disagree  Chris S: No, I think this is a line of credit secured against the sales ledger, not an accounting entry

Examples of usage for a line of credit:

http://www.danskebank.se/PDF/OmBanken/DanskeBankArsoversikt2... ""Fakturabelåningskrediter finns
hos oss i tre varianter, nämligen
Fakturabelåning, Fakturakredit och
Reskontrakredit."

http://www.digitalvision.se/downloads/Preliminarrekonstrukti... Bolagets kvarvarande finansieringsmöjlighet har varit den
reskontrakredit som Bolaget haft hos sin bank genom belåning av kundfordringar.

The previous KudoZ answer was a guess.

disagree  Anna Herbst: "Man ska inte tro, man ska veta" - see existing KudoZ answer - my note above.

  -> Bättre att tro än att ta fel... Every single Google hit for reskontrakredit refers to a line of credit (see my note above). I totally understand your logic but the usage simply does not support your suggestion.
