Validation Error Types

Blocking and Non-blocking – represents the severity property from the EIOPA xbrl validations settings. It should match the category of error that you would see in regulator portal validations.

NCA Plausibility – represents a Plausibility check that is performed by your local NCA (regulator) after your xbrl file has passed the initial Blocking errors check e.g. if you are an Irish authorised insurer, any Central Bank of Ireland Plausibility test that is loaded into Tabular and fails against your data, the result will be ‘NCA Plausibility’. Although your file may have passed the EIOPA checks and been accepted initially, the local regulator may require you to resubmit based on failed plausibility checks.

Other NCA Plausibility – represents a Plausibility check that is performed by an NCA other than your local NCA eg if you are a UK authorised insurer, if a Central Bank of Ireland Plausibility test that is loaded into Tabular and fails against your data, the result will be ‘Other NCA Plausibility’.

SIIS warning – any other tests in the validations that are not in the above four categories (i.e. regulator specified in some way) i.e. tests that we have added (from reviewing LOGS, annotated templates, Q&A etc.)
