Related information

In the FinanzOnline Validation Rules page you can set up special rules for verifying the details resp. the address data. These rules can then be assigned to a prefix, or to specific customers, vendors and contacts whose address differs for various reasons and should explicitly not be verified. For more information, see Setup, VAT Reg. No. Prefixes and Working with the App, Validation.

Note

The details resp. the address data are only verified during a level 2 validation.
The VAT Reg. No. Validation Templates, which can be set up by default in Business Central, are ignored by the FinanzOnline validation resp. are irrelevant for the FinanzOnline validation of customers, vendors and contacts.

Important

If the settings of a rule are changed, this does not immediately affect the master data. The changes only take effect after a new validation (e.g. a batch validation).

A suggestion of useful rules can be created via the Download action.
