit der E-Mail-Adresse existiert und musste bei 30 Teilnehmern erst einmal heraussuchen, wer denn bereits im System vorhanden ist.  Hat jemand einen praktikablen Trick, wie man so etwas umgeht? Ich weiß, wäre der Gast bereits eingetragen gewesen, hätte Mews bei der Liste auch diekt die Kundenkennung eingetragen, aber wenn wir den Firmen die Liste blanko schicken und sie vorab noch ni

Good morning, Not sure if an error or well-thought out: When we lock a room (eg. to a TWIN room), and later add an ETA (eg. arriving at 13:00 instead of standard check-in time 15:00), the room unlocks.Thank you for your feedback. 

Bonjour,Je cherche à faire de mon tarif de base 'Stay' le tarif de base d'un autre service ('Appartements'). Est-il possible de les lier dans l'état actuelle des choses ? L'option Multi-Property pourrait changer quelque chose ?Merci d'avance pour votre aide...

Greetings to all, We have situation in which a parking as bookable service has been added to guests bill and now it needs to be canceled or better yet to be removed. However since guest has checked out, nothing can be done with it. There is no option to -remove and item- , so how to make this outstanding bill to 0 and to close it? Thank you for all your tips and advices. BestBojana

Good morning ya’all!I was wondering if it's possible to change room prices for past dates? Sometimes we have larger groups with negotiated rates, but when some guests (within this group) decide to extend their stay by one more day, Mews applies the rack rate instead of the agreed ‘group rate’.If I don’t notice this right away, I can no longer make adjustments for past dates (only for the current day). I hope this explanation makes a little bit sense :)Thank you in advance for your replies.Kind regardsPierrick RobynHotel Pavillon Du ZouteKnokke-Heist (Belgium)

Hallo Zusammen,auf den Rechnungen wird bei uns, sobald ein Gast Übernachtung und Frühstück gebucht hat, wird die Übernachtung in der Rechnung immer als ‘Unterkunft Paket’ bezeichnet.Manche Firmen möchten dies nur rein als Übernachtung oder Logis ausgewiesen haben ohne das Wort ‘Paket’. In solchen Fallen stornieren wir alles und buchen es manuell im Abrechnungsfenster nochmal auf dann wird es nicht als Unterkunftspaket angezeigt.Das ist natürlich bei größeren Rechnungen sehr aufwendig. Hat jemand zufällig eine andere Lösung? LGNina
