Validate Cedente Prestatore
validate_cedente_prestatoreValidate and construct the seller (CedentePrestatore) block for FatturaPA invoices, checking required fields, fiscal codes, and VAT data before XML generation.
Instructions
Validate and build the CedentePrestatore (seller) block for FatturaPA.
Use this as step 4 in the invoice generation workflow, after build_transmission_header() and before validate_cessionario(). Call get_regime_fiscale_codes() first if you need to look up the RF code.
Gruppo IVA (VAT-group) sellers: when id_codice is a VAT-group IdFiscaleIVA, pass codice_fiscale set to the Codice Fiscale of the specific participating member company issuing this invoice, never the group's own CF. This mirrors the buyer-side rule enforced by SdI scarto code 00327 (see mcp_fattura_elettronica_it.sdi.notifications.SCARTO_CODE_REFERENCE); SdI does not publish an equivalent seller-side control code, but the same distinction applies structurally.
Validates: either denominazione or both nome+cognome must be provided (mutually exclusive); regime_fiscale must be a valid RF01–RF19 code; Italian Partita IVA (id_paese='IT') must be exactly 11 digits; codice_fiscale, if provided, must be 16 alphanumeric characters (individuals) or 11 digits (companies/VAT groups).
On success returns {'CedentePrestatore': {...}} ready to pass to generate_fattura_xml(). On failure returns {'error': ''} listing all validation issues joined by '; '.
