INVOICE_NOT_REGISTERED_NO_PDF

When it happens

The invoice is under VeriFactu and is not registered with the AEAT, so it has no PDF: the PDF carries the QR code of that registration. Its registration was rejected before reaching the AEAT, or it was voided without ever being registered. verifactu.error_message says why. Answered at once: this invoice will never have a PDF.

How to fix it

Read the invoice's verifactu block and act on the rejection; see handling AEAT rejections. To deliver the invoice, issue it again once the cause is fixed. You can still email it without the PDF with attach_pdf: false.

Retry

Do not retry. The outcome is final: sending the same request again gets the same answer.
