ABI Error Message

BRE:	INVALID NAFTA ISSUE

FILER HAS ATTEMPTED TO FILE A RECON FOR A NAFTA ISSUE AGAINST AN IMPORT ENTRY THAT IS NOT FLAGGED FOR NAFTA RECONCILIATION.

VNP:	D11 RECORD MUST CONTAIN DATA

THIS ERROR MESSAGE COULD BE THE RESULT OF A DRAWBACK DISKETTE OR ABI PROBLEM. WHEN CUSTOMS FORMATTED THE RECORDS FROM THE DISKETTE OR WHEN THE DATA WAS SENT VIA ABI, NO DATA WAS PRESENT IN THE GIVEN RECORD. IF THE DISKETTE HAS NO DATA, THE PC PROGRAM SHOULD STOP IT BEFORE TRANSMISSION; HOWEVER, THERE MAY HAVE BEEN DATA THERE, BUT IT WAS BAD DATA.

02J:	PC: NONNUMERIC EST ARRIVAL DATE

ESTIMATED ARRIVAL DATE ENTERED IS NON-NUMERIC. THIS ENTRY HAS BEEN FLAGGED AS A PAIRED CITIES ENTRY. A VALID ESTIMATED ARRIVAL DATE IS REQUIRED.

546:	EXISTING ENTRY IN CUSTOMS STATUS

THIS MESSAGE OCCURS WHEN A FILER ATTEMPTS TO TRANSMIT AN ENTRY SUMMARY TRANSACTION FOR AN ENTRY NUMBER THAT IS IN CUSTOMS STATUS. CUSTOMS STATUS MEANS THAT CUSTOMS HAS "PROCESSED" THE ENTRY. THE MOST COMMON SITUATION FOR THIS ERROR IS WHEN A PAYMENT HAS BEEN COLLECTED (BY CHECK, STATEMENT PROCESSING OR ACH) AND THE FILER ATTEMPTS TO RETRANSMIT THE SUMMARY DATA. ANOTHER COMMON CAUSE FOR THIS ERROR IS WHEN THE ENTRY NUMBER APPEARS ON A PRELIMINARY STATEMENT AND THE FILER ATTEMPTS TO CORRECT THE SUMMARY DATA WITHOUT FIRST REMOVING THE ENTRY FROM STATEMENT STATUS. IF THE ENAI SCREEN SHOWS "ENT ACP NOT LIQ", THE FILER MAY NOT RETRANSMIT THE SUMMARY UNTIL THE SUMMARY IS PUT INTO A REJECTED STATUS. IF THE ENTRY NUMBER IS A DRAWBACK CLAIM THAT IS IN CUSTOMS STATUS AND THE FILER IS ATTEMPTING TO CHANGE THE DATA, THE DISKETTE WILL BE REJECTED AND CUSTOMS WILL MANUALLY PROCESS ANY CHANGES AS INDICATED ON THE PAPER CLAIM. IF THE ENTRY NUMBER IS NOT A DRAWBACK CLAIM, BOTH THE CLAIM AND DISKETTE WILL BE RETURNED. ACCELERATED DRAWBACK WILL BE PAID UPON CORRECTION (IF NOT PREVIOUSLY PAID). ABI WILL REJECT THE TRANSMISSION.

054:	ENTRY NBR NOT ASSIGNED TO BROKER

ENTRIES FILED THROUGH SEPTEMBER 30, 1986 HAVE THE FOLLOWING NUMBER FORMAT: FISCAL YEAR (2 DIGITS); SEQUENCE NUMBER (6 DIGITS); CHECK DIGIT (1 DIGIT) ENTRIES FILED AFTER SEPTEMBER 30, 1986 HAVE THE FOLLOWING NUMBER FORMATS: FILER CODE (3 CHARACTERS, ALPHA NUMERIC); SEQUENCE NUMBER (7 DIGITS); CHECK DIGIT (1 DIGIT) USUALLY THIS ERROR IS INVOKED WHEN THERE IS NO MATCH FOR THE ENTRY NUMBER FOUND IN THE ACS ENTRY SUMMARY FILES- USER COULD HAVE MADE A TYPOGRAPHICAL ERROR IN THE ENTRY NUMBER.

VG1:	REQUEST SENT TO FDA, PROC PENDING

THIS IS NOT AN ERROR MESSAGE BUT AN INFORMATIONAL MESSAGE. IT OCCURS WHEN A FILER HAS SENT A REQUEST FOR AN FDA ESTABLISHMENT IDENTIFIED (FEI) NUMBER THROUGH ACS TO FDA. THIS INTERIM MESSAGE IS TELLING THE FILER THAT THEIR REQUEST PASSED ABI EDITS AND HAS BEEN SENT TO THE FDA SYSTEM. FDA WILL PROCESS THE REQUEST AND SEND BACK THE FEI NUMBER IN A SEPARATE ABI TRANSACTION.

Q08:	'QT' AMT PAID NOT = STATEMENT AMT

THE "PAYMENT AMOUNT" SUBMITTED ON THE QT RECORD (POS 25-34) DOES NOT EQUAL "AMT DUE" COLUMN ON THE DATA FILE FOR THE STATEMENT NUMBER TRANSMITTED. IN MOST CASES, THIS RESULTS WHEN THE FILER ATTEMPTS TO PAY A STATEMENT WITH AN AMOUNT THAT IS LOWER THAN THE ACTUAL AMOUNT BECAUSE THE FILER ASSUMED THAT HIS REMOVAL OF ONE OR MORE ENTRIES FROM THE STATEMENT WAS SUCCESSFULLY TRANSMITTED TO ABI VIA APPLICATION HP (STATEMENT ADD/DELETE). IF THE ACH PAYMENT REJECTS, THE FILER SHOULD RETRANSMIT THE HP FOR THE ENTRY(S) TO BE REMOVED AND ONLY WHEN A SUCCESSFUL ACKNOWLEDGEMENT IS RECEIVED FROM ABI SHOULD THE ACH PAYMENT BE TRANSMITTED.

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.

371:	IR TAX REQUIRED

IF TARIFF FLAG = '1', AN INTERNAL REVENUE TAX APPLIES AND MUST BE INPUT ON THE LINE ITEM ENTRY . IF THE TARIFF FILE INDICATES THAT THE TARIFF NUMBER IS SUBJECT TO IRS EXCISE TAXES, THIS MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED IF NO TAX AMOUNT IS TRANSMITTED IN THE 60 RECORD, POS 59-68. NOTE THAT IN THOSE INSTANCES WHERE THE FILER IS AUTHORIZED TO PAY LESS TAX (OR INADVERTENTLY TRANSMITS INCORRECT TAX), THAN THE STATUTORY TAX RATE WOULD INDICATE, ERROR MESSAGE 42N - "WARNING - EST TAX < COMPUTED TAX" WILL RESULT.

DLD:	WARNING-NO ACCEL APPV'D-CHK PRIVS

THIS MESSAGE OCCURS IN THE AUTOMATED DRAWBACK MODULE. IT IS A 'WARNING', NOT A FATAL ERROR, THAT APPEARS IF THE CLAIMANT HAS APPLIED FOR THE ACCELERATED PRIVILEGE, BUT HAS NOT YET BEEN APPROVED. MESSAGE DLD WILL CONTINUE TO BE A WARNING ONLY AFTER 4/6/1999.

14M:	QTY/RANGE ERROR FOR TARIFF NBR

ENTERED QUANTITY IS NOT IN RANGE FOR THE TARIFF NBR IN THE TARIFF DATABASE. THIS ERROR MESSAGE GENERATES IN RESPONSE TO SPECIFIC QUANTITY EDITS EXISTING ON THE TARIFF FILE. THE TARIFF NUMBERS QTY1/QTY2 VALUES REPORTED VIA ABI FALL OUT OF RANGE FOR THE EXISTING TARIFF QTY LO/HI BOUNDS. TO CALCULATE THE QUANTITY RATIO, USE THE QTY EDIT CODES LOCATED ON THE TARIFF DATABASE. FOR EXAMPLE, SEE HTS 5208521000. THE QTY EDIT CODES ARE 211. USE THE SECOND REPORTED QUANTITY (KG) AS THE NUMERATOR AND THE FIRST REPORTED QUANTITY (M2) AS THE DENOMINATOR TO DERIVE THE QUANTITY RATIO (SEE HTS USER'S GUIDE APPENDIX D, PAGES D-3 & D-4). FOR THIS HTS, THE QTY RATIO MUST FALL BETWEEN THE LO/HI/ QTY VALUES OR THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT. TO CORRECT THE ERROR, THE FILER CAN 1) VERIFY THE QUANTITIES, 2) CONSULT THE HARMONIZED TARIFF FOR A BETTER CLASSIFICATION OR 3) CONTACT AN IMPORT SPECIALIST. ERROR MSG 15K, "DUTY COMPUTATION NOT PERFORMED" WILL ALSO BE GENERATED WITH MSG 14M.

EID:	PAYMENT TERMS REQUIRED

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN AUTOMATED INVOICE TRANSMISSION (APPLICATION CI). PAYMENT TERMS ARE TRANSMITTED IN THE C02 REC, POS 6-75. THIS FIELD MAY NOT BE BLANK OR THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED.

VD1:	INVALID SUMMRY CERTIFICATION CODE

THIS MESSAGE WILL OCCUR IF ANYTHING OTHER THAN A '1', '0' OR A BLANK IS SENT IN THE EI 30 RECORD, POSITION 37 (SUMMARY CERTIFICATION CODE).

109:	INVALID SPECIAL PROGRAMS INDICATOR

ABI ENTRY SUMMARY TRANSMISSIONS MAY INCLUDE A SPECIAL PROGRAM INDICATOR CODE ("SPI"). THE VALID CODES ARE LISTED ON PAGES ENS-48 THROUGH ENS-50 OF THE CATAIR (CUSTOMS AND TRADE AUTOMATED INTERFACE REQUIREMENTS DOCUMENT). IF A FILER'S TRANSMISSION CONTAINS A CODE NOT CURRENTLY AUTHORIZED AS A SPECIAL PROGRAM INDICATOR, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT.

VP4:	DEFER. DUTY CLAIM ALREADY ON FILE

THIS MESSAGE OCCURS IN THE NAFTA DUTY DEFERRAL MODULE. IF AN AUTOMATED CLAIM IS ALREADY ON FILE THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL OCCUR.

552:	ENTRY DELETE NOT ALLOWED

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN ENTRY SUMMARY DELETE INPUT TRANSACTION (APPLICATION EI). IF THE FILER HAS PREVIOUSLY TRANSMITTED AN ENTRY SUMMARY THAT WAS REJECTED, AND THE SUMMARY IN QUESTION HAS NOT BEEN PAID IN OR OTHERWISE FILED WITH A LOCAL CUSTOMS OFFICE, THE ABI REJECT WILL ERASE PREVIOUSLY TRANSMITTED ABI ENTRY SUMMARY DATA. IN SUCH A CASE, THE TRANSMISSION OF AN ENTRY SUMMARY DELETE TRANSACTION (ACTION CODE "D" IN POS 3 OF THE 10 REC) WILL GENERATE THIS ERROR MESSAGE.

VA9:	FW 3-177: FWS VALUE EXCEEDS USCS

HI APPLICATION: THE FWS LINE ITEM VALUES EXPRESSED IN THE FW01 RECORD(S) POS 63-72 CANNOT EXCEED THE LINE ITEM VALUE IN THE H5 RECORD POS 45-54. ADDITIONALLY, THE TOTAL FWS LINE ITEM VALUES FOR ALL LINES CANNOT EXCEED THE TOTAL VALUE IN THE H2 RECORD, POS 29-38. EI APPLICATION: THE FWS LINE ITEM VALUES EXPRESSED IN THE FW01 RECORD(S) CANNOT EXCEED THE LINE ITEM VALUE EXPRESSED IN THE 40 RECORD POS 8-17, OR IN THE 70, 80, OR 81 REC, POS 69-78.

ACU:	LOWER CASE ALPHABETIC INVALID

THIS MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN IMPORTER ADD TRANSACTION, APPLICATION IDENTIFIER TI. IF THE FILER TRANSMITS LOWER CASE ALPHA CHARACTER IN HIS INPUT, THIS MESSAGE WILL RESULT.

VG7:	FEI NUMBER INVALID - NUMERICS REQ

THIS ERROR MESSAGE OCCURS WHEN A FILER ATTEMPTS TO QUERY AN FDA ESTABLISHMENT IDENTIFIER NUMBER (FEI) USING THE PP TRANSACTION AND HAS SENT CHARACTERS OTHER THAN NUMERICS IN REC FD10, POS 6-17. THE DATA ELEMENT IS DEFINED AS 12 AN (OR 12 NUMERICS.) ALL 12 POSITIONS MUST BE FILLED, INCLUDING ANY LEADING ZEROS.

7BB:	DUPLICATE ENTRY & LINE-ITEM SEQ

THIS MESSAGE OCCURS IN THE ULTIMATE CONSIGNEE NAME AND ADDRESS (IJ) TRANSACTION WHEN THE FILER SENDS MULTIPLE I7 RECORDS WITH DIFFERENT LINE NUMBERS AND THE SAME ULTIMATE CONSIGNEE INFORMATION APPLIES TO ALL LINES. IF THE NAME AND ADDRESS INFORMATION APPLIES TO ALL LINES THE FILER SHOULD SEND JUST ONE I7 RECORD. IN 0400 AN ENTRY WAS FOUND WITH THIS ERROR WHERE AN IJ WAS ATTEMPTED SIX WEEKS AFTER THE SELECTIVITY ENTRY WAS CLOSED.

8P1:	INELIGIBLE - CONSOLIDATED RLSE

THIS DRAWBACK MODULE ERROR MESSAGE WILL OCCUR IF AN IMPORT ENTRY IS DESIGNATED THAT WAS NOT AN ENTRY SUMMARY, BUT A CONSOLIDATED RELEASE. IN THESE CASES, THE ENTRY THAT SHOULD BE CITED, IF ANY, WOULD BE THE CONSOLIDATED SUMMARY AGAINST WHICH DUTIES/TAXES WERE PAID.

628:	MISSING/INVALID IMPORTER NUMBER

THIS MESSAGE OCCURS DURING THE CREATION OF LINE RELEASE OUTPUT RECORDS. THE IMPORTER OF RECORD MUST BE IN ONE OF THREE VALID FORMATS, WHICH ARE OUTLINED ON PAGE LRL-5 OF THE CATAIR. IF ONE OF THE VALID FORMATS IS NOT USED, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT.

VM4:	HLN: FIELD OR STRING MUST BE Y

EITHER THE FIELD SELECT OR STRING SELECT MUST BE Y=YES. AT LEAST ONE IS REQUIRED. BOTH CAN BE Y=YES, BUT BOTH CAN NOT BE N=NO.

89E:	FEE CODE ENTERED/NOT REQUIRED

THIS MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED IF A FEE IS TRANSMITTED IN THE 62 RECORD FOR A TARIFF NUMBER THAT DOES NOT CONTAIN A FLAG FOR THAT FEE ON THE TARIFF FILE. THE MOST COMMON EXAMPLE IS THE TRANSMISSION OF A COTTON FEE, CLASS CODE 056, FOR A TARIFF NUMBER THAT DOES NOT HAVE A COTTON FEE ON ITS CURRENT RECORD. FILERS SHOULD VERIFY THE APPLICABILITY OF THE FEE FROM THE TARIFF FILES. THIS MESSAGE WILL ALSO RESULT IF CERTAIN FEES ARE TRANSMITTED INCORRECTLY ON A SET ENTRY. IN THIS CASE, THE MPF FEE (499) AND THE HMF (501) FEES MUST ONLY BE TRANSMITTED WITH THE "X" LINES. OTHER TARIFF SPECIFIC FEES CAN ONLY BE TRANSMITTED WITH THE APPROPRIATE "V" LINES. THIS MESSAGE IS ALSO GENERATED IF THE AMOUNT OF THE COTTON FEE, CALCULATED BY ACS, IS LESS THAN $2.01, USING THE CORRECT RATE. ACS WILL NOT DISPUTE THE FILER'S AMOUNT OF COTTON FEE IN SUCH A SITUATION. IT WILL MERELY ADVISE THE FILER THAT NO FEE IS REQUIRED.

79M:	TARIFF NBR NOT ON DATABASE

TARIFF NBR IS NOT FOUND ON EITHER THE HARMONIZED DATABASE. THE MOST COMMON CAUSE FOR THIS ERROR MESSAGE IS THAT A RECENT CHANGE TO THE TARIFF NUMBER HAS OCCURRED AND THE FILER HAS NOT RETRIEVED THE CHANGE. FILERS MUST KEEP UP WITH ALL HARMONIZED UPDATES IN ORDER TO KNOW WHICH TARIFF NUMBERS ARE VALID. IF THE TARIFF NUMBER RECEIVING THIS MESSAGE IS NO LONGER VALID, THE FILER SHOULD DO A HARMONIZED RANGE QUERY THROUGH ABI AND SHOULD EXAMINE THE DESCRIPTION RECORDS OF THE TARIFF NUMBERS RETURNED IN THE QUERY RESULTS TO DETERMINE WHICH TARIFF NUMBER IS THE REPLACEMENT FOR THE REJECTED TARIFF NUMBER.
