Where the rule applies
Syntax: CII · UBL
The same rule, expressed twice: UBL and CII name the same fields with different paths. Running a CII file against the UBL rules is why you get errors that mean nothing.
UBL
/*/cac:TaxTotal/cac:TaxSubtotal/cac:TaxCategory[normalize-space(cbc:ID) = 'L'][cac:TaxScheme/normalize-space(upper-case(cbc:ID))='VAT']
CII
//rsm:SupplyChainTradeTransaction/ram:ApplicableHeaderTradeSettlement/ram:ApplicableTradeTax[ram:CategoryCode = 'L'][upper-case(ram:TypeCode) = 'VAT']
Technical test
The rule passes when this Schematron expression holds true:
every $rate in ../ram:RateApplicablePercent/xs:decimal(.) satisfies (../ram:BasisAmount = (round(sum(/rsm:CrossIndustryInvoice/rsm:SupplyChainTradeTransaction/ram:IncludedSupplyChainTradeLineItem/ram:SpecifiedLineTradeSettlement[ram:ApplicableTradeTax/ram:CategoryCode = 'L' and ram:ApplicableTradeTax/xs:decimal(ram:RateApplicablePercent) =$rate]/ram:SpecifiedTradeSettlementLineMonetarySummation/xs:decimal(ram:LineTotalAmount)) * 10 * 10) div 100 + round(sum(/rsm:CrossIndustryInvoice/rsm:SupplyChainTradeTransaction/ram:ApplicableHeaderTradeSettlement/ram:SpecifiedTradeAllowanceCharge[ram:ChargeIndicator/udt:Indicator=true() and ram:CategoryTradeTax/ram:CategoryCode='L' and ram:CategoryTradeTax/xs:decimal(ram:RateApplicablePercent)=$rate]/xs:decimal(ram:ActualAmount)) * 10 * 10) div 100 - round(sum(/rsm:CrossIndustryInvoice/rsm:SupplyChainTradeTransaction/ram:ApplicableHeaderTradeSettlement/ram:SpecifiedTradeAllowanceCharge[ram:ChargeIndicator/udt:Indicator=false() and ram:CategoryTradeTax/ram:CategoryCode='L' and ram:CategoryTradeTax/xs:decimal(ram:RateApplicablePercent)=$rate]/xs:decimal(ram:ActualAmount)) * 10 * 10) div 100))How to fix it
