Thanks for your help. I found out that, given the context, it means exceeding a credit limit. If it were a bank account (rather than a line of credit), it would be an overdraft.

4 hrs confidence:

overallotment

Explanation:
In the context of hotels:

Every hotel can have a general allotment different every day or period in the year, but also can have private allotments dedicated to privileged client agencies. System allows to inflate the total allotment assigned in order to not waste it splitting the rooms in too many bags. But Parsys controls the number of rooms sold in every day in order to avoid overallotment, or to warn the administrator if it occurs.

May also apply to money and financial instruments.
