MSP billing problem

Pax8 and ConnectWise License Counts Not Matching?

When Pax8 license quantities and ConnectWise billed quantities do not line up, MSP teams need a practical way to review the difference before the invoice is finalized.

1

Why this billing mismatch happens

Pax8 may show current subscription, SKU, tenant, or license quantities while ConnectWise remains the PSA source for agreement additions, recurring services, and invoice quantities. If one system changes before the other is reviewed, the billing count can become stale.

The mismatch does not always mean the invoice is wrong. It can also point to client mapping, tenant naming, SKU grouping, service mapping, or timing questions that need review before billing decisions are made.
