  The SAP error message EDOCUMENT_ES_SII010 indicates that there is an issue with the tax number associated with a specific company code in the system. This error typically arises in the context of electronic document processing, particularly in relation to the Spanish SII (Suministro Inmediato de Información) reporting requirements.
  Cause:
  The error is triggered when the system detects that the tax number (NIF - Número de Identificación Fiscal) for the specified company code is either missing, invalid, or incorrectly formatted. This can happen due to:
  
  Missing Tax Number: The tax number has not been entered in the system for the specified company code.
  Invalid Format: The tax number does not conform to the expected format (e.g., incorrect length, invalid characters).
  Incorrect Company Code: The company code specified in the transaction does not have a valid tax number assigned.

  Assign Tax Number to Company Code:
  
  If the tax number is missing, you will need to assign a valid tax number to the company code. This can be done in the configuration settings.
