BR-CO-14

Total VAT amount does not match the VAT breakdown

Repaired automatically Field BT-110 EN16931 UBL / CII

What it means

The invoice total VAT (BT-110) must equal the sum of the VAT category amounts in the breakdown. A mismatch means the header total and the per-category figures were calculated by different code paths.

Can it be fixed automatically?

Nothing about your business is needed to fix this — the correct value is a constant, a code list entry, or is already present in the document.

This one can be repaired automatically. The API applies the fix, re-validates, and reports exactly what changed with before and after values.

How to fix it

Recompute the total VAT as the sum of the VAT category tax amounts.
