Original wording of the rule

[BR-DEX-01] Das Element "Attached Document" (BT-125) benutzt einen nicht zulässigen MIME-Code: . Im Falle einer Extension darf zusätzlich zu der Liste der mime codes (definiert in Abschnitt 8.2, "Binary Object") der MIME-Code application/xml genutzt werden.

How to fix it

Open the XML file and find the element cac:Attachment/cbc:EmbeddedDocumentBinaryObject.
Add or correct the element the way the wording of the rule above asks for.
Save the file and check it again with our checker. It runs in your browser, the file is never uploaded.

A correct UBL 2.1 snippet

<cac:Attachment
    xmlns:cac="urn:oasis:names:specification:ubl:schema:xsd:CommonAggregateComponents-2"
    xmlns:cbc="urn:oasis:names:specification:ubl:schema:xsd:CommonBasicComponents-2">
  <cbc:EmbeddedDocumentBinaryObject>text</cbc:EmbeddedDocumentBinaryObject>
</cac:Attachment>

The snippet is only the part of the document the rule is about. Put it in the right place inside your invoice; the namespaces are written here only so that the snippet reads on its own.

Our check is not complete: we do not check the XSD schema and we do not implement every rule, and a file that passes says nothing about whether the buyer or the Peppol network will accept it. Licences for the quoted wordings are listed in our sources.
