FX-SCH-A-001150: An included product's global identifier needs a scheme

In short

Error: fails the selected checks.

FX-SCH-A-001150 means ram:GlobalID on an included product is missing its schemeID attribute. Add the attribute with the code for the identifier's actual numbering system.

On this page

What it means

For each ram:GlobalID within ram:IncludedReferencedProduct under the line's ram:SpecifiedTradeProduct, the rule checks that schemeID exists. It does not check whether the attribute is empty or contains an allowed code.

Why it matters

The scheme identifies the numbering system used for the included product's global identifier.

How to fix it

Check the numbering system used by the included product's identifier. Add schemeID to the affected ram:GlobalID, using its allowed four-digit ISO 6523 code, such as 0160 for a GTIN. If the identifier was included by mistake, remove that ram:GlobalID instead. Save or export the corrected file and check it again.
