Italy eInvoice submission to SDI

[SAPSupport]

Consider the below scenario-

The invoice is created and sent to the SDI. If the SDI rejects the XML due to error such as: Wrong SDI code or wrong VAT number, is it possible to regenerate the XML without having to cancel the invoice?

The wrong SDI code can be fixed in master data, then it is not necessary to cancel the invoice.

But in case of VAT number, if the wrong VAT Number was chosen in additional data for first line item in accounting document must be checked. In case the VAT number is filled here, then invoice needs to be cancelled as it is not possible to change the VAT number after posting.

Answer to this question is

Do you know if there is a specific standard field into Vendor and Customer Master data in which store the SDI account identification number?

Answer:

Yes, in SAP, the SDI account identification number for Italy e-invoicing is typically stored in the Customer and Vendor Master Data under specific fields.

For Customer Master Data (XD03/VD03)

• Standard Field: Tax Number 3 (Field: STCD3)
• Table: KNA1 (General Data in Customer Master)
• Field Name: STCD3

Alternatively, it can be stored in:

• Partner Function in Customer Master (XD02/VD02) – Using a custom field in the partner function for invoice recipients.

For Vendor Master Data (XK03/FK03)

• Standard Field: Tax Number 3 (Field: STCD3)
• Table: LFA1 (Vendor Master General Section)
• Field Name: STCD3

If SAP is using the SAP Document Compliance (formerly eDocument framework), there might be a specific configuration for the SDI recipient code storage.

Thank you! We have also an other optional information to fill in. It concerns just the Vendor. It's optional since not all the Vendors have this information. But for the one who has that, it's mandatory to fill in into e-document/e-invoice. I'm talking about Statement of Intent. Information is longer 25 digits (17-7). I supose i this case just a custom field can meet the requirements, right?

If the incorrect SDI code is identified, it can be corrected in the master data without canceling the invoice.

However, for the VAT number, if the wrong VAT number was selected in the additional data for the first line item in the accounting document, it must be reviewed carefully. If the VAT number is populated in this field, the invoice must be canceled, as it cannot be changed after posting.
