A line period starts before the invoice period · PEPPOL-EN16931-R110

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

When an invoice has an invoicing period (BG-14) and individual lines give their own periods (BG-26), the start of each line period (BT-134) must lie within the invoice period. Here a line starts before the invoice period, so the invoice is not valid.

As of

Who can correct it?

The sender can correct the invoice.

How to fix it

  1. Ask the sender for a corrected invoice in which the line periods lie within the invoice period.
  2. If you issued the invoice yourself: widen the invoice period or adjust the line periods.

Paraphrase · When both start dates are supplied, the line period may start on or after the start of the invoice period.

Message to the sender

Subject: Invoice {invoiceNumber} – period of a line

Hello,

Thank you for your invoice {invoiceNumber} dated {issueDate}. When checking it we noticed that the period of one line starts before the invoice period (rule PEPPOL-EN16931-R110). The invoice is not valid like this. Could you please check the periods and send a corrected invoice?

Kind regards

Example

The invoice period begins on 1 March. A line start date of 28 February falls before it. Check the actual period. If the line began on 1 March, correct its start date to that date.
