BR-FR-CO-10_EXT-FR-FE-92-1: A billed-to party identifier needs its scheme

In short

Fatal: fails the selected checks.

BR-FR-CO-10_EXT-FR-FE-92-1 means at least one identifier of the billed-to party (EXT-FR-FE-92) is missing its scheme attribute (EXT-FR-FE-92-1). Add the scheme code for that identifier's numbering system.

What it means

For each billed-to party within the buyer's service provider details, every identifier in its PartyIdentification details must have a schemeID attribute. The UBL test checks whether the attribute exists, not whether its value is valid.

Why it matters

The scheme tells the recipient which numbering system the billed-to party's identifier belongs to.

How to fix it

Add the correct scheme code to the billed-to party's identifier. In UBL, set schemeID on cac:PartyIdentification/cbc:ID within cac:AccountingCustomerParty/cac:Party/cac:ServiceProviderParty/cac:Party. For CII, fill the corresponding billed-to party identifier scheme field (EXT-FR-FE-92-1). Export the corrected file and recheck it.
