The total VAT amount does not match the breakdown
The invoice total VAT amount (BT-110) must equal the sum of the VAT category tax amounts (BT-117).
A financial field: the expected value is computed and offered, never written into the document — the correction is the issuer's to make. Test your invoice to find out whether it is affected.
The message your validator prints
Copied verbatim from the sealed artefact: this is the exact sentence the check prints when this rule fails.

Test your file with this error in mind
Upload the invoice involved: the report will say whether this code appears, where it appears in the document, and whether Factlint can only report it or also fix it.
To automate this check in an ERP flow, call the validation API and link every returned code to its public page.
Why this error happens
On a single-rate invoice the gap is almost always a rounding one: VAT computed on the total does not land on the sum of the VAT computed line by line. On a multi-rate invoice it is more often a category left out of the breakdown.
How to fix it
Fix the calculation in the system that produced the invoice, not in the file. Factlint computes the expected value and returns it in `suggested_value`, but never writes the field.
