FX-SCH-A-000794: Use at most one ship-from party ID

In short

Error: fails the selected checks.

FX-SCH-A-000794 means your ship-from party contains more than one ram:ID element. Keep at most one ram:ID under ram:ShipFromTradeParty. This limit does not apply to ram:GlobalID.

On this page

What it means

Each ram:ShipFromTradeParty under ram:ApplicableHeaderTradeDelivery may contain zero or one direct ram:ID child. This rule counts only ram:ID elements, not other identifier fields.

Why it matters

The Extended profile limits this particular identifier field to one occurrence. Repeating it does not match the required XML structure.

How to fix it

In ram:ApplicableHeaderTradeDelivery/ram:ShipFromTradeParty, remove extra ram:ID elements and keep the identifier you intend to use. You can remove all ram:ID elements if you do not need this field. Export your invoice again and recheck it.
