AEAT rejected the record of the original invoice and it is not on file: fix and resubmit it before correcting it, or the corrective would be recorded without the invoice it corrects.

Category: Invoices


HTTP status	`422` Unprocessable Content
Retry	After fixing the cause

When it happens

The original's VeriFactu record was rejected by the AEAT and has not been resubmitted, so the original is not in the AEAT's books. A corrective would be recorded without the invoice it corrects.

How to fix it

Fix and resubmit the original first, then create the corrective.

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.
