BR-IC-11

In an Invoice with a VAT breakdown (BG-23) where the VAT category code (BT-118) is "Intra-community supply" the Actual delivery date (BT-72) or the Invoicing period (BG-14) shall not be blank.

error: the document is invalid Peppol documentation ↗

Why it fails

  • An intra-community supply (category K) has neither an actual delivery date (cac:Delivery/cbc:ActualDeliveryDate) nor an invoicing period.

How to fix it

Add the date the goods were delivered, or the invoicing period the supply covers.

What the rule checks

As the rule set's publisher wrote it. The rule runs on every element the context matches, and fails where the test is false; the validator reports the line of that element.
