Discount or charge percentage is missing

ErrorPeppol BIS 3.0BT-94

Also available in:NederlandsFrançais

What it means

When a discount or charge states a base amount, it must also state the percentage used.

Typical causes

  • The percentage field was left empty.
  • A fixed discount was exported with a base amount but no percentage.

How to fix it

  1. Check how the discount or charge was calculated.
  2. Enter the percentage if it is percentage-based.
  3. For a fixed amount, ask your provider to omit the unused base amount instead.
What the rule says (technical)

Allowance/charge percentage MUST be provided when allowance/charge base amount is provided.

Add cbc:MultiplierFactorNumeric whenever cbc:BaseAmount is used.
