ABI Error Message

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.

THIS $2.99 DIFFERENCE ALSO APPLIES TO THE ENTRY, AS A WHOLE.
