Context
ANAF (the Romanian tax authority) e-invoicing is mandatory for B2B as of 2024. All three Socrate products feature native SPV integration. Here are the top 10 common errors.
1. Invalid Tax ID or missing RO prefix
Validation occurs during partner saving. The RO prefix is mandatory for VAT-registered entities.
2. Missing CPV code on line items
Set a default CPV code per item in the master data.
3. Mixed VAT with different rates
Each line must have the correct rate (19%, 9%, 5%, 0%). Verify the VAT matrix at the item level.
4. Missing framework contract reference
Add the contract number/series to the invoice header.
5. Shipping address ≠ billing address
Explicitly set both in the UBL 2.1 XML file.
6. Resubmission after rejection
Correct, regenerate, and resubmit. Socrate maintains the full history.
7. Incorrect reversals (Credit Notes)
Use the dedicated function with a complete reference to the original invoice.
8. Central Bank exchange rates for foreign currency
Configure a daily automatic update.
9. Line discount vs total discount
Line-level discounts are mandatory in the XML structure.
10. Non-UCUM units of measure
Use standard UCUM codes exclusively.
