You can model references to preceding invoices at the line level.

Suggest Edits

CIUS-FR allows the usage of the Preceding Invoice Reference group on the line level.

As on the document level, this group also offers the Preceding Invoice Document Type Code element which is used to provide the Invoice Type Code (UNCL 1001) InvoiceTypeCode of the referenced preceding invoice.

This allows an invoice line to be able to refer to a specific preceding invoice.
