Why your e-reporting flows will be rejected even if your XML is valid

  • Beyond technical validity, deeper checks are performed: The Public Invoicing Portal (PPF) conducts extensive validation layers including applicative, semantic, and functional checks, leading to rejections even when the XML is technically well-formed. Common rejection codes like REJ_SEMAN (business logic inconsistency) or REJ_UNI (duplicate data) highlight issues beyond basic XML structure.
  • Architectural flaws upstream are the primary cause: Many rejections stem from fundamental design problems in the software generating the e-reporting data. This includes failing to distinguish between transaction and payment, prematurely aggregating data before detailed corrections are possible, and lacking proper versioning for corrective flows.
  • Lack of regulatory understanding in the data model: If the software doesn’t natively incorporate critical regulatory qualifications, such as identifying B2C vs. international B2B operations, the declarant’s VAT regime, or their role in a transaction, the generated e-reporting flows will be inherently fragile and prone to systematic rejections.
