Severity note: fatal, from the Flag column of the Peppol BIS Billing 3.0 UBL rules index retrieved 2026-10-18.

Plain-language reading

Each Item attribute (BG-32) must contain an Item attribute name (BT-160) and an Item attribute value (BT-161). The message says "shall contain", not "shall have", and it starts with "Each". It ends with a period. The context starts with //. The published test checks that both a name and a value exist.

What to change

On each item attribute, send an item attribute name (BT-160) and an item attribute value (BT-161).
