BR-CO-21

Validation message

Each Document level allowance (BG-20) shall contain a Document level allowance reason (BT-97) or a Document level allowance reason code (BT-98), or both.

Explanation

Every allowance on the whole invoice must state a reason under EN 16931: as text, as a code, or both. Without one, it isn't clear what the amount is for.

How to fix

Ask the seller for a corrected invoice that states a reason. A short text such as ‘Volume discount’ is enough.
