Hello,

You will need our technical specification in order to successfully develop an interface with you. If you can please supply your email address, I will send it to you.

Hi @snicholas,

if you are referring to the D1 Technical Interface Specification, I already have that. However, I didn’t found there or on this forum what is causing this error.

Best regards!
My mail: kristijankoncar@gmail.com

I have send you our latest specification via email.

SDN

I would hope to have the test account set up for you soon Kristijan - apologies for the delay with this.

SDN

Thanks for specs and account! No worries, you must have a lot of work.
I tried to submit the same request with the test account, but it failed with the same error:
“Invalid Authoriser Designation for LLP incorporation”

I cannot find any information which can me help with this. It looks to that problem is related to submited data (Authoriser section), but I checked and all data inside is valid. Do you have any idea why is this happening?

Thanks! Sincerely, Kristijan

You have my email address from the test account I have just sent you Kristijan. Please send me your full submission and response XML test data and I will have a look at it for you.

SDN

Agents can’t authorise LLPs, only members and solicitors.

Here’s an old post from a familiar face: http://xmlforum.aws.chdev.org/t/llp-agent-as-authoriser/277

Thanks mate, you helped me a lot! I am not from the UK and it is hard for me to understand how you gov works.

Best regards,
Kristijan
