# Reserve vs Component Fulfillment

When a redemption request is fulfilled, the system supports two separate fulfillment paths, each impacting the reserve and component balances differently:

1. **`Node.fulfillRedeemFromReserve`**\
   Fulfills the redemption directly from available cash reserves without liquidating components. This approach may result in current cash reserves dropping below the target reserve level.
2. **`Router.fulfillRedeemRequest`**\
   Fulfills the redemption by liquidating component holdings to maintain ideal cash reserve levels. However, this reduces the component balance, potentially leaving it below its target allocation. 

**Important:** Developers and users should understand these distinct paths clearly, as each has implications for cash reserve management, component allocations, and reinvestment capabilities.
