ErrorEN 16931BT-118BT-151

What it means

VAT categories must use recognised codes from UNCL5305. A percentage or an internal tax label is not a VAT category code.

Typical causes

  • An internal VAT code was exported unchanged.
  • A percentage was put in the category field.

How to fix it

  1. Check the actual VAT treatment with your bookkeeper.
  2. Map it to the appropriate supported category: S, Z, E, AE, K, G, O, L or M.
What the rule says (technical)

Invoice tax categories MUST be coded using UNCL5305 code list (S, Z, E, AE, K, G, O, L, M).

Replace the value with one of S, Z, E, AE, K, G, O, L or M.
