Central Bank Creator

The central bank creator requests new wholesale CBDC supply and transfers available value to eligible central bank recipients.

The central bank creator can request new supply and transfer available value to permitted recipients. The creator cannot approve their own creation requests, change account limits, assign roles, or change setup.

Before you can complete central bank creator tasks, you must have an eligible active CBDC account linked to your wallet. You must be a member of the Central Bank Creator application group with assigned minter role. There must also be a user who is an eligible manager approver with the escrow role, and a user with an eligible recipient account for direct transfers.

Typically the central bank creator completes tasks in the following order.

  1. Confirm the creator account is active and review the available balance.
  2. Select Create Tokens, enter the quantity, and optionally add a memo. If several eligible managers are available, choose the intended approver; if only one is available, the application uses that person automatically or shows the only available value.
  3. Submit the request and record its request or transaction ID.
  4. Wait for the central bank manager to approve or reject the request.
  5. After approval, refresh the creator page and confirm that the balance and history are updated.
  6. Select Issue beside the intended eligible recipient, confirm the recipient user, optionally enable and select a purpose, enter the quantity, and submit the direct transfer.
  7. Refresh history and confirm the transfer status and transaction ID.

The following tasks are typical ones that a central bank creator completes.

Request Token Creation

  1. Select Create Tokens. The Create CBDC Token Request window is displayed.
  2. Enter a Quantity and an optional Memo. If multiple eligible managers are available, select an Approver User ID.
  3. Select Request Mint. The request is sent for manager approval.

Issue Tokens

  1. Select Issue on an eligible recipient card. The Transfer window is displayed.
  2. Verify the recipient organization for Transfer Token To and the recipient for To User ID, and enter a Quantity. Optionally, select Purpose and then select one of the configured purposes.
  3. Select Transfer. The transaction runs and value is sent directly to the specified recipient.

Troubleshooting

If no approver is available, ask the central bank administrator to verify active manager accounts and escrow roles. If an amount is rejected, check the positive value, decimal precision, balance, and limits. If a request remains pending, give the request ID to the selected manager. If the account is inactive, ask the central bank administrator to review its status.
