PINT AE validation rule for UAE e-invoices

What it means

When a payee is stated, the invoice must give the payee's name. The payee must be a different party from the seller.

How to fix it

Add the payee's name, or remove the payee when the seller receives the payment.

The official wording of this rule is in the PINT AE specification published by OpenPeppol.
