Line net total must equal the sum of lines
Line net total must equal the sum of lines. The controlled example changes the specific field or group named by this rule. Set only /*/cac:LegalMonetaryTotal/cbc:LineExtensionAmount to '100.01'.
Business terms: BT-106, BT-131.
Sum the invoice line net amounts to two decimal places.
Reproduced failure and correction
Tested on 2 November 2026 with the production SaxonC-HE 13.1 / saxonche 13.1.1 engine, en16931 mode, UBL. The XSD passes; the report then contains BR-CO-10. Restoring this fragment makes the complete original invoice pass the selected checks.
[BR-CO-10]-Sum of Invoice line net amount (BT-106) = Σ Invoice line net amount (BT-131).Additional triggered rules: 1. BR-CO-13. Counts include distinct error and warning codes; the target code is excluded.
Precise mutated XPath: /*/cac:LegalMonetaryTotal/cbc:LineExtensionAmount.
Calculation using this invoice
Line net total shown: 100.01 EUR. Expected: Σ line net amounts = 100.00 EUR (one line). Difference: 0.01 EUR. Round the sum to two decimal places.
