In my haste this morning due to other pressing obligations, I
incorrectly indicated duplicates were not allowed in BBIEs, when in
fact they are.

Because BBIEs are used within different ABIEs they are, of course,
allowed to have the same name (and in fact many do).

Having just implemented these tests, no problems in the models are
reported. This is very confusing.
A visual inspection of the Common Library spreadsheet finds an ASBIE
on row 354:
TransportContract - Consignment. Transport_ Contract. Contract - ASBIE
... which points to the Contract ASBIE, and an ABIE on row 1931:
TransportContract - Transport Contract. Details - ABIE
... which is pointed to from Transport Execution Status, but no
references to any qualified ABIE. Column C is empty in all rows. So
in the spreadsheets exported on Friday there is no duplicate UBL Name
for ABIEs, but in the schemas exported in the same package on Friday
there is a duplicate. I am trying to understand the inconsistency
between the models and the schemas in order to determine if more
tests are needed of the artefacts that have been exported from the system.
When you say above "we eliminated Contract Type ABIE which is
qualified with Transport term", is that something you have just done
since Saturday, or is this something that was done weeks ago after
consulting with Andrew?
Thank you for your guidance. This confusing situation is occupying a
lot of time to try and determine how to guide Arianna in order to
remove the problem from the schemas.
