What does UBL-CR-406 mean? A UBL invoice should not include the Delivery DeliveryTerms
Why did my invoice fail UBL-CR-406?
The UBL element cac:Delivery/cac:DeliveryTerms should not be used in an EN 16931 invoice. Structured delivery terms (e.g. Incoterms as a dedicated element) have no business term in the core model; if needed, such information can only appear as free text (e.g. in a note).
