Error

FX-SCH-A-000192: Use at most one VAT total matching the VAT accounting currency

In short

Error: fails the selected checks.

FX-SCH-A-000192 means more than one ram:TaxTotalAmount in an invoice totals block has a currencyID matching ram:TaxCurrencyCode (BT-6). Keep at most one matching total for the VAT amount in the accounting currency (BT-111).

On this page

What it means

The rule counts ram:TaxTotalAmount elements in ram:SpecifiedTradeSettlementHeaderMonetarySummation whose currencyID matches ram:TaxCurrencyCode in the surrounding ram:ApplicableHeaderTradeSettlement. It permits zero or one match. Without ram:TaxCurrencyCode, no totals match this test. BT-110 in a different invoice currency is not counted. The rule applies to all listed profiles, including Minimum.

Why it matters

The profile limits the VAT total for the stated accounting currency to one element in this block. This rule does not impose a general limit on totals in every other currency.

How to fix it

Check ram:TaxCurrencyCode and the currencyID attributes on the VAT totals. Correct any wrongly labelled currency and remove repeated matching totals, retaining the intended accounting-currency VAT amount. Do not remove the invoice-currency VAT total merely because it also uses ram:TaxTotalAmount. Export and check the corrected file again.
