A DETAIL line has no net amount

In the extended profile, a line of subtype DETAIL — or without a subtype — must carry a line net amount (BT-131).

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.

[BR-FREXT-24]-Each Invoice line (BG-25) shall have an Invoice line net amount (BT-131), if the "Subtype of invoice line item" (EXT-FR-FE-163 / BT-X-8) has the value "DETAIL" or is not specified.

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

The line net amount is what the totals add up and what the recipient checks against quantity and price; without it, the line invoices without saying how much. The extended profile only exempts structural lines. It only applies to documents that declare the EXTENDED-CTC-FR profile — the profile sheet replaces the CEN package and adds its own rules for hierarchical lines.

How to fix it

Fill in the amount in your system, or give the line the GROUP subtype. Factlint never writes an amount, even a missing one: rule 1 would at most propose it.

Severity returned by the rule set

Blocking since 1 September 2026: the current base, `fr-2026-09`, seals the FNFE 1.4.0.03 artefact in fatal mode, and it is the one the pinned engine applies by default. An invoice issued in August 2026 is judged against `fr-2026-08`, where the same rule comes out as a warning — which already rules out a “compliant” verdict. The API returns the severity of the rule set pinned for the judged invoice.
