      1. Map your accounts by dragging the card from Synthesize on the left to DNSFilter on the right. When complete, press Next. 
        1. We have auto-mapped any that are exact matches. You can toggle the hide mapped button to see those we auto-mapped. The remaining can be searched by pressing the filter button or typing in the Synthesize search bar. 
      2. Map your services by dragging the card from Synthesize on the left to DNSFilter on the right. When complete, press Next. 
        1. Services can be searched by pressing the filter button or typing in the Synthesize search bar.

        See tips and tricks for mapping in the tool: How to map within Synthesize.  

      A pop-up will inform you that the setup is complete and that the syncing of usage can take a few seconds to several minutes.

      Step 4: Reconcile

      1. You are now ready to start reconciling.      
      2. To view only that vendor's results, you can select the filter option and choose the vendor to display the imported values and reconcile.

      1. Login to Synthesize and navigate to the Integrations tab.
      2. Filter to Connected Integrations
      3. Select the DNSFilter card and click Configure.
