BR-FR-CO-10_EXT-FR-FE-146-1: A line delivery location identifier needs its scheme

In short

Fatal: fails the selected checks.

BR-FR-CO-10_EXT-FR-FE-146-1 means a delivery location identifier on an invoice or credit note line (EXT-FR-FE-146) is missing its scheme attribute (EXT-FR-FE-148). Add the scheme code for that identifier's numbering system.

What it means

For each delivery location on an invoice or credit note line, every location identifier must have a scheme attribute. In UBL, the test checks for a schemeID attribute on each cbc:ID directly within the line's cac:Delivery/cac:DeliveryLocation. It checks whether the attribute exists, not whether its value is valid.

Why it matters

The scheme tells the recipient which numbering system the line's delivery location identifier belongs to.

How to fix it

Correct the delivery location identifier on the affected line. In UBL, set schemeID on its cac:Delivery/cac:DeliveryLocation/cbc:ID. The line is cac:InvoiceLine for an invoice or cac:CreditNoteLine for a credit note. For CII, fill the corresponding line delivery location identifier scheme field (EXT-FR-FE-148). Export the corrected file and recheck it.
