BR-CO-11 BR-CO-11 requires BT-107 to equal Σ BT-92, the sum of the BG-20 amounts on the document

BR-CO-11 requires BT-107 to equal Σ BT-92, the sum of the BG-20 amounts on the document. You declared 1.00 for BT-107, but the single entry in allowances sum to 10.00 — a difference of -9.00 EUR. BT-107 is a plain sum and nothing nets against it: a document level charge in the same VAT category does reduce the taxable amount of that category's breakdown group, but it never reduces BT-107, which stays a gross disclosure of everything deducted.

This rule is implemented and its error payload below is real, but the long-form write-up — normative text, worked example, divergence note — is not written yet. Everything the library knows about this rule is on this page. Ask and we will prioritise it.

xpath locates the element in the generated UBL document, which is where a KoSIT or Peppol validator will report the same problem.

The fix

Either correct the allowances array so it sums to your declared figure, or drop declaredTotals.allowanceTotalAmount and let the library compute it — generation always emits the computed value regardless of what you declare. Sum the *rounded* entry amounts, in that order: EN 16931 rounds each amount to two decimals and then adds.
