You can add products specific to the Professional Security Association (PSA) list of products from their online store to the SI Catalog.

To add products, go to the Product Explorer and click Library > Add From. This opens the Add Products From Library interface.

Here, click the PSA button.

A list of all PSA manufacturers and categories will display on the left side of the dialog, allowing you to filter.

One method to download the products displayed on the page is to use the Download button on the ribbon, where you can choose Selected or All.

You can also select the products you wish to download and click the Download button next to one of the selected products.

Another option is to select the products you want to download and drag them over to the Downloads section on the right side of the interface.

Use Shift or Ctrl on your keyboard to select multiple products.

You can choose what fields you want to download (the default is all fields) and a few other options.

Mark downloaded products as approved

This option is checked by default. You may want to uncheck this to easily find products in your catalog that you have not yet reviewed.

This option is checked by default. Having this checked will not overwrite a locally populated field with a blank field from the PSA Library when updating a product you have previously downloaded.

Download product thumbnail(s)

This will download the JPG thumbnail image for products.

To update your pricing from PSA, you must register with PSA.

Clicking Register will open the following form, where you can enter your Customer ID and Access Key. You can obtain your Customer ID and Access Key by joining PSA at www.psasecurity.com.

After downloading the products, you will be prompted to update your pricing from PSA. The data field that will be updated for your PSA products is unit cost.

Here, you can choose to set an automatic schedule for when to update the pricing for your PSA products, choose which Price Types you want to update, or manually update at any time by clicking the Update PSA Prices button.

You can access this dialog anytime via the Schedule Price Updates button on the ribbon.
