The European Banking Authority has issued a revised list of validation rules under its Implementing Technical Standards on supervisory reporting, highlighting rules that have been deactivated because they are incorrect or cause IT issues. EU competent authorities are informed that submissions under the ITS should not be formally validated against the deactivated rules. Alongside the revised list, the EBA published a small validation package containing a micro taxonomy package and Data Point Model validation rule deactivation update scripts. These materials are required from release 4.0 for each deactivation exercise to ensure rules are deactivated consistently in both the taxonomy and the Data Point Model.
