Composite Element '<composite id>' repeating instance count exceeded in '<segment id>'

Description

The composite element with composite id has been defined to repeat multiple times at the assigned position within the data segment with segment id, but the maximum number of times allowed has been exceeded in the document.  Repeating instances of composite elements are separated by the repetition separator.

For example, for the purpose of this example, the following data segment BGM (UN/EDIFACT) has been defined as follows:

REF   ID    NAME                              RPT REQ   TYPE   MIN/MAX

01    C002  Document/Message Name ------------  2 C
 |
 | 01 1001 Document/Message Name, coded           C     AN     1/3
 | 02 1131 Code List Qualifier                    C     AN     1/3
 | 03 3055 Code List Responsible Agency, coded    C     AN     1/3
 | 04 1000 Document/Message Name                  C     AN     1/35
 +--------------------------------------------

02    1004 Document/Message Number                C     AN     1/35
03    1225 Message Function, coded              4 C     AN     1/3
04    4343 Response Type, coded                   C     AN     1/3

The above data segment has the composite element C002 repeat two times (RPT=2).  The following sample data in the document generates the error because there is an extra composite data ("382:23:4:DOC3") instead of only the required two.  The repetition separator in this example is "*" (asterisk).
