BR-FR-MV-05
This is a French BR-FR rule from the AFNOR XP Z12-012 standard - a national requirement for invoices exchanged through France's e-invoicing network (PDP platforms) under the September 2026 mandate. Typical French specifics: the seller's SIREN (scheme 0002), mandatory payment mentions (late penalties, recovery costs, discount terms), and the invoicing framework code. The official rule text below is in French - the referenced BT fields identify what to add or fix.
- Read the official text - each sub-rule names the exact business term (BT) involved.
- Check the seller identifiers: SIREN in
CompanyIDwithschemeID="0002". - Check the mandatory French invoice notes (BT-22 with PMT/PMD/AAB prefixes).
- Validate against the

[BR-FR-MV-05/EXT-FR-FE-BG-12] : Num Fact : - Ligne GROUP : , Somme Sous lignes : , Nbre sous-lignes: . Valeur actuelle : "". Lorsque le cadre de facturation (BT-23) est S8, B8, M8 ou S9, B9, M9, le total HT (ram:LineTotalAmount) de la ligne GROUP doit être égal (tolérance ±0,01 * nombre de sous-lignes) à la somme des totaux HT des lignes enfants dont le ParentLineID correspond à l'identifiant de la ligne GROUP (ram:LineID).
Developers also reach this page searching for a “French e-invoice validation error”, a “Factur-X bill rejected” message, or how to fix a failed PDP compliance check — it's the same issue, explained above.
In short, in English: When the invoicing framework (BT-23) is S8, B8, M8 or S9, B9, M9, the net total (ram:LineTotalAmount) of a GROUP line must equal, within a tolerance of 0.01 times the number of sub-lines, the sum of the net totals of the child lines whose ParentLineID matches the GROUP line's ram:LineID.
