What it means
In the Extended profiles of Factur-X and ZUGFeRD, this rule checks each ram:SpecifiedTradeSettlementLineMonetarySummation. It counts ram:TaxTotalAmount elements whose currencyID equals ram:InvoiceCurrencyCode in the header settlement. Zero or one matching element passes this rule; the rule does not count amounts in other currencies.
Why it matters
This keeps the line's VAT total in the invoice currency in a single element rather than repeating it.
How to fix it
Check the VAT total in the affected line's totals block. Remove duplicate ram:TaxTotalAmount elements in the invoice currency, retaining the correct total if it belongs there. This rule does not require you to add a missing amount. If your invoicing software creates the duplicates, ask its supplier to correct the export. Export and recheck the file.
