This latest release introduces several enhancements, as well as some important bug fixes, all of which are detailed below and in MyPMS Release Notes - October 5, 2016.

Service downtime will be no more than 30 minutes, so please plan accordingly. There is nothing you need to do to prepare for this update. However, we do recommend printing out any registration letters for guests who are checking in late.

A notice of the scheduled downtime will be posted for all MyPMS Users on the Front Desk in the "System Messages" area prior to service interruption.

Important Update

In this latest release we have implemented a three-year window on MyPMS Reservations. This limits how far Individual and Group Bookings reservations can be entered into MyPMS. Therefore, the system will only allow you to enter bookings three years in advance. Please let us know if you have any questions.


We are pleased to announce that the following software bugs were fixed in this release:

  1. Tax exempt report now includes bookings paid by Direct Bill.
  2. Additional Taxes now calculates 3 decimals places
  3. Booking Comments with extra carriage return does not prevent new bookings or saving bookings.
  4. Setting a room to 'Select from List' retains the room type assignment.
