What it means
The test counts direct ram:PartialPaymentAmount children in each ram:SpecifiedTradePaymentTerms under ram:ApplicableHeaderTradeSettlement. It allows none or one. It does not specify due dates or how many payment terms blocks the invoice may contain.
Why it matters
The limit applies within each set of payment terms. Several partial payment amount elements in the same block exceed that limit, even if their values are identical.
How to fix it
Check the agreed partial payment for the affected terms and remove duplicate ram:PartialPaymentAmount elements. If the amounts represent distinct instalments, ask your software supplier how to represent them in your chosen profile rather than deleting a genuine instalment. Export the file again and recheck it.
