Tax amount of category S is wrong (BR-S-9)
- Standard: EN 16931
- Severity: error
- Affected fields: BT-117, BT-118, BT-116, BT-119
Meaning
In a category S breakdown, the tax amount (BT-117) must equal the taxable amount (BT-116) times the rate (BT-119) divided by 100. The rule accepts differences below 1.00 in the invoice currency.
Original text of the rule
The VAT category tax amount (BT-117) in a VAT breakdown (BG-23) where VAT category code (BT-118) is "Standard rated" shall equal the VAT category taxable amount (BT-116) multiplied by the VAT category rate (BT-119).
Possible causes
- The tax amount or the taxable amount was edited by hand.
- The tax amount was computed with a different rate than the one stated.
How to fix it
- In your invoicing software, recalculate the tax amounts and create the invoice again.
- In the XML: set BT-117 = BT-116 × BT-119 / 100, rounded to two decimals (UBL cbc:TaxAmount, CII ram:CalculatedAmount).
