The item 'Par amount' in List of assets, should be positive, with the exception of bank overdrafts (S.06.02, EIOPA rule BV1199)

The rule in plain words

EIOPA writes it out as separate checks, one for each table or return it covers. Line4 Check runs three of them (BV1199-2 to BV1199-5), and a failure names the one that failed.

What to do if your return fails it

1. 01Open the tables below and find the cells the rule reads.
2. 02Look for a value below zero in these cells, such as an amount entered as a negative number.
3. 03It runs only when your filing indicators mark S.06.02 as reported.
4. 04This is a warning. It does not stop the return on its own, but your supervisor may ask you to explain it.

The cells it reads

Which returns it applies to

Line4 Check runs it on quarterly solo (QRS), quarterly group (QRG) and quarterly branch (QRB) returns on EIOPA taxonomy 2.10.0. EIOPA applies it to quarterly branch (QRB), annual branch (ARB), financial stability group (QFG), quarterly group (QRG), annual group (ARG), quarterly solo (QRS) and annual solo (ARS) returns, as a warning.
