In this release, we've shifted from the naming convention of MYCE Quotes to Bookings. Rather than searching for "MYCE Quotes" in the navigation, you can type “Bookings”. We've also included updates to field labels on the booking screen and related data like Products and Events - more details on this below.
On the booking, a big change throughout the user experience is changing "Pax'' as “Guests”. You will also notice that:
In the PMS section, these are PMS Agency Account and PMS Company Account. Check out the knowledge base for a refresher on PMS Accounts.
When viewing the related section of the booking, there are new labels as well:
Finally, we updated the Group Booking label to "Room Block Manager." Within the Room Block Manager, rather than adding hotel rooms, you'll add Guest Rooms. A new scroll bar was added to the list of available room types shown when splitting a package to help you see the complete list and allocate room types more efficiently.
All financial fields have been grouped into a finance section and notes fields to a notes section to help you find the data you need quickly.
Moving on to the guest room management, you will see the shift from "Quote Hotel Room" to "Guest Room" and "Quote Hotel Room Price" to "Nightly Rate." Since a guest room of a single room type and occupancy type can have a different rate for each night of say a multi-night stay, we create a nightly rate record for each night of the stay.
When you are viewing a booking, there is now a list of Guest Rooms. Clicking into a guest room, you'll see that each guest room is connected to a Booking for a room type. Each guest room also has an arrival and departure date as well as a Cutoff Date (formerly Release Date).
When viewing a product on a booking, there are a few naming changes to note:
Additional filtering has also been added based on product type so you will only see products of type combo on the related combo items list.
Check out the knowledge base for a refresher on combo products. If, as an admin, you are creating a product of type combo, now you can add "Combo Items" to that Combo Product. Each Combo Item connects a product to the parent Combo Product.
Consistent with the language on the Function Diary (previously Scheduler), "Quote Meetings Rooms" will now be "Booking Events."
In addition to seeing the related list on the booking for Booking Events, there are some additional changes you'll see now when editing an event:
When you add a package to a Booking, you'll now notice that instead of "Quote Package," you add a “Booking Package”. A Booking Package contains Booking Package Items.
When creating function spaces, you'll notice that "Parent Resource" is now “Function Diary Parent Space".
You’ll also notice when managing function spaces that “Resource Groups” are now “Combination Spaces”.
We are officially relabeling the Function Sheet to BEO. In addition to this change, you'll see the following:
For customers integrated to Mews PMS, Thynk sends both a Block and Mews Block Inventories to the PMS. We have renamed "Madjustments" to "Mews Block Inventories."
When viewing an inventory record, you'll also notice:
Check out the knowledge base for a refresher on Rooming Lists.
We understand that at the time of uploading a rooming list, you may need to make changes to the reservation dates directly on the upload. You are now able to change the arrival and departure dates of reservations via the rooming list upload in Thynk, as long as:
