# Checking settlement window details The **Settlement Windows** page allows you to: * search for settlement windows based on multiple search criteria * close an open settlement window * settle a single window or settle multiple windows at once ::: tip NOTE Remember that settling must follow this procedure: * Close the settlement window that you want to settle. * Settle closed window(s) of your choice. This creates a new settlement. * Send settlement reports to DFSPs and the settlement bank, and obtain a confirmation from the bank that it has moved money in accordance with the report. * Finalize the new settlement created in Step 2. Given that closing a window and initiating settlement by settling select windows are integral part of the settlement process, they are described in a section dedicated to [settling](https://mojaloop.gitbook.io/mojaloop/docs/adoption/huboperations/portalv2/settling). ::: A settlement window is a time period between two successive settlements. It has a start time and an end time, and any transfers that go through (and reach a `"COMMITTED"` state) during the time that the settlement window is open will be settled in bulk after the settlement window has closed. Transfers that take place in the same settlement window are settled in batch after the end of the settlement window. To access the **Settlement Windows** page, go to **Settlement** > **Settlement Windows**. ![Managing settlement windows](https://960632945-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-LXhOIEoqtInj89WmQ_Q%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-fc27396472e9718bb541b6200b48893d74eb36b5%2Fsettlement_window_mgmt.png?alt=media) The **Settlement Windows** page provides a list of settlement windows that you can filter using various search criteria: * **Date**: Provides a drop-down list of time ranges. The default value is **Today**.\ \ The **Clear** option allows you to remove any date filters already applied. * **From** and **To**: Displays the start time and end time of the time range selected in the **Date** field.

A window can only be settled once the settlement bank has confirmed that all the participant DFSPs that engaged in transfers in the settlement window have settled their payments. * **Settled**: The settlement bank has confirmed that all the affected DFSPs have settled their obligations towards one another.
