UBL-CR-579
What does UBL-CR-579 mean? A UBL invoice should not include the InvoiceLine Item SellersItemIdentification MeasurementDimension
Why did my invoice fail UBL-CR-579?
The official rule states: "A UBL invoice should not include the InvoiceLine Item SellersItemIdentification MeasurementDimension". The MeasurementDimension element under InvoiceLine/Item (Item/SellersItemIdentification) exists in the generic UBL 2.1 schema but is not mapped to any EN 16931 business term, so a core-compliant invoice must leave it out. Receivers validating against EN 16931 will flag it because data in unmapped elements cannot be reliably processed. EN 16931 uses only the plain identifier: cac:SellersItemIdentification/cbc:ID (BT-155).
Official rule text
A UBL invoice should not include the InvoiceLine Item SellersItemIdentification MeasurementDimension
Common causes
- A UBL generator emitting all optional children of cac:SellersItemIdentification instead of only cbc:ID
- Copying an order or catalogue UBL structure into the invoice
- Mapping product-master data wholesale into the item identification block
