FX-SCH-A-000805: Use an allowed ship-from country code

In short

Error: fails the selected checks.

FX-SCH-A-000805 means the non-empty country code in your ship-from postal address is not in the EXTENDED profile's allowed list. Replace ram:CountryID with the permitted code for that address's country.

What it means

A non-empty value in ram:ShipFromTradeParty/ram:PostalTradeAddress/ram:CountryID must match code list 10 in FACTUR-X_EXTENDED_codedb.xml. An empty code value passes this test; the test does not require the element to be present.

Why it matters

The permitted list standardises how the country is represented in your ship-from address.

How to fix it

Check the actual country of your ship-from address. Correct ram:ShipFromTradeParty/ram:PostalTradeAddress/ram:CountryID using the EXTENDED profile's country code list. Export your invoice again and recheck the file.
