What this error means

This is a French BR-FR rule from the AFNOR XP Z12-012 standard - a national requirement for invoices exchanged through France's e-invoicing network (PDP platforms) under the September 2026 mandate. Typical French specifics: the seller's SIREN (scheme 0002), mandatory payment mentions (late penalties, recovery costs, discount terms), and the invoicing framework code. The official rule text above is in French - the referenced BT fields identify what to add or fix.

How to fix it

  1. Read the official text - each sub-rule names the exact business term (BT) involved.
  2. Check the seller identifiers: SIREN in CompanyID with schemeID="0002".
  3. Check the mandatory French invoice notes (BT-22 with PMT/PMD/AAB prefixes).
  4. Validate against the fr profile in our API to see all French findings at once.
