THIS DRAWBACK MODULE ERROR MESSAGE WILL APPEAR FOR CLAIM TYPES '41' THRU '45' IF THE CLAIMED AMOUNT FOR AN IMPORT ENTRY OR CM EQUALS THE FULL AVAILABLE DUTY/TAX AMOUNT, SINCE THE MAXIMUM CLAIMED AMOUNT CANNOT EXCEED 99 PERCENT THEREOF. BECAUSE THERE ARE CERTAIN CONDITIONS WHERE THE CLAIMED DRAWBACK MAY BE EQUAL TO THE FULL DUTY/TAX PAID (E.G.

"DOZ" OR "DZ" FOR DOZEN, ETC.) IF POS 19-21 OR 61-63 ARE BLANK, AND A QUANTITY IS TRANSMITTED IN POS 4-18, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED.
