Validation rules

PEPPOL-EN16931-R041

An allowance/charge percentage is present, so its base amount must be provided as well.

Rule
PEPPOL-EN16931-R041official EN 16931 / XRechnung rule
Severity
error
Detected by
tier 3 — KoSIT validator (authoritative)
Reachability
Triggerable from your request JSON (generate & validate)

The request schema allows amount + percent without base_amount; the serializer then writes a percentage without a base, which this rule rejects.

How to fix it

Set the allowance/charge base_amount, or remove the percent.

PEPPOL-EN16931-R041 auf Deutsch — was bedeutet der Fehler?

Ein Prozentsatz ist angegeben, dann muss auch der Grundbetrag des Nachlasses/Zuschlags übermittelt werden.

So beheben Sie den Fehler

Setzen Sie base_amount — oder entfernen Sie percent.
