It is both - one is the currency name (like Aussie Dollar), while one is the primary or base unit of currency (like cents or dollars here).
Renminbi is the name of the currency, translated as "the people's currency", while the Yuan is the unit for prices... but is used by most Westerners as the name of the currency, because it is easier (and more objective as it is less political).
As such, both RMB (for Renminbi) and CNY (for Chinese Yuan) are used as the abbreviation of the currency (like AU$).
