The specification identifier is missing

The invoice must declare the URN of the profile it conforms to, in `ram:GuidelineSpecifiedDocumentContextParameter/ram:ID`.

This defect is fixed automatically. Test your invoice to find out whether it is affected, then apply the correction with the Pipeline Pro plan.

Why this error happens

Without this URN, no validator knows which rule set to apply: the document is unusable downstream even when its content is perfect. Generators that build their XML from a template forget it often.

How to fix it

The URN can be derived from what the document actually contains. Factlint fills it in and traces the correction with its `before`, its `after` and its XPath.

XML correction example

BEFORE (invalid)
<!-- ram:ID absent -->
AFTER (compliant)
<ram:ID>urn:cen.eu:en16931:2017</ram:ID>
