What is IS-R-008?

IS-R-008 is a fatal validation rule defined in the CIUS-IS (Iceland) specification (ISL national rules). It validates the AccountingCost element in the UBL invoice XML.

When this rule fires, the invoice is rejected by Peppol access points and never reaches the buyer.

Target path: //cac:InvoiceLine/cbc:AccountingCost

IS-R-008 is a hard failure — the invoice must be corrected and re-sent before it can reach the recipient.
