A payment means is expected on the EXTENDED-CTC-FR profile

The extended profile of the French base expects a payment means to be filled in on the invoice.

Only the issuer holds this value: Factlint reports it and never fabricates it. Test your invoice to find out whether it is affected.

Why this error happens

This rule comes from the FNFE Schematron package, not from the European standard: an invoice perfectly compliant with EN 16931 can trigger it as soon as it targets the French extended profile.

How to fix it

Fill the payment means in from your system. The value is commercial data that the document does not carry anywhere else.
