Mapping Pax8 Companies to Clients​

Using the Map Pax8 Dialog​

  1. Click Map Pax8 in the header
  2. The mapping dialog shows:
    • Your PanelOne clients on one side
    • Available Pax8 companies on the other
  3. Match each Pax8 company to its PanelOne client
  4. Click Save

Creating a Company in Pax8​

If a client doesn't have a Pax8 company yet:

  1. Click the Create in Pax8 dropdown
  2. Select the PanelOne client (only clients without a Pax8 mapping are shown)
  3. Enter or confirm the company name
  4. Click Create & Link
  5. PanelOne creates the company in Pax8 and links it to the client

Note: After creation, you'll need to add contacts in the Pax8 portal to activate the company before adding subscriptions.


Permission Gate​

Certain actions require the billing.subscriptions.manage permission:

  • Editing subscription quantities
  • Syncing from Pax8
  • Mapping companies
  • Creating companies

If you don't have this permission, these buttons won't appear.


Tips & Best Practices​

  • Map all Pax8 companies immediately after connecting — Unmapped subscriptions show as "Unmapped"
  • Use the expiry filter to catch subscriptions about to expire — Contact clients before renewals
  • Monitor "Unmapped" subscriptions — These indicate Pax8 companies that haven't been linked to clients
  • Sync regularly — Run a sync after making changes in the Pax8 portal
  • Use licensing data for billing reconciliation — Cross-reference with BillingOne's reconciliation feature
