There are times when you may be experiencing issues with your MyPMS software that can be fixed by clearing the Cache in your website browsers.  Typically, browser cache issues affect the system's ability to perform certain tasks.

These issues include:

  • Saving and completing a new booking
  • Check-in or Check-out of a Guest
  • Cancelling a booking
  • Confirming a booking
  • Problems with the EZ search function.

If you are experiencing any of these issues, then try clearing the cache in your browser and logging back into MyPMS.

The steps to clear the cache vary by browser. We recommend either Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox and have provided the steps for clearing the cache here. Steps may differ on previous versions and on other browsers which can be easily found by searching for "clearing cache" for a specific browser in a search engine.
