Peppol BIS Billing 3.0, May 2026 release, EN 16931 model bound to UBL

Severity note: fatal, from the Flag column of the Peppol BIS Billing 3.0 UBL rules index retrieved 2026-10-18.

## Plain-language reading

The Sum of allowances on document level (BT-107) may have at most 2 decimals. The statement spells "allowanced" in "Sum of allowanced on document level (BT-107)". It says "allowed maximum number of decimals" and "is 2", and it ends with a period. It does not say shall. The context is cac:LegalMonetaryTotal. This is a decimal limit, not the BR-CO-11 sum. The published test reads cbc:AllowanceTotalAmount and writes <=2 with no space before <=. It does not call exists.

## What to change

Send the Sum of allowances on document level (BT-107) with at most 2 digits after the decimal point.

## Illustration

Illustration of the condition in the official statement. Not an example published by the source.

**Fails the stated condition.** The sum of allowances on document level has 3 digits after the decimal point.

**Passes the stated condition.** That sum has 2 digits after the decimal point.

## Published context and test

Copied from the source. Not reimplemented on this page.

cac:LegalMonetaryTotal
```

```
string-length(substring-after(cbc:AllowanceTotalAmount,'.'))<=2
```
