What it means
For each invoice line (BG-25), the test passes if ram:SpecifiedTradeProduct has no ram:OriginTradeCountry. Otherwise, it requires exactly one ram:OriginTradeCountry/ram:ID in total. It does not require one ID per origin element, check the ID's value or require exactly one origin element.
Why it matters
When you include country-of-origin information, this check requires a single identifier. Missing or repeated ID elements fail the check, which is reported as an error rather than a warning.
How to fix it
In the line's ram:SpecifiedTradeProduct, add the missing ram:OriginTradeCountry/ram:ID or remove extra ID elements so only the intended country identifier remains. If you omit the country of origin (BT-159), remove every ram:OriginTradeCountry element from that product. Export the corrected file and check it again.
