BR-07
Error (blocking) EN 16931 (UBL)EN 16931 (CII)
Official rule text
[BR-07]-An Invoice shall contain the Buyer name (BT-44).
What it means
The buyer's legal name (BT-44) is mandatory, mirror of BR-06. The UBL binding checks cac:AccountingCustomerParty/cac:Party/cac:PartyLegalEntity/cbc:RegistrationName; a buyer emitted with only cac:PartyName/cbc:Name (BT-45, trading name) fails.
How to fix it
Add cbc:RegistrationName under the customer's cac:PartyLegalEntity (UBL) or fill ram:BuyerTradeParty/ram:Name (CII) with the buyer's registered legal name (BT-44).
Business terms involved: BT-44
🇫🇷 En français
La raison sociale de l'acheteur (BT-44) est obligatoire, en miroir de BR-06. Le binding UBL contrôle cac:AccountingCustomerParty/cac:Party/cac:PartyLegalEntity/cbc:RegistrationName ; un acheteur décrit uniquement par cac:PartyName/cbc:Name (BT-45, nom commercial) est rejeté.
Correction : Ajoutez cbc:RegistrationName sous le cac:PartyLegalEntity de l'acheteur (UBL) ou renseignez ram:BuyerTradeParty/ram:Name (CII) avec sa raison sociale (BT-44).
