CORRECTIVE_BAD_DEBT_TOO_EARLY

When it happens

A bad-debt corrective (R3) was requested less than six months after the original's operation date. error.details carries earliest_date and counted_from. One year applies instead when the previous year's turnover exceeded 6,010,121.04 €, which is the issuer's to apply.

How to fix it

Retry on or after earliest_date.
