Validation message

Lorsqu’une note a pour code sujet « BAR » (cbc:SubjectCode), la valeur associée (cbc:Note) doit être l’une des suivantes : B2B, B2BINT, B2C, B2CINT, OUTOFSCOPE, ARCHIVEONLY. Valeur fournie : " ". Veuillez corriger la valeur ou retirer le code sujet « BAR ».

Explanation

A note with subject code BAR states the type of transaction. Its content must be exactly one of these values: B2B, B2BINT, B2C, B2CINT, OUTOFSCOPE or ARCHIVEONLY. The requirement comes from the French e-invoicing rules, not from EN 16931.

How to fix

Ask the seller for a corrected invoice whose BAR note contains only one of these values, with no further text. For a transaction between French businesses this is B2B.
