BR-Z-1
Zero-Rated VAT: Taxable Amount Missing (BT-116/Z)
What This Error Means
When VAT category Z (Zero-Rated) is used, a taxable amount must still be provided in the TaxSubtotal. The tax amount must be 0.00 and the percentage must be 0. This category applies to goods exported outside the EU and certain intra-community supplies.
How to Fix It
In the TaxSubtotal for category Z, set TaxableAmount to the aggregate net amount of zero-rated lines, TaxAmount to 0.00, and Percent to 0.
