What does this rule mean?

Each Document level charge (BG-21) shall contain a Document level charge reason (BT-104) or a Document level charge reason code (BT-105), or both.

A calculation/amount rule: the figures it names must reconcile arithmetically.

BG-21

BT-104

Document level charge reason

BT-105

Document level charge reason code

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.

Technical test

The rule passes when this Schematron expression holds true:

(../ram:Reason) or (../ram:ReasonCode)

How to fix it

Check the affected amounts in your source data — amounts are never changed automatically.

Correct the affected entry in your XML, then re-check the invoice. Validation runs locally in your browser — your file never leaves your machine.
