What it means
Each ram:EmailURIUniversalCommunication under ram:SpecifiedTradePaymentTerms/ram:PayeeTradeParty/ram:DefinedTradeContact must contain one ram:URIID element. This rule counts elements; it does not check whether the address is filled in or valid.
Why it matters
ram:URIID is where this contact email block holds its address, and the block requires one such element.
How to fix it
Check the payee contact's email block under ram:SpecifiedTradePaymentTerms/ram:PayeeTradeParty/ram:DefinedTradeContact. Keep one ram:URIID containing the correct address inside ram:EmailURIUniversalCommunication. If you are not providing an email address, omit that email block. Export the corrected file and check it again.
