What does DK-R-008 mean? For Danish Suppliers PaymentID is mandatory and MUST start with 01#, 04# or 15# (kortartkode), and PayeeFinancialAccount/ID (Giro kontonummer) is mandatory and must be 7 or 8 numerical characters long, when payment means equals 50 (Giro)

Why did my invoice fail DK-R-008?

For Danish suppliers using payment means code 50 (Giro), the PaymentID is mandatory and must start with 01#, 04# or 15# (the kortartkode, i.e. Danish payment-slip card type code), and the PayeeFinancialAccount/ID (the Giro account number) is mandatory and must be 7 or 8 numerical characters. These constraints match the format of the Danish Giro payment-slip system so payments can be matched automatically. In UBL these are cac:PaymentMeans/cbc:PaymentID and cac:PayeeFinancialAccount/cbc:ID.
