For a sample invoice, the library reports: An amount on this invoice, or a total computed from its amounts, is 1000000000000, beyond the 999,999,999,999.99 this library can compute with exactly.

BT-131 / BT-115- Severity
fatal
The fix
Check the line quantities (BT-129), prices (BT-146) and allowance or charge amounts for a value in the wrong unit. If the invoice really is this large, split it: no single amount or total may exceed 999,999,999,999.99 in absolute value.

This is not a rule of the regulation — EN 16931 sets no maximum — but past that size a JavaScript number cannot hold every cent, so the totals would be silently wrong. The usual cause is not a genuinely huge invoice but a unit slip: a price in cents where euros were meant, a quantity multiplied twice, or an amount parsed from a string with its decimal separator dropped.",
