Original rule text
[UBL-CR-556]-A UBL invoice should not include the InvoiceLine AllowanceCharge AccountingCost
not((cac:InvoiceLine|cac:CreditNoteLine)/cac:AllowanceCharge/cbc:AccountingCost)UBL-CR-556 is a warning rule in the schema layer of Peppol BIS Billing 3.0.21 · UBL. An invoice that breaks it is flagged but not rejected.
What this rule requires
For a UBL Invoice or CreditNote, no cac:InvoiceLine or cac:CreditNoteLine may contain a cac:AllowanceCharge/cbc:AccountingCost. The test not((cac:InvoiceLine|cac:CreditNoteLine)/cac:AllowanceCharge/cbc:AccountingCost) means that if any such AccountingCost exists, the rule is reported. This is a warning, so the document is not rejected, but the validator advises against including line-level allowance/charge accounting cost.
How to fix
Remove the cbc:AccountingCost element from any cac:AllowanceCharge inside a cac:InvoiceLine or cac:CreditNoteLine. If the producing system generates line-level allowance/charge accounting cost, configure it to omit that element for invoice and credit note lines.
