A credit forgives a portion of debt on a line of credit (LOC) account. Note the following when editing a credit transaction:

• The LineOfCreditCreditTransactions object holds credit information. This object is nested within the LineOfCredits entity.
• Credits cannot be applied before the account's open date or to previous billing cycles. Attempting to do so will result in a 409 error.
• Credits are applied broadly to an LOC account instead a specific Bucket. As a result, credits affect the account's total balance.

For an example of how logging a credit works within the UI, take a look at our "Credits" help article.
