Appointing New officer as corporate

Confirmation Statement (New Annual Return)
1

Hello,
Am trying to add new officer as corporate, but I keep on getting this error message. OfficerAppointment 9999 fatal Cannot provide person authorising details after the commencement date.
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks.

I suspect you are supplying a person as authoriser for the corporate appointment (its hard to know without seeing the XML).

If so, please remove the authoriser elements.

Yes Mutawer,

As I explained, you need to remove these elements.
