BR-CO-15: The total with VAT is not the total without VAT plus VAT
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 invoice total with VAT (BT-112) does not equal the total without VAT plus the total VAT (BT-109 + BT-110). A one-cent gap is enough, and it often comes from rounding applied to the display but not to the file.
How to fix it
Recalculate BT-112 = BT-109 + BT-110, using the values as written in the XML, not as printed.
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:
<ram:GrandTotalAmount>1199.99</ram:GrandTotalAmount>What to write instead:
<ram:GrandTotalAmount>1200.00</ram:GrandTotalAmount>Where it happens
This code comes from EN 16931, the European e-invoicing standard. It concerns business term BT-112.
