The Settlement Quota feature in CNY Settlement allows merchants to view and manage the amount available for creating CNY Settlement orders. Subotiz Accounts calculates the quota based on eligible orders from authorized stores to support the required foreign exchange declaration. Once approved, the corresponding amount is automatically added to the available settlement quota and can be used to create CNY Settlement orders.
What Is a Settlement Quota
A settlement quota is the maximum amount currently available for creating CNY Settlement orders.
The system calculates the available settlement quota based on eligible orders submitted for settlement declaration. Each merchant’s available quota varies based on store orders, declaration records, and review results.
The available settlement quota is updated continuously as additional orders are approved.
