Use this page for settlement batch behavior, reconciliation fields, payout status, and support escalation paths.
{% figure src="/docs-images/gitbook-markets-settlements.png" alt="GitBook market settlements page" caption="The market settlements guide gives organizers a public reference for reconciliation language, payout states, and escalation paths before they move into the markets app or support workflows." /%}
## What to document
Explain how organizers review settlement batches, what reconciliation fields readers should understand, and where payout or discrepancy questions are expected to go.
## Support path
If a settlement issue needs intervention, document whether the next step is an organizer action, an admin escalation, or a payout-provider follow-up instead of leaving the path ambiguous.
