FX-SCH-A-001111: Repeated tax registration for the final recipient

In short

Error: fails the selected checks.

FX-SCH-A-001111 means your invoice line's final recipient has more than one ram:SpecifiedTaxRegistration entry. Keep at most one registration, using the tax registration relevant to your invoice.

On this page

What it means

Within the line's ram:SpecifiedLineTradeDelivery/ram:UltimateShipToTradeParty, this check allows zero or one ram:SpecifiedTaxRegistration child. It counts registration entries, not the numbers within them.

Why it matters

The Extended profile permits only one tax registration entry for this party. This rule does not give a VAT number priority over a national tax number.

How to fix it

Check the VAT number and national tax number recorded for the line's final recipient. Retain the registration you need in one ram:SpecifiedTaxRegistration and remove additional registration blocks. Do not combine multiple numbers into one field to avoid the limit. Export and recheck.
