When you create your envelope, the list of unused transactions will appear to be brought into a new PCard Envelope. You may follow the instructions from this article to complete the process: How to: Submit a Prepaid Card Envelope

 

NOTE: When using PEX, and auto-imported transactions, funding transactions will auto-import into GreenSlate, and appear from General Ledger screen, as unposted transactions. Once posted, the CP Custodian is credited, and the CP Account is debited. 

2) If you are using the Entry Window Template for Copy/Paste:

You must request of GreenSlate Support that the Auto-imported transactions, and auto-reconciliation features be disabled, as they may be enabled, by default. 

Step 1: Copy and paste data from envelopes exported from PEX CSV file to our GreenSlate Entry Window Template.

Step 2: Select All from the excel file, and COPY.

Step 3: Click the + to the right of PCard Envelopes on the left navigation.

Step 6: (Optional) If you wish to indicate, replenishment of the prepaid card account balance, any replenishment amount, OR the total of the detail lines may be added in the Reimburse Amount field. This will create a credit and a debit line automatically to move funds back to the PEX vendor's account. With PEX, funding transactions happen manually when auto-imported transactions are disabled, so replenishment of cards is a manual process, and this method is one way to accomplish this.

PRO TIP: In the Envelope FILES area, upload a PDF version of your PEX Envelope, so it may be virtually paperclipped to this transaction's PDF in GreenSlate!
