BR-15: The amount due for payment is missing
This code shows up when an electronic invoice is validated. Here is what it means, why it fires, and what to change in the file.
Why this code appears
The summary does not carry the amount due (BT-115). It is the only figure an accounts department reads in order to pay.
How to fix it
Fill DuePayableAmount: the total with VAT, less any prepaid amount, corrected by the rounding amount.
What it looks like in the file
These two snippets are replayed against our own checker on a complete invoice, every time the site is built. The first one raises this code, the second one does not.
What raises the code:
Nothing. The field is simply absent from the file, and it is that absence the check reports.
What to write instead:
<ram:DuePayableAmount>1200.00</ram:DuePayableAmount>Where it happens
This code comes from EN 16931, the European e-invoicing standard. It concerns business term BT-115.
