Official statement

[BR-DE-19] "Payment account identifier" (BT-84) soll eine korrekte IBAN enthalten, wenn in "Payment means type code" (BT-81) mit dem Code 58 SEPA als Zahlungsmittel gefordert wird.

XRechnung Schematron 2.6.0 (itplr-kosit/xrechnung-schematron tag v2.6.0), UBL invoice and credit note

Severity note: warning, from the schematron flag attribute on tag v2.6.0.

Plain-language reading

When the payment means type code (BT-81) is 58, the payment account identifier (BT-84) should be a correct IBAN. The published flag is warning. The test calls xr:checkIBAN; this entry does not restate that function.

What to change

For code 58, put an IBAN that passes the schematron IBAN check in cac:PayeeFinancialAccount/cbc:ID.
