What happens if an e-Invoice fails validation?
Table of Contents
If an e-Invoice fails validation, the submission will not be treated as a successfully validated e-Invoice. The taxpayer or integrated system should review the error or rejection details, correct the relevant data, and submit the invoice again where appropriate.
Businesses should design their workflows to capture validation errors and route them to the person responsible for correction. Repeated failures can often be reduced by validating required fields and mapping rules before submission.
Key points
- Review the validation response and error details.
- Correct the data that caused the failure.
- Resubmit the corrected e-Invoice where appropriate.
- Track failed submissions so they are not overlooked.
- Use pre-submission checks to reduce recurring errors.
