What it means
This rule checks schemeID on ram:ApplicableHeaderTradeAgreement/ram:BuyerTradeParty/ram:GlobalID against code list 11. A missing or empty scheme value passes this check. The identifier's own value is not checked here.
Why it matters
The scheme distinguishes identification systems used for BT-46. A non-empty scheme code must belong to the list defined for this field.
How to fix it
Check which scheme issued the buyer's global identifier. Correct schemeID on ram:GlobalID inside ram:BuyerTradeParty, for example 0088 for a GLN or 0060 for a DUNS number. Keep the identifier and its scheme consistent. Recheck your corrected file.
