FX-SCH-A-000962: Each financial adjustment needs one amount element

In short

Error: fails the selected checks.

FX-SCH-A-000962 means a financial adjustment in your invoice's header settlement contains no ram:ActualAmount element or more than one. Add the missing element or remove duplicates so that the adjustment contains exactly one amount element.

What it means

For each ram:SpecifiedFinancialAdjustment in the header settlement, this rule counts ram:ActualAmount child elements. It requires exactly one element, but does not check whether the amount is filled in, valid or correctly calculated.

Why it matters

A single amount element identifies where the amount for each financial adjustment belongs.

How to fix it

Check each ram:SpecifiedFinancialAdjustment in the header settlement. Add a missing ram:ActualAmount containing the actual adjustment amount, or remove duplicate elements while keeping the amount for that adjustment. Export the corrected file and recheck it.
