When it happens
You tried to enable VeriFactu in production for a company that has no signed representation. In production the signed representation is a precondition, because it is what lets BeeL. submit to the tax authority on the company's behalf. Sandbox does not require it.
How to fix it
Generate, sign and submit the company's representation, then enable VeriFactu 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.
