Amazon MWS API Request Reports Error

I am trying to retrieve an Order Report via the MWS API. To do this I have to submit a report request. No matter how I prepare the request I am getting the same error:

The service cannot handle the request. Request is invalid.

I am using the Amazon Client Library. tis is the code we are using to make the call:

public InvokeSubmitReportResponse InvokeSubmitOrderReportRequest(DateTime startDate, DateTime endDate)
{

    RequestReportRequest callrequest = new RequestReportRequest();
    RequestReportResponse callresponse = new RequestReportResponse();
    InvokeSubmitReportResponse response = new InvokeSubmitReportResponse();
    callrequest.Merchant = sellerId;
    callrequest.MarketplaceIdList = new IdList();
    callrequest.MarketplaceIdList.Id = new List<string>(new string[] { marketPlaceId });
    callrequest.StartDate = startDate;
    callrequest.EndDate = endDate;
    callrequest.ReportType = "_GET_ORDERS_DATA_";

    try
    {
        callresponse = service.RequestReport(callrequest);
        response.CallStatus = true;
        response.EndDate = callresponse.RequestReportResult.ReportRequestInfo.EndDate;
        response.ReportProcessingStatus = callresponse.RequestReportResult.ReportRequestInfo.ReportProcessingStatus;
        response.ReportRequestId = callresponse.RequestReportResult.ReportRequestInfo.ReportRequestId;
        response.ReportType = callresponse.RequestReportResult.ReportRequestInfo.ReportType;
        response.Scheduled = callresponse.RequestReportResult.ReportRequestInfo.Scheduled;
        response.StartDate = callresponse.RequestReportResult.ReportRequestInfo.StartDate;
        response.SubmittedDate = callresponse.RequestReportResult.ReportRequestInfo.SubmittedDate;


    }
    catch (MarketplaceWebServiceException ex)
    {
        response.CallStatus = false;
        response.Error = ex;
    }

    return response;
}

In this documentation it tells me that the only required parameter is ReportType. If I comment out all the other parameters in the request I get a SellerId is required error. If I submit a request with just the ReportType and Merchant I get the The service cannot handle the request. Request is invalid. error, as I do if I pass all the paramters I want to pass. I have checked the account identifying parameters and they are all correct.

Can anyone advise what the problem could be?

Update

I get the same error when using the Amazon scratchpad so I am assuming its a bug on their side.

_GET_ORDERS_DATA_ is also known as "Scheduled XML Order Report". I haven't tried, but I believe you cannot request a report of that type. Scheduled reports are meant to be used with the ManageReportSchedule call, which will let you create such a schedule. Further processing of such a report (GetReport calls etc.) is the same as with requested reports.
