Message to the sender
Subject: Invoice {invoiceNumber} – sum of sub-lines
Hello,
Thank you for your invoice {invoiceNumber} dated {issueDate}. Our check flagged that the net amount of one line does not equal the sum of its sub-lines (rule BR-DEX-02). Could you please check the amounts and send a corrected invoice if necessary?
Kind regardsExample
A line shows a net amount of EUR 100.00, while its two direct sub-lines show EUR 40.00 and EUR 50.00. If the sub-lines fully reflect the actual charges, the parent line net amount is EUR 90.00.
