Allowance amount

Error FX-SCH-A-000184 Factur-X

Element 'ram:ActualAmount' must occur exactly 1 times.

Mandatory rule: As long as it is violated, the invoice is invalid and will be rejected by validators.
What is wrong

This allowance is missing ram:ActualAmount, or the element occurs more than once. It must occur exactly once for each such allowance.

What the rule means

ram:ActualAmount specifies the amount of the allowance. Without exactly one amount, the allowance cannot be quantified unambiguously.

Please provide the allowance amount

The amount for a document-level allowance is missing or has been provided more than once. Exactly one amount makes the allowance unambiguous.

What to do
  1. Add exactly one ram:ActualAmount to the relevant ram:SpecifiedTradeAllowanceCharge.
  2. Remove any additional ram:ActualAmount elements if more than one is present.
  3. Generate the invoice again and validate it.
