FX-SCH-A-001082: Use an allowed format code for the line despatch advice date

In short

Error: fails the selected checks.

FX-SCH-A-001082 means the date of a despatch advice referenced on a line has a non-empty format code that is not in the Extended profile's allowed list. Correct format on qdt:DateTimeString inside ram:DespatchAdviceReferencedDocument/ram:FormattedIssueDateTime to a listed code matching the date text.

What it means

The format attribute on qdt:DateTimeString under ram:SpecifiedLineTradeDelivery/ram:DespatchAdviceReferencedDocument/ram:FormattedIssueDateTime is checked against code list 17 in FACTUR-X_EXTENDED_codedb.xml. An empty value passes this rule. A missing attribute is checked separately by FX-SCH-A-001081.

Why it matters

The format code identifies how the despatch advice date text is written. The profile restricts which codes you can use.

How to fix it

Correct format on the affected despatch advice's qdt:DateTimeString. For a date written as YYYYMMDD, use format="102"; if you use another allowed format, keep its code and date text consistent. Put the format code in the attribute, not the pattern YYYYMMDD. Export the corrected file and check it again.
