BR-DE-6 XRechnung requires the element "Seller contact telephone number" (BT-42)
XRechnung requires the element "Seller contact telephone number" (BT-42). The seller contact group is present but incomplete — BR-DE-5, BR-DE-6 and BR-DE-7 each make one part of it mandatory, so supplying two of the three still fails.
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.
