  Invalid GSTIN: The GSTIN provided may not be valid. This could be due to:
  
  Typographical errors.
  The GSTIN not being registered or active.
  The GSTIN belonging to a different state than the one specified in the invoice.
  
  
  
  Incorrect Node Structure: The error indicates that the GSTIN is not valid under the specified node 'DispDtls', which means that the structure of the XML or data being sent may not conform to the expected schema.
  
  
  Format Issues: The GSTIN must follow a specific format (15 characters, alphanumeric) and any deviation from this can trigger the error.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Verify GSTIN: Check the GSTIN for accuracy. Ensure that:
  
  It is correctly entered without any spaces or special characters.
  It is a valid GSTIN by cross-referencing with the GST portal.

  Correct Node Structure: Review the XML or data structure being sent to ensure that the GSTIN is placed correctly under the 'DispDtls' node. Make sure that the data conforms to the expected schema.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation or the e-invoicing guidelines provided by the GST authorities to ensure compliance with the required formats and structures.
  
  
  Testing: After making corrections, test the invoice submission again to see if the error persists.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  GSTIN Format: The GSTIN is a 15-digit number, where the first two digits represent the state code, followed by a 10-digit PAN number, a letter, and a number.
  E-invoicing in India: E-invoicing is mandatory for businesses above a certain turnover threshold in India. It requires compliance with specific formats and standards set by the GST Council.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes or updates that may address known issues or provide patches related to e-invoicing and GSTIN validation.
