A document-level charge has VAT category O (“Not subject to VAT”) while the invoice contains a seller (BT-31), tax representative (BT-63) or buyer (BT-48) VAT identifier. Remove the VAT identifiers or use the correct VAT category for the charge. This is an error: the invoice is rejected until it is fixed.
This error needs information only you have, so it is not repaired automatically. The free check shows every finding in the file with its location; if other errors in the same file are in the automatic set (totals, VAT breakdown, rounding, element order), the result page offers the corrected file for 9 €.
