BR-CO-14 Invoice total VAT amount must equal the sum of VAT category tax amounts

The Invoice total VAT amount (BT-110) must equal the arithmetic sum of every VAT category tax amount (BT-117) in the VAT breakdown.

Problem Description

The Invoice total VAT amount (BT-110) must equal the arithmetic sum of every VAT category tax amount (BT-117) in the VAT breakdown.

ERROR

XRechnung 3.0

Context and Significance

Tax authorities reconcile the header VAT amount against the per-category breakdown. A mismatch implies either a missing breakdown row or a rounding error and is treated as a hard error.

Solution

Recompute BT-110 by summing every BT-117 (one per VAT category and rate combination) before exporting.

Quick actions

Valid Examples

  • Two BT-117 amounts 19.00 and 7.00 yield BT-110 = 26.00
  • Single BT-117 = 38.00 yields BT-110 = 38.00

Invalid Examples

  • BT-110 = 26.00 but the breakdown sums to 25.99
  • BT-110 = 19.00 while two BT-117 rows of 19.00 and 7.00 exist
