ERROR

XRechnung 3.0

The IPSI category (the indirect tax of Ceuta and Melilla) comes from the updated EN16931 code lists supported by the current XRechnung 3.0.2 rulepack; unlike VAT-free categories it can carry a positive rate, but the rate must never be negative.

Solution

Set BT-152 (cbc:Percent) to a non-negative value such as 10.00; never use a negative rate for a "M" (IPSI) line.
