BR-Z-09 error

What this rule checks

Explanation

For a VAT breakdown group whose category code is "Z" (Zero rated), the VAT category tax amount (BT-117) must be exactly 0 — since the rate is 0%, the computed tax is always 0 regardless of the taxable amount.

How to fix it

Set the tax amount to 0 for any VAT breakdown group coded "Z". If a non-zero tax amount is showing up here, check whether lines with a different VAT category were incorrectly grouped into this zero-rated breakdown.
