Original rule text
[UBL-CR-520]-A UBL invoice should not include the InvoiceLine InvoicePeriod StartTime
not((cac:InvoiceLine|cac:CreditNoteLine)/cac:InvoicePeriod/cbc:StartTime)UBL-CR-520 is a warning rule in the schema layer of Peppol BIS Billing 3.0.20 · UBL. An invoice that breaks it is flagged but not rejected.
What this rule requires
This warning rule applies to UBL invoices and credit notes. It checks that no cac:InvoiceLine or cac:CreditNoteLine contains a cac:InvoicePeriod with a cbc:StartTime child. Because the severity is warning, a document containing such an element is reported but is not rejected.
How to fix
Remove the cbc:StartTime element from any cac:InvoicePeriod that appears under cac:InvoiceLine or cac:CreditNoteLine. Ensure the system that produces the invoice does not output line-level invoice period start times.
