PEPPOL-EN16931-R001
Peppol requires a business process identifier (BT-23), and it is missing.

Why it happens
The file is valid EN 16931 but was not built for the Peppol network, which additionally mandates the process identifier.
How to fix it
Set BT-23 — cbc:ProfileID in UBL — to the Peppol billing process identifier, normally urn:fdc:peppol.eu:2017:poacc:billing:01:1.0.
The official rule
EN 16931, EnglishBusiness process MUST be provided.
