No more than one note is allowed on document level, unless both the buyer and seller are German organizations.

Why it fails

More than one document-level note (BT-22) is present. Peppol allows only one, unless both parties are German.

How to fix it

Merge the notes into a single BT-22, separating them with line breaks.
