ERROR

XRechnung 3.0

Context and Significance

This XRechnung Extension rule mirrors the core two-decimal amount discipline (like BR-DEC rules) for the Extension-only third party payment amount.

Solution

Round cbc:PaidAmount in cac:PrepaidPayment to two decimal places (for example 20.00, not 20.005). If you do not model third party payments, the standard XRechnung CIUS profile avoids this rule.
