Error: ESEF.2.6.1.reportIncorrectlyPlacedInPackage

  • Error location 

This error message is located in Taxonomypackage Check:


  • Error explanation

When downloading the ESEF package from the ParsePort Platform, the .zip file has a predefined name that is embedded in the package itself.


The error occurs when the ESEF package name does not follow the naming convention recommended by ESMA.

  • How to solve it

Check the name of your ESEF package. 

The naming convention, as described in Guidance 2.6.3 in ESMA’s manual, should be:


LEI CODE-end of reporting period-version-language.zip


E.g.: 1A2B3C4D5E12345-2024-12-31-0-en.zip


You should always make sure that your ESEF package follows the above naming convention. 


The most common issues are:

  • (1), (2), (x) being added at the end of the file name automatically upon downloading several packages in the same folder.
  • Manual renaming of the ZIP file to include the Company name. 

In case you are required to change the name of your ESEF package, please follow the steps in this article or reach out to support@parseport.com for support.
