[UBL-CR-529]-A UBL invoice should not include the InvoiceLine DespatchLineReference

Stored validation assertion
not((cac:InvoiceLine|cac:CreditNoteLine)/cac:DespatchLineReference)

UBL-CR-529 is a warning rule in the schema layer of Peppol BIS Billing 3.0.20 · UBL. An invoice that breaks it is flagged but not rejected.

What this rule requires

The rule requires that a UBL invoice or credit note must not contain a cac:DespatchLineReference inside any cac:InvoiceLine or cac:CreditNoteLine. Because the severity is warning, a document with this element is not rejected; the validator reports it as an advisory issue and recommends removing the reference.

How to fix

Remove every cac:DespatchLineReference element that appears within cac:InvoiceLine or cac:CreditNoteLine. If your system inserts it automatically, change the mapping so that no line-level despatch reference is emitted.
