Reproduced failure and correction
Tested on 2 November 2026 with the production SaxonC-HE 13.1 / saxonche 13.1.1 engine, xrechnung mode, UBL. The XSD passes; the report then contains BR-DE-17. Restoring this fragment makes the complete original invoice pass the selected checks.

None. Counts include distinct error and warning codes; the target code is excluded.
Precise mutated XPath: /*/cbc:InvoiceTypeCode.
Before: triggers this rule
<ns0:InvoiceTypeCode xmlns:ns0="urn:oasis:names:specification:ubl:schema:xsd:CommonBasicComponents-2">325</ns0:InvoiceTypeCode>
After: passes
<ns0:InvoiceTypeCode xmlns:ns0="urn:oasis:names:specification:ubl:schema:xsd:CommonBasicComponents-2">380</ns0:InvoiceTypeCode>
The context shown is part of a complete invoice; it is not a standalone invoice. Mutation: value at /*/cbc:InvoiceTypeCode. The passing baseline is validated with the selected pinned package. UBL examples use a controlled single-line adaptation of the official XRechnung example; the CII example uses the official EN 16931 baseline.

Repair the source data and exporter, then validate the complete invoice again with the same package. Review every remaining error and warning; a passing rule is not a guarantee of recipient acceptance.
