ABI Error Message

2CI:	INBOND - INVALID CHECK DIGIT

ENTRY SUMMARY OR CARGO RELEASE INPUT TRANSACTIONS THAT REPORT PAPERLESS MASTER INBOND NUMBERS (THOSE STARTING WITH "V") MUST TRANSMIT A VALID MIB NUMBER, INCLUDING THE LAST DIGIT (CHECK DIGIT). IF THE LAST DIGIT IS NOT CORRECT, PRESUMING THAT THE FIRST 10 DIGITS ARE CORRECT, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT. THE FILER SHOULD RECONFIRM THE ENTIRE PAPERLESS MIB NUMBER WITH THE ISSUING CARRIER. NOTE: ERRORS IN THE CHECK DIGIT FOR AIR WAYBILLS USED AS INBOND NUMBERS OR FOR CONVENTIONAL (9 DIGIT ALL NUMERIC) INBOND NUMBERS WILL GENERATE ERROR MESSAGE 361.

EJC:	INVALID DIFFERENCE REASON CODE

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN AUTOMATED INVOICE TRANSMISSION (APPLICATION CI). THE C39 RECORD, POS 22-23, PROVIDES FOR THE INSERTION OF ONE OF 24 VALID TWO-CHARACTER "REASON FOR DIFFERENCE CODES". THE USE OF ANY OTHER CODE, OR A BLANK FIELD, WILL GENERATE THIS ERROR MESSAGE.

383:	COUNTRY OF EXPORT INVALID

THIS MESSAGE WILL RESULT IF THE ABI FILER TRANSMITS AN ENTRY SUMMARY OR CARGO RELEASE TRANSACTION WITH A TWO-CHARACTER COUNTRY CODE (ISO CODE) THAT DOES NOT APPEAR ON THE COUNTRY CODE DATABASE. FOR SHIPMENTS FROM CANADA, THE TWO-CHARACTER CODE IS CA, NOT THE PROVINCE-OF-ORIGIN CODE (X-) THAT MUST BE USED FOR COUNTRY OF ORIGIN REPORTING. ALSO, IF "US" IS TRANSMITTED AS THE COUNTRY OF EXPORT, THAT WILL GENERATE THIS ERROR MESSAGE.

RB5:	R89, R21 FEE CLASSES INCONSISTENT

THIS MESSAGE MEANS THAT AT LEAST ONE OF THE FEE CLASS CODES GIVEN IN THE 'R89' RECORD(S) OF THE 'RA' RECON TRANSACTION DOES NOT EXIST ON ANY OF THE GIVEN 'R21' RECORDS VIA ABI.

Q41:	STMT PAID, TO DELETE, NEGATE COLL

THIS MESSAGE OCCURS WHEN AN ABI FILER ATTEMPTS TO REMOVE AN ENTRY FROM STATEMENT (APPLICATION HP) AND THE STATEMENT HAS ALREADY HAD AN ACH AUTHORIZATION TRANSMITTED TO ABI (APPLICATION QN). THE SOLUTION IS FOR THE FILER TO CONTACT A CLIENT  REP WHO CAN PERFORM THE PAYMENT AUTHORIZATION DELETE FUNCTION, IF THE PAYMENT AUTHORIZATION WAS TRANSMITTED ON THE SAME DAY AS THE REQUEST IS MADE.

EJ1:	TOTAL AMT OF INVOICE LINES WRONG

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN AUTOMATED INVOICE TRANSMISSION (APPLICATION CI). THE C84 REC, POS 4-18, IS WHERE THE TOTAL DOLLAR AMOUNT OF ALL THE INVOICE LINES ON THE INSTANT INVOICE IS REPORTED. THIS AMOUNT WILL INCLUDE THE ITEM AMOUNT TOTAL FROM EACH C33 REC, POS 37-51, PLUS OR MINUS THE APPROPRIATE ALLOWANCES OR CHARGES REPORTED IN ANY C17 OR C53 RECORD. THESE AMOUNTS ARE TOTALED AT THE FOUR-DECIMAL LEVEL AND THEN SHOULD BE ROUNDED TO TWO DECIMALS FOR INCLUSION IN THE C84 RECORD. IF THE FIGURE REPORTED IN THE C84 RECORD DOES NOT AGREE WITH THE OTHER TOTALS, THIS ERROR WILL BE GENERATED. THERE IS A $3.00 (PLUS OR MINUS) VARIATION ALLOWED BETWEEN THE C84 TOTAL AND THE TOTAL OF THE OTHER RECORDS.

IF THE BOND IS ASSOCIATED WITH A PROPERLY FORMATTED IMPORTER NUMBER (IN EIN, SSN, OR USCS ASSIGNED NUMBER FORMAT), AND THE IMPORTER NUMBER FORMAT IS NOT IN THE CORRECT FORMAT, THE BOND WILL CONSEQUENTLY BE NOT ON FILE. CORRECTION OF THE IMPORTER NUMBER ERROR WILL USUALLY RESOLVE THE NO BOND ERROR, PROVIDED AN ACTUAL CONTINUOUS BOND EXISTS.

VGX:	INVALID FORMAT

THIS ERROR MESSAGE OCCURS IN THE FDA INTERFACE WHEN A FILER ATTEMPTS TO SEND A QUERY OR AN ADD REQUEST FOR AN FDA ESTABLISHMENT NUMBER (FEI) IN THE PP TRANSACTION AND THE FORMAT OF THEIR QUERY IS INCORRECT. THIS CAN TAKE MANY FORMS BUT USUALLY INVOLVES TRYING TO FIT A FOREIGN ADDRESS INTO FIELDS THAT ONLY ACCEPT A US ADDRESS. IN MOST CASES, IT INVOLVES A PROGRAMMING PROBLEM IN THE FILERS SOFTWARE.

IF THE ABI FILER REQUESTS A CUSTOMS-ASSIGNED NUMBER FOR A FOREIGN-BASED COMPANY, AND THE COMPANY IS LOCATED IN A COUNTRY OTHER THAN CANADA, THE INPUT RECORDS MUST SHOW "FN" AS THE STATE CODE. IF THE T2 RECORD, POS 68-69 DOES NOT REFLECT "FN" OR IS LEFT BLANK, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED.

VAB:	FC 740:INV 03 APPROVAL IND

39B:	INVALID DUTY FREE CLAIM

THIS MESSAGE WILL OCCUR IF THE FILER ATTEMPTS TO MAKE A DUTY-FREE CLAIM THAT IS NOT APPROPRIATE TO THE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN/COUNTRY OF EXPORT COMBINATION. FOR EXAMPLE, INSULAR POSSESSIONS (SPI "Y") ARE ENTITLED TO SHIP CARGO DUTY FREE TO THE UNITED STATES, BUT ONLY IF THE SHIPMENT COMES DIRECTLY FROM THE POSSESSION. THEREFORE, IF THE COUNTRY OF EXPORT (50 REC, POS 69-70) IS NOT IDENTICAL TO THE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN (40 REC, POS 6-7), AND THE FILER TRANSMITS "Y" IN POS 3 OF THE 50 RECORD, THIS ERROR WILL RESULT. THIS MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED IF SPI "Y" IS USED FOR AMERICAN GOODS RETURNED PRODUCTS (CHAPT 98010010NN), AS THESE ARTICLES ARE UNCONDITIONALLY FREE OF DUTY AND THEREFORE DO NOT REQUIRE A SPECIAL PROGRAM IN ORDER TO CLAIM DUTY-FREE STATUS.

VBA:	BRANCH CODE INVALID W/O STMT IND

ARA:	PROTESTANT DATA REQUIRED

PROTESTANT IDENTIFICATION DATA IS REQUIRED FOR INITIAL PROTEST, CLAIM OR INTERVENTION FILING. WHEN PROTESTANT TYPE IS 'F' (FOREIGN EXPORTER/PRODUCER) OR 'O' (OTHER), PROTESTANT NAME AND ADDRESS DATA MAY BE CORRECTED BY FILING AN AMEND- MENT DURING ANY REMAINING PORTION OF THE FILING/AMENDMENT PERIOD OR BY FILING AN ADDENDA AFTER THE FILING/AMENDMENT PERIOD HAS CLOSED.

27J:	*CENSUS* OR-AGR CHARGES/VALUE

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED ON ENTRY SUMMARY INPUT TRANSACATIONS WHEN THE LINE ITEM CHARGES (40 REC, POS 48-57) DIVIDED BY THE LINE ITEM VALUE (40 REC, POS 8-17) EXCEED A STATED PERCENTAGE. IF THE RATIO BETWEEN THE CHARGES AND VALUE EXCEEDS THE PERCENTAGE SHOWN ON TARIFF/CENSUS DATABASE BY MORE THAN 300 PERCENT, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED. (EXAMPLE: VALUE IS $400 FOR TARIFF 8541402000 AND THE CHARGES ARE $100. THIS IS A 25% RATIO. THE RECORD FOR THE TARIFF NUMBER SHOWS 7% AS THE UPPER LIMIT. 7% OF $400 IS $28. 300% OF THIS FIGURE WOULD BE $84. THEREFORE, CHARGES FROM $1 TO $84 WOULD NOT GENERATE THIS WARNING MESSAGE, BUT CHARGES OF $85 OR HIGHER WOULD.) FOR SHIPMENTS BY AIR, THE CHARGES IS SOMETIMES COMPARED TO THE GROSS WEIGHT (40 REC, POS18-27) AND THIS MESSAGE COULD BE GENERATED EVEN IN A CASE WHERE THE CHARGES/VALUE RATIO WAS BELOW 300% OF THE VALUE.
