Enhanced Multi-Property Dashboard with Cross-Property Reporting
As a user managing multiple properties within RMS Cloud, it would be incredibly helpful to have an enhanced multi-property dashboard that offers centralized access to cross-property reporting, real-time performance metrics, and combined occupancy data.
Currently, navigating between properties and manually pulling individual reports can be time-consuming. Having a unified view would improve operational efficiency and provide better insight for corporate-level management.

Make invoices more editable eg add room type & remove room number
We are writing to request the addition of a feature that allows us to edit guest invoices or invoice settings.
For us specifically the addition of room types and the removal of room numbers from guest invoices.
Visible room numbers have been causing complications, particularly with guest expectations prior to arrival. This is especially problematic for group bookings and events such as weddings, where guests often assume that the room number shown is fixed and confirmed. This has led to disputes and logistical challenges on-site when changes to room allocations are necessary due to operational needs.
We believe having the…

Include a tokenization option on the receipt screen.
On the receipt screen, provide the option to tokenize the credit card when it is used for the first time. It would save one or two steps, particularly when dealing with inexperienced operators or when you're pressed for time to accept the payment. Tokenization would eliminate the need for a unique action.
Sincerely,

The Owner Bank Details field should be cleared of special characters.
In the Owners Bank Account field, disable the usage of special characters. Recently, we encountered an ABA file that kept failing to upload to the bank. We were simply receiving the error that a line included too many characters. We discovered one errant apostrophe after spending hours and hours removing the letters in this area. This character is not acceptable to the bank.
Thanks,

Remove Deposit field on account column
We would like to be able to remove the deposit and dep req by field from the account column as per phone conversation with your team it has nothing to do if they booking has been paid already or not. Apparently it will always show that amount even if paid which can be confustion for our reception team. It would be great in general to be able to adjust the account column to our needs.

Not allowing bookings to leave short undesirable vacancies
I recently booked event tickets on Ticketmaster and it wouldn't allow me to leave a single vacant seat.
I thought this would be valuable for accommodation so that at a time where a 1 night stay is not desired a booking won't be allowed to be made if it leaves a 1 night gap between it and the departure of the previous booking.
In a way it would be a dynamic software controlled closure to arrival/closure to departure which adapts depending upon the known minimum length of stay and the pre-existing bookings.1 vote -
Out of Service for individual Maintenance Tickets
It would be fantastic to have the ability to control which maintenance orders are included in the occupancy calculation and which ones are not.
Currently, you can switch it for the entire property, but for strata title, when a room is going in or out of the inventory pool it is traditionally made available to sell several weeks in advance to be able to start selling the room, however this starts to skew occupancy immediately.
Also useful for longer term renovations that should not be reported to STR.

Have a way to pre-fill new bookings with info based on "Travel Agent" field
All ATO bookings are currently coming with the correct "Travel Agent" info.
There should be a way to automate things like "Bkg Source", "Meal Plan", "Hide Rate On Correspondence", based on what "Travel Agent" the booking is made from.
Some of these can be automated from "Company" field, but that has to also be manually put into the system, when I'm trying to have to make a minimum user input possible.
Thank you!

categorise special events with a set colour
Would be good to be able to have a category for special events to chose, which would then associate a specific colour for it so it's easily identified at the top of a chart.
For example, school holidays are a grey colour; long weekends are a light purple.
Being able to categorise and have that set against a special event grouping would make it a more efficient use of that function for easy visibility for all users.

Automated annual expenses to owners
Would be great to have automated annual expense drop onto owner statements.
We already use the monthly frequency, and other options under EOM expenses, but it would be useful to have yearly as an option, as we manually do annual charges through the bulk charges function.

Housekeeping - departure block based on time
We currently have a departure block under Housekeeping for some properties that have longer cleaner, and it's not possible for a same day arrival.
It is an option to add another type departure block that would apply for all properties (whether owner or guest booking) when the departure time is after 12pm, it automatically puts in a departure block so that someone cannot arrive that same day, as it won't be serviced?
For example, an owner booking to 4pm, means a guest cannot arrive that day, and we are manually placing a cleaner block.

Monies Held In Trust report - ability to customise more
We use the Monies Held In Trust report, and I'm then doing sorting and filtering in the downloaded excel file.
Can there be option to add on extra customisation options especially around grouping in the report selections (there is only apart from the "Sort by" and "Group by"), so that they can be grouped by status, eg cancelled, departed; or by account type, eg client or reservation?

Option for owner to provided updated insurance details & upload new CoC in portal
Just wondering if it's possible as a future enhancement that owners can update their insurance details (expiry date, insurance provider etc) which would fill to the matching fields in their RMS clients?
And it would be great it they could upload the CoC document also, which then records onto their correspondence tab.
Or, have the ability for trigger setup to send an insurance reminder document (we currently do all this manually), with the trigger able to read the date of insurance expiry in the owner client record and fire based upon that date (for example, send 7 days prior to…

Automate filling the 'reason for visit' as business/work field when a Company is selected
Would love to see functionality that connects the Company Field in a reservation with the Reason-For-Visit field so that it could automatically fill based upon a set action
For example, one of our reasons for visit is Business/Work, and often this is tied to the use of the Company field.
There should be a way to have a rule that says: if there is a Company entered, then the reason for visit is Business/Work ; and this fills out the field without having to select anything in the drop down.

Adding Nationality column in In/Out movements (Checked out)
It would be good to add the Nationality column as part of client's details who checked out. It's included in arriving and In House Client so why not in Checked out? It would be good to know the nationalities who booked with us in the past and can be used for geomarketing campaigns.

Check Out button on Guest Portal link so guests can easily check themselves out
There needs to be a Check Out button on the main screen to select in the Guest Portal link. We send our guests a Check Out link via SMS but not many seem to be able to figure out how to check out! They need to click on the Settings cog, to then see the Check Out option. The only see Pay Total (all our guests pay 7 days prior so they don't click this as they have already paid) and Details tab on the main screen.

To skip the shopping cart and proceed directly to checkout, add an IBE Query String.
The IBE shopping cart is helpful for reserving multiple rooms, but it is not very user-friendly for booking only one hotel, which accounts for the great majority of online reservations.
We frequently receive calls from guests who are unable to conclude their reservation because they are unable to figure it out. Other instances include IBE pencil reservations depleting inventory as guests simply keep adding rooms to the cart while believing it isn't working.
It would be fantastic if we could utilize a URL query string to get around the shopping cart, as an alternative to going back to the more…
