What it means
Each ram:TelephoneUniversalCommunication under ram:BuyerAgentTradeParty/ram:DefinedTradeContact must contain exactly one direct ram:CompleteNumber child. This test counts number elements within each block, not telephone blocks or phone numbers written in the text.
Why it matters
The Extended profile requires a single number element within each contact telephone block.
How to fix it
Find the affected ram:TelephoneUniversalCommunication in the buyer agent's contact details. Put the contact's phone number in one ram:CompleteNumber and remove any additional ram:CompleteNumber elements from that block. Re-export and recheck your invoice without changing profiles just to avoid this check.
