BR-DEX-12 Third party payment description is required

The Third party payment description (BT-DEX-003) must be provided when the THIRD PARTY PAYMENT group (BG-DEX-09) is present.

Problem Description

ERROR

XRechnung extension rule (KoSIT, BR-DEX) · XRechnung 3.0

Context and Significance

This XRechnung Extension rule fires only in the Extension scenario, where the THIRD PARTY PAYMENT group (mapped to UBL cac:PrepaidPayment) is available.

Add cbc:InstructionID inside cac:PrepaidPayment to describe the third party payment. If you do not model third party payments, do not emit the BG-DEX-09 group; the standard XRechnung CIUS profile has no such group.
