Validation rules

BR-DE-CVD-06-b

A line with the item attribute 'cva' (BT-160) must carry exactly one CVD-scheme item classification (BT-158).

Rule: BR-DE-CVD-06-b — official EN 16931 / XRechnung rule
Severity: error
Detected by: tier 3 — KoSIT validator (authoritative)
Reachability: Only reachable when validating your own XML — normbill-generated documents cannot trigger it

Belongs to the 'XRechnung CVD' sibling CIUS (Clean Vehicle Directive) — a separate CustomizationID normbill never generates; reachable only for CVD XML submitted to /v1/invoices/validate.

How to fix it

Add the CVD classification to the line carrying the 'cva' attribute.
