PEPPOL-EN16931-R051

An amount uses the wrong currency

ErrorPeppol BIS 3.0

Also available in:NederlandsFrançais

What it means

All amounts must use the invoice currency. The only exception is the separate VAT total expressed in the accounting currency.

Typical causes

  • A copied line still uses another currency.
  • The export labels an amount with the company’s default currency.

How to fix it

  1. Confirm the invoice currency.
  2. Check the currency and value of each affected amount.
  3. Ask your provider to correct currencyID values, keeping the accounting-currency VAT total separate.
What the rule says (technical)

All currencyID attributes MUST have the same value as the invoice currency code (BT-5), except for the invoice total VAT amount in accounting currency (BT-111).

Set currencyID on every amount to the document currency.
