Danish term or phrase: nota med et tilgodehavende
What should a "nota med et tilgodehavende" be, as contrasted with a credit memo?

(I realise that there is very limited context here; but that is the point. I am looking to determine if this is ambiguous, or sufficiently precise to have a singular meaning.)
