This field is crucial for identifying the type of invoice being processed, such as an Invoice (INV), Credit Note (CDN), or Debit Note (DBN).
  Cause:
  
  Missing Invoice Type: The most common cause of this error is that the invoice type has not been specified in the e-invoice data. This could be due to a configuration issue or a missing entry in the invoice creation process.
  Incorrect Mapping: If the mapping between the SAP system and the e-invoice format is incorrect, it may lead to the omission of required fields.
  Data Entry Error: There may be a data entry error where the invoice type was not filled in during the invoice creation process.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Invoice Creation: Ensure that when creating the invoice, the invoice type is correctly specified. This can usually be done in the transaction where the invoice is created (e.g., MIRO for invoice verification).
  Review Configuration: Check the configuration settings for e-invoicing in SAP. Ensure that the mapping for the invoice type is correctly set up in the e-invoice output configuration.
  Update the E-Invoice Structure: If you have access to the e-invoice template or structure, ensure that the 'Typ' field is correctly populated based on the type of document being processed.
  Test with Sample Data: Create a test invoice with all required fields filled, including the invoice type, to see if the error persists.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to e-invoicing for any specific requirements or updates that may affect the invoice type field.

  E-Invoicing Regulations: Be aware of the legal requirements for e-invoicing in your region, as these may dictate how invoices must be structured and what fields are mandatory.
