Once you reconcile a service card for the month, it will not reappear.  If you do a second import, only cards with new values will display. 

Once you have set up your import with Synthesize, we will remember your previous settings allowing you to upload the latest CSV and reconcile the changes monthly. 

Before uploading your CSV usage each month, it is recommended to perform a PSA Sync. This will ensure that your PSA usage is accurate.


 

Step 1: Configure an Import Profile
