Das Element "VAT category rate" (BT-119) muss übermittelt werden.

Why it fails

The VAT category rate (BT-119) is missing from a VAT breakdown group. XRechnung requires it even where EN 16931 would let you omit it.

How to fix it

Add BT-119 to every BG-23 group as a percentage number - 19, 7, or 0 for zero-rated, exempt and reverse-charge groups.

Nothing is stored, and the whole invoice is checked, not just this rule. A PDF only works if it is Factur-X / ZUGFeRD — a PDF with the invoice XML inside it.
