Saudi Arabia: UUIDs

You must include UUID information for Saudi Arabian documents.

In Saudi Arabia, each e-invoice or credit note contains a UUID. This is generated in the source system alongside the original e-invoice or credit and sent to Vertex e-Invoicing.

Use the UUID element to model this information.
