What it means
For S8, B8 or M8, the selected type-code field must be non-blank and must not contain 389, 261, 501, 500, 502, 471 or 473. In UBL, the fields are cbc:InvoiceTypeCode and cbc:CreditNoteTypeCode. The CII field is ram:TypeCode. A self-billed document is issued by the buyer on the seller's behalf.
Why it matters
This rule prevents the specified self-billed document types from being combined with these three billing frameworks.
How to fix it
Check who issued the document and what kind of document it is. For a seller-issued invoice or credit note, choose the appropriate non-self-billed type, such as 380 for an invoice or 381 for a credit note. If the buyer issued it on the seller's behalf, review BT-23 instead of changing a correct self-billed type merely to clear the error. Export and recheck the file.
