Original rule text

[UBL-CR-623]-A UBL invoice should not include the InvoiceLine Item Certificate

Stored validation assertion
not((cac:InvoiceLine|cac:CreditNoteLine)/cac:Item/cac:Certificate)

UBL-CR-623 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

The rule applies to UBL invoices and credit notes. It requires that no cac:Certificate element is present inside cac:Item within any cac:InvoiceLine or cac:CreditNoteLine. The test checks that not((cac:InvoiceLine|cac:CreditNoteLine)/cac:Item/cac:Certificate) holds, meaning no line item certificate should be included. Because the severity is warning, the validator reports the issue but the document is not rejected for it.

How to fix

Remove the cac:Certificate element from cac:Item inside every cac:InvoiceLine and cac:CreditNoteLine.
