Business process identifier is missing
What it means
Peppol requires every invoice to declare which business process it belongs to (BT-23), even though base EN 16931 does not. Access Points and receiving ERPs use it to route the document to the right workflow. For ordinary billing the value is a fixed constant, so a document missing it is almost always a generator that never emitted the field rather than a business decision.
Can it be fixed automatically?
Nothing about your business is needed to fix this — the correct value is a constant, a code list entry, or is already present in the document.
This one can be repaired automatically. The API applies the fix, re-validates, and reports exactly what changed with before and after values.
How to fix it
Set the Peppol billing process identifier 'urn:fdc:peppol.eu:2017:poacc:billing:01:1.0'. No business data is involved.
