4D6:	CALL HQ QUOTA BR- CHAIN BROKEN

A PROBLEM EXISTS IN THE QUOTA MASTER FILE. HEADQUARTERS QUOTA NEEDS TO BE INFORMED OF THE DATA INPUT IN ORDER TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM.  CALL YOUR ABI CLIENT REPRESENTATIVE.

VOR:	REMOTE ENTRY/SUMM CERT MISSING

THIS MESSAGE RESULTS WHEN A FILER, WHO IS SET TO OPERATIONAL FOR REMOTE LOCATION FILING (AND THEREFORE BY DEFINITION FOR AII), SENDS AN 'E' IN POSITION 56 OF THE 10 RECORD BUT DOES NOT SEND A '1' IN POSITION 37 OF THE 30 RECORD WHICH IS A CERTIFICATION OF THE ENTRY SUMMARY, AN ELECTRONIC SIGNATURE.

DEP:	VALID INPUT = 'Y'

THE ONLY VALID INPUT FOR THIS FIELD IS 'Y'. OTHERWISE, THE FIELD SHOULD REMAIN BLANK.

48A:	CONSIGNEE IS FOREIGN BASED

THIS IS A WARNING MESSAGE THAT OCCURS WHEN A FILER SENDS A FOREIGN BASED CONSIGNEE IN A SELECTIVITY TRANSACTION. IT WARNS THE FILER THAT THE ADDRESS FOR THE CONSIGNEE NUMBER IS NOT A U.S. ADDRESS. IN THE FDA INTERFACE THE FDA'S SYSTEM WILL AUTOMATICALLY REJECT THIS TYPE OF CONSIGNEE AND SEND A 'DT' REJECT BACK TO THE FILER. THE FILER MUST THEN OBTAIN A FDA ESTABLISHMENT IDENTIFIER NUMBER (FEI) FROM FDA THROUGH ABI AND SEND THAT NUMBER IN AN OTHER GOVERNMENT AGENCY CORRECTION TRANSACTION (CP). THIS MESSAGE IS FOLLOWED BY THE INFORMATIONAL MESSAGE 42F "DATA ADDED WITH WARNINGS".

VKY:	HLT;POS REQUIRED W/ OPTIONAL LEN

A POSITION VALUE MUST BE SPECIFIED FOR THE OPTIONAL POSITION/LENGTH PARAMETER WHEN A LENGTH IS SPECIFIED.

2I5:	ADDR LINE 1 MISSING

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN AUTOMATED INVOICE TRANSACTION (APPLICATION CI). THE C09 AND C59 RECORDS PROVIDE SPACE FOR THE NAME AND FIRST LINE OF THE ADDRESS OF THE PARTY IDENTIFIED IN THE C08 OR C58 RECORDS. FOR ALL PARTIES OTHER THAN THE IMPORTER (CODE IM) OR ULTIMATE CONSIGNEE (CODE UC), A NAME AND ADDRESS ARE REQUIRED. IF THE FIELD FOR LINE ONE OF THE ADDRESS IS BLANK, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED. ERROR MESSAGE EIK, "NAME/ADDRESS REQUIRED" WILL FREQUENTLY ACCOMPANY ERROR MESSAGE 2I5, UNLESS THE PARTY TYPE IS "IM" OR "UC". THIS MESSAGE ALSO APPLIES TO THE 5106 INPUT TRANSACTION (CODE TI).

VQY:	TOTAL VALUE MUST = SUM OF LINES

THIS MESSAGE OCCURS IN THE NAFTA DUTY DEFERRAL MODULE. THE TOTAL VALUE IS SENT IN THE D30 RECORD, POSITIONS 4-14. IT IS THE TOTAL OF THE VALUES IN THE D12 RECORDS, POSITIONS 16-25. IF THEY DO NOT MATCH THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED.

2BU:	INVALID STATE CODE

ACS REQUIRES THE ABI FILER TO REPORT THE STATE OF ULTIMATE DESTINATION FOR THE IMPORTED CARGO. THIS CODE IS TRANSMITTED IN THE 10 REC, POS 78-79. ONLY THE TWO CHARACTER POSTAL ABBREVIATION FOR ONE OF THE 50 STATES WILL BE ACCEPTED IN THIS ELEMENT. IF ANY OTHER CODE IS TRANSMITTED, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED. IF THE ADD 5106 APPLICATION (CODE TI) IS USED, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED IF THE STATE CODE IS NOT ONE OF THOSE APPROVED BY THE UNITED STATES POSTAL SERVICE. NOTE THAT ERROR MESSAGE 2B8 IS IDENTICAL TO THIS ERROR MESSAGE AND MAY BE THE ONE BEING CALLED FOR 5106 INPUT ERRORS. THAT APPLICATIION IS NOT RETURNING ERROR CODES AS OF MAY 1998.

VNH:	FD 701: BASE UNIT MUST BE LAST

IN THE FDA INTERFACE, UP TO SIX QUANTITIES AND UNITS OF MEASURE (UOM) CAN BE TRANSMITTED. FIVE QUANTITIES/UOM CAN BE SENT IN REC FD02, POS 5-18, 19-32, 33-46, 47-60 AND 61-74 (CATAIR, PAGE OGA-30). THE SIXTH, IF APPLICABLE, IS SENT IN REC FD04, POS 5-18 (CATAIR, PAGE OGA-35). IF QUANTITIES/UOM'S ARE SENT THEN AT LEAST ONE OF THEM MUST BE A "BASE UNIT" AND IF MORE THAN ONE IS SENT THE BASE UNIT MUST BE IN THE LAST POSITION. IF, FOR EXAMPLE, THREE QUANTITIES/UOM'S ARE SENT THE BASE QUANTITY MUST BE IN THE "UNIT 3 QUANTITY AND MEASURE BLOCK (REC FD01, POS 33-46). IF ONLY ONE QUANTITY/UOM IS SENT IT MUST BE A BASE UNIT AND SENT IN THE UNIT 1 QUANTITY AND MEASURE BLOCK (REC FD01, POS 1-18). FDA BASE UNITS ARE SHOWN IN THE CATAIR, PAGES OGA-31.

52Y:	MAXIMUM I7 RECORDS EXCEEDED

REFER TO ADMINISTRATIVE MESSAGE 98-0236, DATED 032098. IN SOME CASES THE ULTIMATE CONSIGNEE NAME AND ADDRESS APPLICATION (IJ) WAS CAUSING DATA BASE ERRORS WHEN THE NUMBER OF I7 ENTRY NUMBER/LINE ITEM SEQUENCE RECORDS EXCEEDED THE LIMIT SET BY THE PROGRAM FOR A PARTICULAR NAME AND ADDRESS I3 AND I4 RECORD SET. ALSO, IN SOME REJECT SITUATIONS THE ERROR MESSAGE "524 TRANSACTION DATA REJECTED" WAS DISPLAYING ERRONEOUSLY IN THE IB OUTPUT MESSAGES WHEN THE ENTIRE IJ APPLICATION WAS NOT REJECTED. TO ELIMINATE THE ABOVE SITUATIONS AND TO PROVIDE MORE ACCURATE INFORMATION WHEN ERRORS ARE DETECTED IN THE ULTIMATE CONSIGNEE NAME AND ADDRESS APPLICATION (IJ) TRANSMISSIONS, THIS ERROR MESSAGE AND 52Z "ENTRY/LINE SEQUENCE REJECTED" ARE GENERATED. BOTH THE 52Y AND 52Z MESSAGES WILL APPEAR AS IB OUTPUT RECORDS WHEN CUSTOMS DETERMINES THAT THE INFORMATION TRANSMITTED CANNOT BE ADDED TO THE DATABASE AS REQUESTED BY AN ABI FILER.

DK8:	TOT SCHEDB TRAILER COUNT INVALID

THIS MESSAGE OCCURS IN THE AUTOMATED DRAWBACK MODULE. THE SUM OF THE ABI 'D12', 'D20', 'D25', 'D30', 'D40', OR 'D50' RECORDS DOES NOT ADD UP TO WHAT THE COUNT IS IN THE 'CT CLAIM TRAILER' RECORD, OR ABI 'D90' RECORD. BECAUSE IT DOES NOT ADD UP, WE CANNOT KNOW WHETHER THE TOTAL COUNT IS SIMPLY WRONG, OR THE TOTAL COUNT IS RIGHT AND WE ARE MISSING RECORDS.

EIL:	INVALID CURRENCY CODE

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN AUTOMATED INVOICE TRANSMISSION (APPLICATION CI). CURRENCY CODES ARE TRANSMITTED IN THE C01 REC, POS 45-4 VALID CURRENCY CODES ARE LISTED IN THE CATAIR IN APPENDIX B. THE USE OF ANY CURRENCY CODE NOT LISTED IN APPENDIX B, OR A BLANK FIELD, WILL GENERATE THIS ERROR MESSAGE.

4D8:	BANNED IMPORT FROM COUNTRY

THIS MERCHANDISE FROM THE COUNTRY IN QUESTION MAY NOT BE ENTERED. THIS MESSAGE ALSO APPEARS WHEN THERE IS A "BANNED" STATUS IN THE QUOTA FILE. THE TARIFF NUMBER FROM THE COUNTRY IN QUESTION MAY POSSIBLY BE ENTERED UNDER A CHAPTER 99 PROVISION. CHECK THE ADMINISTRATIVE MESSAGES FOR THE PRODUCT IN QUESTION. CHECK THE QUOTA QUERY FOR "BANNED" IN STATUS COLUMN.

VGQ:	FD 701: ESTBLSMNT ID NOT ON FILE

AN FDA ESTABLISHMENT IDENTIFIER (FEI) NUMBER IS A TWELVE-DIGIT NUMBER THAT IDENTIFIES A DOMESTIC LOCATION (ADDRESS) OF AN FDA IMPORTER OR DOMESTIC CLIENT. THESE NUMBERS ARE CREATED IN THE FDA INTERFACE BY FILERS REQUESTING, THROUGH ABI TO FDA, A NUMBER FOR A DOMESTIC LOCATION. THE REQUEST IS MOST OFTEN MADE WHEN THE FILER HAS SENT A FOREIGN-BASED CONSIGNEE AND HAS RECEIVED AN FDA REJECT. THE FEI NUMBER, IF USED, IS SENT IN REC FD03, POS 15-26 AND MUST CONTAIN 12 NUMERIC CHARACTERS. THE MOST COMMON MISTAKE IS TO OMIT THE FIRST TWO ZEROS AND TRANSMIT ONLY TEN NUMBERS.

VHQ:	DT HS7: MAKE REQUIRED

THIS ERROR MESSAGE OCCURS IN THE DOT INTERFACE. THE MAKE (NAME OF COMPANY THAT MANUFACTURED VEHICLE) SENT IN POSITIONS 5-19 OF THE DT02 RECORD IS MANDATORY IF BOXES 03, 05 OR

VAO:	ADDITIONAL PENDING MIDS FOUND

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN ENTRY SUMMARY INPUT (APPLICATION EI). IF MORE THAN 10 LINES EXIST ON THE ENTRY AND THE MID(S) IDENTIFIED FOR LINES 11 OR HIGHER ARE NOT ON THE MID FILE, THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED.

VHV:	DT HS7: VIN REQUIRED

IF THE FILER REPORTS DOT INFORMATION TO ABI AND THE DT01 RECORD SHOWS A CLARIFICATION CODE OF "V" IN POSITION 37, A SECOND RECORD (DT02 USUALLY, BUT THE DT03 IS ALLOWED, AS WELL) IS REQUIRED TO REPORT THE VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER. IF THAT RECORD OMITS THE VIN, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED.

AFW:	ENT REQ 1 VALID ADD/CVD LINE ITEM

IF ENTRY TYPE 03 OR 07 IS TRANSMITTED BY A FILER ON A SUMMARY INPUT, THERE MUST BE AT LEAST ONE LINE WITH ADA OR CVD DATA IN THE 60 RECORD.

1L5:	WARNING-NO BOND FOR IMPORTER

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO LINE RELEASE OUTPUT RECORD CREATION. IT IS USUALLY ACCOMPANIED BY ERROR 628 (MISSING/INVALID IMPORTER NUMBER). 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.

51D:	INFORMAL ENTRY IS NOT PERMITTED

SINCE MARCH OF 1994 THE REQUIREMENT FOR MAKING FORMAL ENTRY ON A GIVEN TARIFF NUMBER HAS BEEN INDICATED IN THE ON-LINE HARMONIZED TARIFF RECORD. THE FIELD CONTAINING THIS INFORMATION IS CALLED "MIS-REQ". THERE ARE (3) VALID VALUES FOR THIS FIELD: "0" = FORMAL ENTRY REQUIRED, REGARDLESS OF VALUE "2" = FORMAL ENTRY REQUIRED FOR VALUE GREATER THAN $250 "Z" = TARIFF NOT ELIGIBLE FOR DUTY-FREE TREATMENT UNDER 'FREELY ASSOCIATED STATES' (FAS) PROGRAM. IF A RECORD CONTAINS A "0" AND "2" THE "0" CONDITION APPLIES. THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED IF A TARIFF NUMBER ON THE ENTRY IS CODED "0" AND THE ENTRY TYPE IS INFORMAL. IF THE TARIFF NUMBER IS CODED "2", ERROR MESSAGE Z29 WILL APPLY.

RBR:	RECON FLR/LOCATION NOT PERMITTED

IF POSITIONS 47-53 OF THE 'B' RECORD FOR THE 'RA' RECONCILIATION SUMMARY TRANSACTION ARE FILLED-IN, AN ACS RECORD MUST EXIST FOR THAT PREPARER FILER CODE AND PREPARER DDPP TO RELATE THEM TO THE 'B' RECORD PROCESSING DDPP. THIS MESSAGE WILL OCCUR IF NO DATA PRESENT IN POSITIONS 47-53 AND THE PROCESSING DDPP AND FILER CODE IN THE 'B' RECORD ARE VALID ON THE FILER PROFILE, BUT DO NOT AGREE WITH THE FILER AND DDPP OF THE SUMMARY IN THE 'R10' RECORD. IF POSITIONS 47-53 ARE FILLED, THERE IS A RECORD TO RELATE THE PREPARER DDPP AND FILER TO THE PROCESSING DDPP AND FILER, BUT THE PROCESSING DDPP AND FILER DO NOT AGREE WITH THE 'R10' DDPP AND FILER, THIS MESSAGE WILL OCCUR. THIS MESSAGE WILL USUALLY OCCUR IN COMBINATION WITH ERROR MESSAGE 'RBP'.

0JN:	FIRMS CODE REQUIRED

ENTRIES WHICH REQUEST CARGO SELECTIVITY PROVISIONAL RESULTS MUST CONTAIN A FIRMS CODE WHICH IS "ACTIVE" AND WHICH REPRESENTS A VALID CARGO EXAMINATION SITE. (NOT A CUSTOMS ADMINISTRATIVE SITE). IF THE FIRMS CODE, FROM THE FIRMS FILE DATABASE, IS NOT ACTIVE, THE INPUT TRANSACTION WILL BE REJECTED WITH THIS ERROR MESSAGE.

VGN:	FD 701: UOM REQ IF QTY USED

IF A QUANTITY IS SENT IN THE FDA INTERFACE, REC FD02, POS 5-14, 19-28, 33-42, 47-56, 61-70 AND REC FD04, POS 5-14, A UNIT OF MEASURE (UOM) MUST BE TRANSMITTED. VALID FDA UNITS OF MEASURE ARE SHOWN ON PAGE OGA-31 OF THE CATAIR DOCUMENT. THESE UNITS ARE CONSIDERED TO BE "BASE UNITS" AND MUST BE EITHER THE LAST UNIT SENT (WHEN MORE THAN ONE QUANTITY/UOM PAIR IS ALSO TRANSMITTED) OR MUST BE THE UOM WHEN ONLY ONE QUANTITY IS SENT.

ARW:	REFUND PARTY NBR NOT ON FILE

THE NUMBER LISTED DOES NOT EXIST ON THE USCS IMPORTER FILE. THE MOST COMMON REASON FOR THIS ERROR IS THAT THE IRS, SSN OR USCS NUMBER HAS BEEN TRANSMITTED IN AN IMPROPER FORMAT. DASHES MUST BE INCLUDED IN THE FORMAT. FOR IRS NUMBERS, NN-NNNNNNNNN IS THE REQUIRED FORMAT. FOR SSN'S, NNN-NN-NNNN IS THE REQUIRED FORMAT. FOR USCS NUMBERS, YYDDPP-NNNN IS THE REQUIRED FORMAT. IRS NUMBERS MUST BE 12 CHARACTERS LONG; NUMBERS LISTED AT THE 10 CHARACTER LEVEL WILL BE REJECTED BECAUSE ALL IRS NUMBERS ARE LISTED AT THE 12 CHARACTER LEVEL IN THE USCS IMPORTER FILE. WHEN A 2 CHARACTER SUFFIX IS NOT USED AT THE END OF THE IRS NUMBER, 2 ZEROS SHOULD BE USED (NN-NNNNNNN00).
