Thanks for your help.

So in UBL format Sub-total order amount without tax is calculated as
PriceAmount less TaxAmount.
We think that most of the businesses would rather have it the other way
round. They would have Sub-total amount without tax and TaxAmount and
calculate PriceAmount (total with tax) from it.
Probably the same rule is applied for UBL order lines:
<Pricing> is unit price without tax times quantity,
<InvoiceCurrencyTaxAmount> is tax amount,
<PaymentVariation> is a line discount for example,
<TotalAmount> is total with tax.
Is this right?
Previously I assumed that line <TotalAmount> is without tax. Again, in my
simple order I don't calculate tax for lines so it would be better if line
<TotalAmount> was without tax.
> 2. How to include a default tax rate in the summary? The same tax rate is
applied for the whole order so it appears in the summary and not in lines.

I will code the default tax rate as <PaymentVariation>.
One more question about discounts:
On the line level we have just one possibility: <PaymentVariation>.
In the header we have <PaymentVariation>, <Discount> inside <PaymentTerms>
and <OverallDiscount>. How they should be used?
