UBL-CR-219
What does UBL-CR-219 mean? A UBL invoice should not include the AccountingCustomerParty Party PostalAddress InhouseMail
Why did my invoice fail UBL-CR-219?
This EN 16931 rule warns when the UBL element cac:AccountingCustomerParty/cac:Party/cac:PostalAddress/cbc:InhouseMail is present: the invoice should not include an in-house mail routing element on the buyer postal address. Internal mail-stop or routing codes are not part of the EN 16931 address model; if needed they belong in one of the generic address lines (BT-50, BT-51, BT-163) of the buyer postal address (BG-8). 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.
