Synchronize Data: Toshiba GSP Sync

The Toshiba GSP Sync Settings page is available from the Synchronize Module located on the Main Admin page.

The Toshiba GSP Sync Settings page lists the Main Dealer and each sub-dealer account (defined as an account with a dealer user assigned as the primary contact) as a separate row in the account grid.  This allows you to configure each with different Toshiba GSP server connection settings and push frequencies.  Placing a check in the appropriate Select row, performs a PUSH sync with all child accounts.  All sub-dealer accounts by default inherit the Toshiba GSP server connection settings configured for the Main Dealer, unless otherwise specified.

Optionally, you can combine the Central Meter Validation results, allowing the meters extracted using Onsite, WebAudit or Viewer to be pre-approved by either the end-user or dealer employee prior to a PUSH; defined as the submission of data to Toshiba's GSP.  This process helps to reduce DSO (Day-Sales-Outstanding) by providing accurate and timely billing.

If FMAudit Central is offline and misses multiple syncs, then it only performs the last scheduled sync when it comes back online.

Toshiba GSP Server Connection Settings
Minimally, the Main Dealer account requires the server connection settings to be specified.  To view another sub-dealer account and/or modify these settings, select the sub-dealer account from the Dealer Account drop-down list.  Modifying the Toshiba GSP Server Connection Settings and selecting the Save Connection Settings button, applies those settings to the current sub-dealer account and all child accounts, no longer inheriting the settings from the Main Dealer.

Service Email
The service email settings allows you to specify the recipient, subject and message of the email.  The default Toshiba GSP email is meters@tabs.toshiba.com.

XML Limit
The XML device limit setting allows you to specify the maximum number of devices per XML file.  A separate email is generated for each XML submission.  The default is 255.

Meter Name Mapping
FMAudit products use static meter names and are mapped to Toshiba's meter naming convention.

Managed Devices
Devices must be flagged in Central as Managed Devices using the Device Management Views page, to be included in a meter submission to Toshiba's GSP.  The Serial Number is the primary value used to match up the device from Central to Toshiba's GSP.  The Serial Number may be edited in Central using the same Device Management Views page.

Push Frequency
The push frequency may be configured as appropriate, i.e. Push meters from Central every 1 day.  These settings apply to all child accounts.  Each push will submit the updated meters since the last interval, i.e. previous day.  To define the meter submission frequency on a per-account basis, refer to the Account Settings page.

Send results via email
With this option checked, a summary email will be sent to the selected contact upon completion of a push to Toshiba's GSP.
