You view your active billing automations in Mews Operations to confirm that automated billing rules apply correctly to guest reservations. You do this when you need to check which items are routing automatically and verify that bills reflect the correct ownership. You can view this information during the reservation process, or after you create the reservation, in the Reservation summary panel or the Billing screen. 

 

In this article, you can learn about how to: 

• Identify when billing automation is applied 
• View billing automation details 
• Verify items routed by automation 

 

Identify when billing automation is applied 

1. In Mews Operations, go to the main menu  >Reservations screen. 
2. Select a reservation. 
3. During the reservation process, look for the notification that indicates billing automation is applied. 
   • The notification appears when the reservation meets the automation’s conditions. 
   • The notification differs depending on the automation timing: 
     • Continuous: This reservation is continuously updated by the {Billing Automation name} billing automation. 
     • Recurring: This reservation is periodically updated by the {Billing Automation name} billing automation. 

You can now identify when a billing automation applies to a reservation.
