Value should not be present

Why it fails

'Value' is present, but this profile does not allow it — nothing in the EN 16931 semantic model maps to it.

How to fix it

Remove 'Value'. It is almost always left over from a generic template or a library that emits every field of the underlying schema. Reported as a warning.

What the validator checks

CII — context //*[ends-with(name(), 'DocumentContextParameter')]

(no binding in the official artefacts)

…or paste the XML instead

Nothing is stored, and the whole invoice is checked, not just this rule. A PDF only works if it is Factur-X / ZUGFeRD — a PDF with the invoice XML inside it.
