14. The following errors are displayed:
    Item 10: Error in business configuration for processing type code; report incident
    Item 10: Error in business configuration for property movement direction code

The error "Error in business configuration for processing type code; report incident" occurs because the Product Type Code was not passed in the payload.

You also need to pass the Product type code:

1 Material

2 Service

3 Individual Product

For a Material for example you need to pass it as follows :

<TypeCode>1</TypeCode>

The error "Error in business configuration for property movement direction code" occurs because the tag ReceivablesPropertyMovementDirectionCode, is used to determine the type of item it should be, invoice or credit memo:

1 - Credit Memo

2- Invoice

If you want to create a Credit Memo Item you need to pass the following tag for the Item:

<ReceivablesPropertyMovementDirectionCode>1</ReceivablesPropertyMovementDirectionCode>

Please note that you should also not pass negative signs in the values. Since the ReceivablesPropertyMovementDirectionCode is passed as 1 the system will determine it as a Credit Memo Item and automatically use a negative sign.

You need to adapt the payload of your file accordingly and then upload it again to update the External Customer Invoice Request that was created.
