What it means
In the Extended profiles of Factur-X and ZUGFeRD, ram:SellerTaxRepresentativeTradeParty (BG-11) may contain zero or one direct ram:RoleCode child. Repeated elements fail this count check even if they contain identical codes. The test does not check the code's value.
Why it matters
The profile provides one optional role field for this party. Repeated role elements exceed that structural limit; they do not have to contain conflicting values to fail.
How to fix it
Check the role recorded for your seller's tax representative and how it is exported. Make sure ram:SellerTaxRepresentativeTradeParty contains at most one ram:RoleCode. Keep the appropriate code in one element, or remove the element if you do not need it. Recheck the corrected file.
