A liability is something you "owe" another person or company. A credit liability "usually" refers to a credit you owe, for example, an account payable may be classified as a "credit liability". Let's say your company purchased a computer system on credit, the balance you owe for the purchase is your "credit liability."
This is a distinction between other liabilities the company owes, such as Salaries Payable, Income Taxes Payable, etc, as these "payable accounts" are generally not of the "credit line", just a debt owed. Credit Liability is generally something the company owes by way of "credit", this does not include other operating expenses.
