BR-05 — E-Invoice Validation Rule & Fix

Fixture ID: empty · XPath: /ubl:Invoice/cbc:DocumentCurrencyCode

1. Why This Rule Triggers (Diagnostic Message)

An invoice must have a currency code (BT-5) from ISO 4217, but none was provided. Every monetary amount in the document is interpreted against this code.

2. How to Fix BR-05

Set currency to the three-letter ISO 4217 alphabetic code, e.g. "EUR". Use the code, not the symbol.

3. Valid Code / Payload Example

"currency": "EUR"
