BR-DE-15 — E-Invoice Validation Rule & Fix

Fixture ID: emptyXRechnung · XPath: /ubl:Invoice/cbc:BuyerReference

1. Why This Rule Triggers (Diagnostic Message)

XRechnung requires a buyer reference (BT-10). For German public-sector buyers this is the Leitweg-ID; business buyers may supply any reference, but the field must be present.

2. How to Fix BR-DE-15

Ask your client for their Leitweg-ID (public sector) or an order/customer reference, and set buyerReference.

3. Valid Code / Payload Example

"buyerReference": "04011000-1234512345-06"
