Reason code MUST be according to subset of UNCL 5189 D.16B.

Why it fails

An allowance reason code is not in the UNCL 5189 D.16B subset.

How to fix it

Use a D.16B code — 95 discount, 100 special rebate, 102 fixed long-term, 104 special agreement, 41 bonus for work ahead of schedule. Or send only the reason text.

What the validator checks

CII — context ram:SpecifiedTradeAllowanceCharge[normalize-space(ram:ChargeIndicator/udt:Indicator) = 'false']/ram:ReasonCode

some $code in $UNCL5189 satisfies normalize-space(text()) = $code

UBL — context cac:AllowanceCharge[cbc:ChargeIndicator = 'false']/cbc:AllowanceChargeReasonCode

some $code in $UNCL5189 satisfies normalize-space(text()) = $code
