Translating a manuscript that uses "cupo" in a way I'm not used to. Am using "quota" so far but am wondering if there's a better word. (I've looked at the other Proz answers and don't see it there either...unless perhaps "allotment"? Still not thrilled with it.)

vacancy/vacancies
I think "vacancies" would fit in this context, the same word "vacantes" would fit into Spanish
