What it means
This rule permits zero or one ram:CountrySubDivisionName child in each ram:PostalTradeAddress inside the line's ram:SpecifiedLineTradeDelivery/ram:ShipToTradeParty. It counts elements, even if their text is identical.
Why it matters
The Extended profile provides a single field for the address's region, state, province or county rather than repeated region fields.
How to fix it
Check the region details in the line's delivery address. In XML, retain at most one ram:CountrySubDivisionName inside ram:SpecifiedLineTradeDelivery/ram:ShipToTradeParty/ram:PostalTradeAddress. If you need more than one part of the regional description, keep that information together in the single field. Remove duplicate elements, then export and recheck your file.
