BR-S-1 — Standard-rated item without matching VAT breakdown (category S)
- Standard: EN16931
- Severity: fatal
- Business Terms: BT-151, BT-95, BT-102, BT-118
Meaning
If an invoice has a line, a document-level allowance or charge whose VAT category code (BT-151, BT-95 or BT-102) is "S" (Standard rated), the VAT breakdown (BG-23) must contain at least one category code (BT-118) equal to "S". This is a format consistency requirement on the category codes.
Possible causes
- A line / allowance / charge uses category S, yet no TaxSubtotal group has BT-118 = S.
How to fix it
- Add a cac:TaxTotal/cac:TaxSubtotal group whose cac:TaxCategory/cbc:ID = 'S' (BT-118).
