UBL-SR-29 — UBL rule

The SEPA creditor identifier (BT-90) appears more than once — only one PartyIdentification/ID with schemeID 'SEPA' is allowed in the whole document.

Reachability

The serializer emits at most one schemeID SEPA PartyIdentification, from invoice.payment.creditor_id.

How to fix it

Keep a single party identification with schemeID SEPA (the bank-assigned creditor reference).

UBL-SR-29 auf Deutsch — was bedeutet der Fehler?

Der KoSIT-Validator lehnt die Rechnung ab, weil die SEPA-Gläubiger-ID (BT-90) mehrfach vorkommt — im gesamten Dokument ist nur eine PartyIdentification/ID mit schemeID „SEPA“ erlaubt.

So beheben Sie den Fehler

Behalten Sie genau eine Parteikennung mit schemeID SEPA (die Gläubiger-ID der Bank).
