Usually I see postings within a few (3) days after the end of the train trip (not your trip). I don't know if scanning has changed the processing cycle, but it used to be the train had to reach the end if its journey before everything was put through. So in my case taking the CZ from SAC to RNO, points didn't post until a few days after the train reached CHI.

Keep your ticket number handy and any other "evidence" (like parking receipts, cafe car receipts, etc.) until it posts.
