# BR-DEC-10 Sum of allowances on document level must not exceed two decimal places

The BT-107 Sum of allowances on document level is limited to a maximum of two decimal places. Any value carrying three or more fractional digits fails EN16931 validation.

## Problem Description

The BT-107 Sum of allowances on document level is limited to a maximum of two decimal places. Any value carrying three or more fractional digits fails EN16931 validation.

> **ERROR**: XRechnung 3.0

## Context and Significance

This is an EN16931 core decimal-precision constraint enforced by KoSIT: every monetary amount in the invoice must be expressed with no more than two decimals.

## Solution

Round BT-107 to two decimal places before serialising the amount, and apply the same rounding used in the BR-CO total and sum calculations so the invoice still reconciles.

- validate
- convert

## Valid Examples

- BT-107 = 100.00 — two decimals accepted

## Invalid Examples

- BT-107 = 100.000 — three decimals rejected

## Code Examples

<cac:LegalMonetaryTotal>
