What is NO-R-002?
NO-R-002 is a fatal validation rule defined in the EHF (Norway) specification (NOR national rules). It validates the CompanyID element under Party > PartyLegalEntity in the UBL invoice XML.
When this rule fires, the invoice is rejected by Peppol access points and never reaches the buyer.
