The tax total in the accounting currency is missing or duplicated

When `VAT accounting currency code` (BT-6) is present there must be exactly one total VAT amount (BT-111) in that currency; when it is absent, none.

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

The rule ties together two fields that generators handle separately: declaring an accounting currency without the matching amount, or the reverse, leaves the VAT declaration incomplete in the country where it is owed.

How to fix it

Fix the structure of the totals in the system producing the invoice. Factlint neither writes nor removes a VAT total (rule 1).
