BR-FR-DEC-01_BT-114: Invalid format for the rounding amount

In short

Fatal: fails the selected checks.

BR-FR-DEC-01_BT-114 means your rounding adjustment to the amount due (BT-114) has an invalid number format. Use at most two decimal places, a dot for decimals and at most 19 characters excluding the dot. A leading minus sign is allowed and counts towards the character limit.

What it means

The check applies to the document-level rounding adjustment (BT-114), not an invoice line. In UBL, this is cac:LegalMonetaryTotal/cbc:PayableRoundingAmount; CII checks the corresponding field. The value may be positive or negative but must meet the decimal format and length limits.

Why it matters

The rounding adjustment is included when calculating the amount due, so software needs to read its value and sign.

How to fix it

Correct BT-114 in the invoice totals of your source data or export. Use a leading minus sign if the adjustment reduces the amount due. Remove grouping separators and currency symbols, limit the value to two decimal places, check its length and recheck the file.
