The invoicing software provider can correct the export.

How to fix it

  1. Find the entry in the UBL export at (cac:InvoiceLine|cac:CreditNoteLine)/cac:Item/cac:AdditionalItemProperty/cbc:NameCode.
  2. Adjust the export to omit cbc:NameCode at this location. If you need the information, first check where the selected profile expects it.
