About the BR family
Core invoice rules. These govern the fields every EN 16931 invoice must carry, regardless of VAT treatment or country.
Related rules
A validator reports one code at a time. These check the same fields, so they are the ones most likely to fire on the same invoice.
- BR-33 Each Document level allowance (BG-20) shall have a Document level allowance reason (BT-97) or a Document level allowance reason code (BT-98).
- BR-CO-05 Document level allowance reason code (BT-98) and Document level allowance reason (BT-97) shall indicate the same type of allowance.
- BR-CO-21 Each Document level allowance (BG-20) shall contain a Document level allowance reason (BT-97) or a Document level allowance reason code (BT-98), or both.
