Allowance or charge is not technically marked correctly · PEPPOL-EN16931-R043-1

  • Severity · Error
  • Applies to · CII
  • Editorial review pending

Every allowance or charge carries an indicator saying whether it is a deduction or an addition. Technically this indicator must be exactly true (charge) or false (allowance); other spellings such as 1, 0, TRUE or yes are not allowed. The invoice uses a different value, so it is not valid. This is a fault in the invoicing software, not in the data entered.

Message to the sender

Subject: Invoice {invoiceNumber} – technical error in allowance or charge

Hello,

Thank you for your invoice {invoiceNumber} dated {issueDate}. When checking it we noticed that the indicator for allowance or charge does not contain the technically allowed value true or false (rule PEPPOL-EN16931-R043-1). The invoice is not valid like this. This is probably a fault in your invoicing software; could you please send a corrected version?

Kind regards

Example

A CII line settlement charge uses 1 in udt:Indicator. For that charge the allowed XML value is true.
