blocked
More than one tax total is provided in the invoice currency
There can be only one total VAT amount (BT-110) in the invoice currency.
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.
Why this error happens
Two VAT totals in the same currency leave the recipient to choose which to book — so two possible amounts due for a single invoice. The duplicate often comes from a per-rate subtotal written where a single total is expected.
How to fix it
Fix the structure of the totals in the system producing the invoice. Factlint removes neither: a VAT total is a financial field, and choosing which to drop would amount to deciding the amount due (rule 1).
