## When it happens

The company is not activated in the environment of the request (test or live), so it cannot issue fiscal documents there. You receive it as one of the `error.details.blockers[]` of an `EMISSION_NOT_READY` response. Drafts and proformas are not affected.

## How to fix it

Activate the company in that environment, then issue again.

## Retry

Not as is: the same request fails the same way. Fix the cause described above, then send the request again, under a new `Idempotency-Key` if the body changed.

## Returned by

The operations where this code is most likely. The list is not exhaustive.

- [`POST /v1/companies/{company_id}/invoices/{invoice_id}/issue`](/invoices/issueCompanyInvoice)
- [`POST /v1/companies/{company_id}/invoices`](/invoices/createCompanyInvoice)
