A new Gradebook column will appear at the end of the Gradebook containing the Scantron Scores.  The column name will be labeled the same thing as the .csv file name.  If desired, you can click on the column header > Edit > Change the name, points or due date > Save.  Post the grades when ready to share with your students.
