When processing orders you might come across the "Hard 120412 - Ups account number that was provided as the payment method is missing or invalid" error.



This error is shown when the 3rd party billing information is incorrect in either:

  • The order level
  • The third party Billing Account on the Client level
  • Any of those is wrong and the "Enable Order Level TPL Billing" feature is using the wrong option


Depending on the case the solution is different.
