Optional start of the period during which this limit may be considered applicable.
valid_until
Optional end of the period during which this limit may be considered applicable.

metadata
Free-form metadata associated with the limit or movement according to the

credit_limit
Canonical credit limit created with its source, validity period, and active/inactive status.
Behavior
The limit becomes an independent canonical resource. Multiple limits from different sources may coexist; the actually available limit is resolved separately by an explicit strategy.
Key point The credit ledger retains facts as movements. A correction produces a new explicit movement instead of silently rewriting a historical fact.
Limits and responsibilities
- Creating a limit neither consumes nor by itself authorizes exposure.
- An inactive or out-of-period limit must not contribute to the effective limit.
- The source describes who owns the limit decision; it must not be used as a free-form tag.
