Validation rules

BR-64

An item standard identifier (BT-157) has no scheme identifier.

Rule: BR-64 — official EN 16931 / XRechnung rule
Severity: error
Business term: BT-157 — Item standard identifier
Field in your JSON: invoice.lines[*].standard_item_id.id
Detected by: tier 3 — KoSIT validator (authoritative)
Reachability: Not expressible through the normbill invoice model — documented for completeness

The request schema requires standard_item_id.scheme whenever standard_item_id is set; the serializer always writes schemeID.

How to fix it

Set the schemeID attribute on cac:StandardItemIdentification/cbc:ID (e.g. 0160 for GTIN).

BR-64 auf Deutsch — was bedeutet der Fehler?

Einer Artikel-Standardkennung (BT-157) fehlt die Schema-Kennung.

So beheben Sie den Fehler

Setzen Sie das schemeID-Attribut auf cac:StandardItemIdentification/cbc:ID (z. B. 0160 für GTIN). Über normbill ist standard_item_id.scheme Pflicht.
