Load range for history: Monthly=bFiskur®︎ will read one month of history from the SAT at a time Weekly=bFiskur®︎ will read one week of history from the SAT at a time The suggested optimal value is Monthly. Note: the value depends on the volume your company handles. Use monthly if the total sum of the number of issued + received CFDIs + payment complements + payroll receipts + waybills does not exceed 200,000 CFDIs. If your company exceeds 200,000 total CFDIs per month then use weekly.

If you do not want bFiskur®︎ to download notifications, use No.
