BRA:	EXPECTED R17 AMT(S) = ZEROES

IF THE RESULT OF SUBTRACTING THE R90 ORIGINAL DUTY/TAX/FREE AMOUNT FROM THE RECON DUTY/TAX/FREE AMOUNT EQUALS ZERO OR LESS THAN ZERO, THE PAYABLE AMOUNTS FOR THE CORRESPONDING FIGURE MUST ALSO EQUAL ZERO IN THE R17 RECORD. IF THE R17 RECORD IS GREATER THAN ZERO, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT. AS ALL THREE AMOUNTS (DUTY, TAXES, OR FEES) APPEAR IN BOTH THE R90 AND R17 RECORDS, MAKE SURE TO CHECK ALL THREE ELEMENTS IF THIS ERROR MESSAGE IS GENERATED FOR AN ENTRY.

VGZ:	FEI NOT FOUND ON ACS

THIS MESSAGE OCCURS WHEN A FILER QUERIES ABI TO DETERMINE WHETHER AN FDA ESTABLISHMENT NUMBER (FEI) IS ON FILE. ALL TWELVE NUMBERS MUST BE USED INCLUDING LEADING ZEROS. THE FILER USES THE FDPP-10 RECORD SHOWN ON PAGE OGQ-14 OF THE CATAIR WITH A "Q" IN THE ACTION CODE. THIS MESSAGE IS RETURNED WHEN THE FEI NUMBER QUERIED IS NOT FOUND IN ACS. A COMMON REASON IS BECAUSE THE FILER IS NOT QUERYING ALL 12 NUMBERS. THEY SHOULD RESEND THE QUERY USING ALL NUMBERS INCLUDING LEADING ZEROS.

NOTE: THIS MESSAGE ALSO APPLIES TO THE C18 RECORD.

029:	INVALID FOREIGN PORT CODE

THE FOREIGN PORT CODE (AKA SCHEDULE K) NUMBER HAS BEEN OMITTED, IS IN IMPROPER FORMAT OR NOT ON THE FOREIGN PORT CODE FILE. CHECK THE RFDL FILE USING THE THREE DIGIT COUNTRY CODE FOUND IN THE RFJL FILE. THE PROPER FORMAT IS A FIVE-DIGIT NUMERIC. IF MODE OF TRANSPORTATION IS 12, THEN THE FOREIGN PORT CODE MUST BE FROM A PORT IN EITHER MEXICO OR CANADA.

VIC:	DT HS7: BLANK VIN POSITION: 1

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED WHEN AN ENTRY SUMMARY TRANSACTION IS USED TO REPORT DOT DATA VIA ABI. IF THE FILER USES THE DT03 TO REPORT VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBERS (VIN), THE FIRST VIN REPORTED MUST BE TRANSMITTED IN POSITIONS 5-21 OF THIS RECORD.

Z29:	HTS REQUIRES FORMAL ENTRY

CERTAIN HTS NUMBERS WITH A VALUE GREATER THAN $250.00 REQUIRES A FORMAL ENTRY TYPE. APPENDIX K OF THE CATAIR (AS WELL AS PERIODIC ADMINISTRATIVE MESSAGES) LIST THE TARIFF NUMBERS THAT ARE SUBJECT TO THE $250 LIMITATION. ON THE TARIFF FILE, THESE TARIFF NUMBERS ARE CODED "MIS-REQ" WITH A VALUE OF "2". IF AN INFORMAL ENTRY SUMMARY IS TRANSMITTED TO ABI WITH A VALUE OVER $250 ON A LINE CONTAINING A TYPE "2" TARIFF NUMBER, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED. NOTE: IF THE HSAS FILE SHOWS MIS-REQ WITH BOTH A "0" AND A "2", THE "0" CONDITION APPLIES AND ERROR MESSAGE 51D WILL BE GENERATED RATHER THAN THIS ERROR MESSAGE. IMPORT SPECIALIST NOTE: SEE ADMINISTRATIVE MESSAGE @

512:	TOTAL CVD DOES NOT MATCH EST.

IF THE TOTAL COUNTERVAILING DUTY REPORTED ON EACH LINE OF THE SUMMARY IN THE 60 RECORD IS WITHIN $2.99 (PLUS OR MINUS) OF THE CORRECT CALCULATED AMOUNT OF THE LINE, ABI WILL ACCEPT THE LINE AMOUNT. HOWEVER, IF THE SUMMARY HAS MORE THAN ONE LINE WITH COUNTERVAILING DUTY DUE, THE GRAND TOTAL OF ALL COUNTERVAILING DUTY AMOUNTS MUST ALSO BE WITHIN $2.99 (PLUS OR MINUS) OF THE SYSTEM-CALCULATED AMOUNT. EVEN IF THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF COUNTERVAILING DUTY (90 REC, POS 27-37) IS EQUAL TO THE VARIOUS LINE AMOUNT TOTALS, ABI WILL REJECT THE SUMMARY IF THE TOTAL AMOUNT TRANSMITTED IS NOT WITHIN THE STATED TOLERANCE AS COMPARED TO THE CALCULATED TOTAL COUNTERVAILING DUTY AMOUNT.

J02:	AWB PREFIX NOT ON FILE

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO A CARGO RELEASE DATA INPUT TRANSACTION (APPLICATION HI). THE AIR CARRIER PREFIX IS FOUND ON THE CARL 3/ FILE. IF THE THREE POSITION NUMERIC CODE, TRANSMITTED IN THE HA RECORD IN POS 15-17 (FIRST THREE CHARACTERS OF THE MASTER AIR WAYBILL) IS NOT ON THE CARRIER FILE, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED.

69A:	ORIGIN COUNTRY/TARIFF NBR INVALID

THIS ERROR MESSAGE RESULTS WHEN A REQUIREMENT BETWEEN THE TARIFF NUMBER REPORTED IN THE 50 REC, POS 4-13, AND THE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN REPORTED IN THE 40 REC, POS 6-7, IS VIOLATED. THE MOST COMMON EXAMPLE OF THIS WOULD BE THE USE OF ANY COUNTRY OTHER THAN "US" WITH TARIFF NUMBERS IN THE 98010010NN RANGE. ALSO, CHAPTER 9999 NUMBERS MAY BE SPECIFICALLY LINKED TO EITHER CANADA OR MEXICO. IF THE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN IS NOT APPROPRIATE TO THE TARIFF NUMBER IN CHAPTER 99, THIS MESSAGE WILL ALSO RESULT. A LESS COMMON EXAMPLE WOULD THE ATTEMPTED USE OF CERTIFIED HAND-LOOM TEXTILE ARTICLES (AS FOLKLORE ARTICLES) WITH A COUNTRY OF ORIGIN THAT IS NOT ONE OF THE ACCEPTABLE COUNTRIES FOR CERTIFIED FOLKLORE ARTICLES. PAGE ENS-48 OF THE CATAIR LISTS THE CURRENTLY ACCEPTABLE COUNTRIES OF ORIGIN FOR SELECTED TARIFF NUMBERS (NOTE 2).

IF THE FILER ATTEMPTS TO REMOVE AN ENTRY FROM A STATEMENT BUT THE ENTRY IN QUESTION IS NOT CURRENTLY SCHEDULED FOR PAYMENT BY STATEMENT, THIS MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED.

EJV:	INBOX IND MUST BE 'R' OR SPACE

THIS ERROR MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN AUTOMATED INVOICE TRANSACTION (APPLICATION CI). THE C01 REC, POS 56, PROVIDES THE FILER AN OPPORTUNITY TO INDICATE IF THE INVOICE BEING TRANSMITTED IS AN INITIAL INPUT (SPACE FILL THE POSITION) OR IS IN RESPONSE TO AN ABI REJECTION FROM CUSTOMS WHICH REQUESTED THE TRANSMISSION OF THE INSTANT INVOICE. IN THE LATTER CASE, THE ACCEPTABLE VALUE FOR THIS FIELD IS "R". ANY OTHER CHARACTER TRANSMITTED IN THIS FIELD WILL GENERATE THIS ERROR MESSAGE.

691:	INVALID PAY BASIS INDICATOR

THE STATEMENT ADD/DELETE APPLICATION (CODE HP) IS USED TO REMOVE ENTRIES FROM A STATEMENT (INDICATOR = 1) OR TO SCHEDULE AN ENTRY FOR A NEW PAYMENT DUE DATE. IF THE LATTER IS DESIRED, THREE POSSIBLE PAYMENT TYPE INDICATORS ARE ALLOWED. INDICATOR "2"  IS FOR A BROKER STATEMENT. INDICATOR "3" IS FOR AN IMPORTER STATEMENT, GROUPED BY A SINGLE IMPORTER NUMBER. INDICATOR "5" IS ALSO AN IMPORTER STATEMENT, BUT ALLOWS THE SAME BASIC IMPORTER NUMBER TO BE GROUPED, REGARDLESS OF THE SUFFIX.

THIS DRAWBACK MODULE ERROR MESSAGE MEANS THAT THE AMOUNT OF DUTY CLAIMED AGAINST THE IMPORT FOR THIS DRAWBACK CLAIM EXCEEDS THE TOTAL DUTY ORIGINALLY AVAILABLE FOR THE ENTRY. THESE ERRORS WILL OCCUR IF THE IMPORT ENTRY IS BEING DESIGNATED FOR DRAWBACK FOR THE FIRST TIME AND THE CLAIMED DUTY AMOUNT EXCEEDS THE ORIGINAL AVAILABLE AMOUNT, OR IF THE CLAIM IS A TYPE '46' AND THE CLAIMED DRAWBACK EXCEEDS THE CURRENT AVAILABLE DUTY. NOTE: THERE ARE OTHER ODD CONDITIONS WHERE THE MESSAGE WILL OCCUR DUE TO NO FAULT OF THE FILER. IF THE FILER INDICATES THAT MORE MONIES WERE PAID THAN ARE REFLECTED IN ACS (E.G. SUPPLEMENTAL DUTIES ON A VOULUNTARY TENDER FOR ASSISTS WAS TENDERED, BUT THE COLLECTION WAS NOT POSTED TO THE ENTRY), THE FILER SHOULD BE INSTRUCTED TO DESIGNATE THE ADDITIONAL MONIES ON CM 999999/9900. THIS CM WAS CREATED JUST FOR THIS TYPE OF CONDITION.

VOQ:	DESIGNATED EXAM SITE UNKNOWN

THE DESIGNATED EXAM SITE, EI 30 RECORD, POSITIONS 40-43, SENT IN A REMOTE FILING TRANSACTION, IS NOT A DDPP ON THE DISTRICT/PORT FILE.

370:	ENTRY BELONGS TO ANOTHER DD/PP

THIS ERROR MESSAGE OCCURS WHEN A FILER SENDS AN ENTRY SUMMARY TRANSACTION FOR AN ENTRY THAT WAS RELEASED (OR AT LEAST ACCEPTED) AT ANOTHER PORT. THE SELECTIVITY RECORD WILL SHOW THE PORT CODE ESTABLISHED BY THE FILER'S FIRST SUCCESSFUL ABI TRANSMISSION. IF THE FILER'S SUMMARY INPUT PORT CODE (10 REC, POS 4-7) DOES NOT MATCH THE PORT CODE ON THE SELECTIVITY RECORD, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT. THIS ERROR WILL ALSO RESULT IF THE FILER TRANSMITS A CARGO RELEASE TRANSACTION THAT DOES NOT MATCH THE PORT CODE IN THE H1 REC, POS 4-7, TO THE PORT CODE SHOWN ON THE ENTRY MASTER FILE RECORD FROM THE FILER'S PRIOR TRANSMISSION. IF THE SELECTIVITY RECORD PORT CODE IS INCORRECT, THE FILER SHOULD FOLLOW LOCAL PROCEDURES IN ORDER TO BE ABLE TO RETRANSMIT THE SUMMARY WITH THE CORRECT PORT CODE ONCE THE SELECTIVITY RECORD HAS BEEN CHANGED. IF THERE IS AN ENTRY SUMMARY ON FILE, AND STILL IN ABI STATUS, THE FILER MAY DELETE THE SUMMARY AND RETRANSMIT IT WITH THE CORRECT PORT CODE.

361:	IT CHECK DIGIT ERROR

THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT IF AN AIR WAYBILL NUMBER OR A CONVENTIONAL INBOND NUMBER (9 NUMERIC) IS TRANSMITTED WITH AN INCORRECT CHECK DIGIT. IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE TRANSMITTING FILER TO CONFIRM WHETHER THE ERROR IS IN THE CHECK DIGIT ITSELF OR IN ONE OF THE PRECEDING DIGITS. NOTE: IF THE CHECK DIGIT ERROR OCCURS ON A PAPERLESS MASTER INBOND NUMBER (THOSE STARTING WITH "V"), ERROR MESSAGE 2CI WILL BE GENERATED. THE AMS SYSTEM WILL ACCEPT A TRANSMISSION WITH AN INCORRECT CHECK DIGIT. CHECK AMS FOR THE BILL OF LADING OR IN-BOND NUMBER. IF IT IS IN AMS, YOUR ABI CLIENT REPRESENTATIVE CAN RUN THE NUMBER THROUGH THE CHECK DIGIT CALCULATOR. IF AMS HAS THE INCORRECT CHECK DIGIT, ADVISE THE AMS CARRIER TO CORRECT AND RE-TRANSMIT WITH THE PROPER CHECK DIGIT.
