Map Accounts and Services

- For accounts not automatically matched:
- Use the filter button beside the account names on the right, or
- Use the search bar on the left to find PSA accounts.
- Drag and drop the PSA accounts from the left to match them with vendor accounts on the right.
-
Proceed to Service Mapping
- Once accounts are mapped, click "Next" to access the Service Mapping step.
- Align services or products from your PSA, displayed on the left, with the corresponding vendor services or SKUs on the right. For ConnectWise PSA users, search by Product ID.

- After mapping the services, click "Next".
