Validation message

"Payment account identifier" (BT-84) soll eine korrekte IBAN enthalten, wenn in "Payment means type code" (BT-81) mit dem Code 58 SEPA als Zahlungsmittel gefordert wird.

Explanation

The invoice asks for a SEPA credit transfer, but the account given is not a valid IBAN, or is missing: its structure or check digits are wrong. A payment to this account may fail. Common causes are typos or a national account number in place of the IBAN. If the number looks like a valid IBAN, the invoice may label it as another kind of account number. If the invoice carries card details instead of bank details, the payment method is labelled wrongly: a card payment is not a SEPA credit transfer.

How to fix

Compare the IBAN with bank details of the seller you already know and ask the seller for a corrected invoice. Transfer only once the bank details are clear.
