What does UBL-CR-185 mean? A UBL invoice should not include the AccountingSupplierParty Party PartyLegalEntity RegistrationAddress

Why did my invoice fail UBL-CR-185?

This EN 16931 rule warns when the UBL element cac:AccountingSupplierParty/cac:Party/cac:PartyLegalEntity/cac:RegistrationAddress is present: the invoice should not include a separate registration address for the seller's legal entity. The core model has exactly one seller address, the postal address (BG-5) under cac:Party/cac:PostalAddress; a second, registration-specific address is not part of it. The element is not forbidden by UBL itself, but it lies outside the EN 16931 core invoice model, so remove it to keep the invoice fully conformant and interoperable.
