This transaction is used to select temporary settlements. Temporary settlements are completely advised settlements of the application, that are stored permanently and can be used as a basis for a final settlement later on. Own or foreign fees can optionally be advised or just be marked internally. Advised fees are inherent parts of the temporary settlement and can only be settled via a final settlement created from this temporary settlement. Internally marked fees can be settled independently at any time. Temporary settlements are created via the standard settlement panel. In the upper part of the settlement panel it is defined, whether it is a 'temporary' or a 'final' settlement. A settlement can either be temporary or final. For example, it is not possible to settle fees with a party directly in a temporary settlement.
