[CL] Bulk Upload - Invoice (Factura and Factura Exenta)

Use an invoice for sales to businesses identified with a RUT. Use invoice for taxed sales (Factura Electrónica, 33) and invoice exempt for VAT-exempt sales (Factura Exenta, 34). For the general upload steps and format rules, see the Chile bulk upload manual.

Each row in the file is one item. An invoice with several items takes several rows with the same Invoice External ID; repeat the document and buyer columns with the same values on each of those rows.
