What it means
When the invoice has a delivery address (BG-15), that address must have a city (BT-77). A blank value or one with only spaces counts as missing. In the XML it is cbc:CityName in the cac:Address of cac:DeliveryLocation inside cac:Delivery.
Why it matters
The delivery address tells the recipient and the tax authority where the goods were delivered or the service was provided. A delivery address that is only partly filled in fails the Romanian rules and the file is rejected.
How to fix it
In your invoicing software, open the delivery address or ship-to address of the invoice and fill in the city or town. If the delivery is in Bucharest, the city must be a sector code, see BR-RO-202. If the goods went to the buyer's own address, you can remove the separate delivery address.
The rule as published
Daca Adresa de livrare (BG-15) exista, trebuie furnizata Localitatea de livrare (BT-77). #If the Delivery to (BG-15) exists, the Deliver to city (BT-77) must exists. Business terms: BG-15, BT-77
