What it means
The rule checks that rsm:ExchangedDocument has no direct ram:RevisionID child. The identifier does not have to be numeric to trigger the warning.
Why it matters
The EN 16931 CII mapping does not use this revision field. A revision identifier is distinct from the invoice number (BT-1) and a preceding invoice reference (BT-25).
How to fix it
Remove ram:RevisionID from rsm:ExchangedDocument and keep your invoice number (BT-1). If you need to reference an earlier invoice, use its invoice number in the preceding invoice reference (BT-25). Check the updated file again.
