What it does
Settle a credit note into the customer’s house account — the credit lands on their AR balance.
SETTLE an ISSUED CreditNote against the customer's AR: gates the note issued (closed/voided refuse CONFLICT/IMMUTABLE) + the note-order's (org × cc) ACTIVE enablement + the currency law + |totalDeltaMinor| ≤ arBalanceMinor (CONFLICT/INSUFFICIENT_AR_BALANCE) → ONE transaction {the credit_memo AREntry (ref creditNoteId) + the conditioned decrement/frontier + settlementState unsettled→settled + the FSM flip issued→closed via system:delta_settled} — the FIRST corrective-note close producer. The MONEY-settle lane stays the NAMED deferral (the refund↔note linkage ruling). Requires the unrestricted capability + the record's CURRENT revision.
What happens
Posts the AR entry; the note stops being outstanding.

Returns
CreditNote CreditNote! — A CreditNote — the REDUCING corrective document for an issued, immutable Invoice: a NEW document carrying the SIGNED delta (every figure strictly NEGATIVE — the sign lives on the document), never an edit. The tax delta recomputes over the invoice line's CAPTURED components (a correction re-prices the SAME fact, not a new sourcing) — a FULL credit mirrors the original figures EXACTLY (the sign-symmetric arms). Over-credit refuses per line STRICT (taxableBase + Σ prior signed deltas ≥ 0). NO inventory movement — a goods-back is a Return. AR effects =; fiscalization seq/sig = (named deferrals).
