Official rule message (standard)

Das Element "Tender or lot reference" (BT-17) muss übermittelt werden.

Official rule message from the standard.

Where the rule applies

Syntax: CII · UBL

The same rule, expressed twice: UBL and CII name the same fields with different paths. Running a CII file against the UBL rules is why you get errors that mean nothing.

UBL

  • (/ubl:Invoice | /cn:CreditNote)[$isCVD]

CII

  • /rsm:CrossIndustryInvoice[$isCVD]/rsm:SupplyChainTradeTransaction/ram:ApplicableHeaderTradeAgreement

Technical test

The rule passes when this Schematron expression holds true:

ram:AdditionalReferencedDocument[normalize-space(ram:TypeCode) = '50' and normalize-space(ram:IssuerAssignedID)]
