CII-DT-009: Remove listURI from type codes

In short

Fatal: fails the selected checks.

CII-DT-009 means a ram:TypeCode element in your CII file has a listURI attribute, which is not allowed. Remove that attribute and keep the code value.

On this page

What it means

The check covers every ram:TypeCode element in the CII file, including the invoice type code (BT-3). It fails if a listURI attribute is present. This rule does not check other attributes or the code value.

Why it matters

The CII mapping does not use listURI on ram:TypeCode to identify the code list.

How to fix it

Find listURI attributes on ram:TypeCode elements and remove them. Keep each code value unchanged, and leave listURI attributes on other elements alone unless another rule reports them. Save or regenerate your CII file, then check it again.
