BR-O-1

Outside Scope: Taxable Amount Missing

What This Error Means

When VAT category O (Services Outside Scope of VAT) is used, a taxable amount must still be declared in the TaxSubtotal. Category O is used for services that fall entirely outside the VAT system (e.g. certain financial services). The tax amount must be 0.00.

How to Fix It

Set TaxableAmount to the aggregate net value, TaxAmount to 0.00, and add an exemption reason explaining why the supply is outside scope.
