PINT AE validation rule for UAE e-invoices
A discount on the whole invoice must show both its base amount and its percentage, or neither of them.
Give both the base amount and the percentage for the discount, or remove both.
The official wording of this rule is in the PINT AE specification published by OpenPeppol.
Alya Books checks this before you submit and tells you what to fix.
يجب أن يُظهر الخصم على مستوى الفاتورة المبلغ الأساسي والنسبة المئوية معاً، أو ألا يُظهر أياً منهما.
اذكر المبلغ الأساسي والنسبة المئوية للخصم معاً، أو احذفهما معاً.
