ABI Error Message

EJM:	INVOICE ADDITIONAL AMOUNT WRONG

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONE TO AN AUTOMATED INVOICE TRANSMISSION (APPLICATION CI). THE C84 REC, POS 19-33, IS USED TO REPORT ANY ALLOWANCE OR CHARGES THAT SHOULD BE ADDED TO THE INVOICE AMOUNT TO REFLECT THE PROPER INVOICE TOTALS. THE C17 REC PROVIDES SIX TYPES OF ADJUSTMENTS (SEE PAGE AII-23 FOR THE VALID ALLOWANCE/CHARGE INDICATORS). IF ANY OF THESE TYPES EXCEPT "N" OR "D" ARE USED, THE AMOUNTS OF THESE ADJUSTMENTS, WHETHER ADDITIONS OR SUBTRACTIONS TO THE DUTIABLE TOTAL AMOUNT, ARE TRANSMITTED IN THE C18 RECORD. THE TOTAL OF THESE UPS OR DOWNS ARE TRANSMITTED IN THE C84 RECORD IN POS 19-33. IF THE TOTAL ADJUSTMENTS IS A NEGATIVE NUMBER, POS 34 OF THE C84 RECORD MUST BE AN "N". **NOTE** - THIS IS A HEADER LEVEL MESSAGE. IF ADJUSTMENTS ARE MADE AT THE INVOICE LINE LEVEL, THOSE TOTALS ARE NOT CARRIED FORWARD TO THE C84 RECORD.

07I:	VESSEL CODE & NAME SUBMITTED

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO A CARGO RELEASE DATA INPUT TRANSACTION (APPLICATION HI). ABI WILL ACCEPT THE VESSEL NAME, BUT NOT THE VESSEL CODE. IF BOTH ARE TRANSMITTED, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE ISSUED. (NOTE - 5-CHARACTER VESSEL CODES ARE NO LONGER USED).

LU2:	INVALID LUMBER PERMIT TYPE

THE SOFTWOOD LUMBER PERMIT TYPE IS TRANSMITTED IN THE 40 REC, POS 70-72. IT IS MANDATORY FOR MERCHANDISE ENTERED UNDER ONE OF THE FOLLOWING TARIFF NUMBER SUBHEADINGS OF 44071000, 44091020, OR 44091090 WITH PROVINCE OF ORIGIN CODES: XA, XC, XO, OR XQ. POS 70 OF THE 40 REC MUST CONTAIN EITHER "A", "B", "C", OR "D." IF POS 70 CONTAINS "A", "B", OR "C", THEN POS 71-72 MUST CONTAIN ZEROES OR SPACES. IF POS 70 CONTAINS "D", THEN POS 71-72 MUST CONTAIN A TWO-CHARACTER NUMERIC CODE THAT FALLS WITHIN THE RANGE OF 01 THROUGH 20, DEPENDING ON THE CALENDAR QUARTER DURING WHICH THE PERMIT IS ISSUED. SEE ADMIN MESSAGE 97-0579 FOR MORE INFORMATION ON LUMBER PERMITS.

2H9:	BOND TERMINATED

THE FILER WILL RECEIVE THIS ERROR MESSAGE IF THE BOND FOR THE IMPORTER OF RECORD THEY ARE SENDING HAS A TERMINATION DATE IN THE BOND FILE EQUAL TO OR LATER THAN THE DATE OF ENTRY SENT BY THE FILER AS DETERMINED BY THE ENTRY DATE HIERARCHY. THE FILER MAY BE GETTING THIS REJECT BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT SENDING AN ESTIMATED DATE OF ENTRY AND THE EDIT IS BEING DONE AGAINST THE STATEMENT DATE. IF THE TRUE DATE OF ENTRY IS BEFORE THE BOND TERMINATION DATE THE FILER MAY RETRANSMIT THE TRANSACTION WITH AN ESTIMATED ENTRY DATE. THE BOND MUST BE RENEWED FOR FUTURE IMPORTATIONS.

RBK:	RECON IMPT ENT CANNOT = RECON SUM

THE FILER HAS ATTEMPTED TO GIVE AN IMPORT ENTRY WITH THE SAME ENTRY NUMBER AS THEY ARE USING FOR THE RECONCILIATION SUMMARY.

R1A:	NAFTA RECON - NO INCREASES

R17 RECORD AMOUNTS FOR DUTY, TAX, FEES AND INTEREST MUST BE ZERO IF R10 ISSUE-CODE = NF.

4KT:	CERT NOT REQD/COMPUTED FEE < 2.01

A COTTON FEE EXEMPTION CERTIFICATE NUMBER WAS ENTERED FOR A LINE WHOSE FEE IS LESS THAN $2.01 AND IS NOT, THEREFORE, PAYABLE. THE MOST COMMON REASON FOR THIS ERROR IS THAT THE FILER IS USING OUTDATED COTTON FEE RATES. THIS ERROR ALSO OCCURS WHEN THE COTTON FEE IS LESS THAN $2.01 AND THE FILER SENDS NO COTTON FEE BUT SENDS A DISCLAIMER OF ALL 9'S IN THE 51 RECORD.

VKX:	HLT: POS&LEN EXCEEDS FIELD LENGTH

THE LENGTH VALUE SPECIFIED IN THE OPTIONAL POSITION/LENGTH PARAMETER EXCEEDS THE TOTAL LENGTH OF THE FIELD. THE LENGTH MUST FIT WITHIN THE FIELD BEGINNING FROM THE SPECIFIED POSITION.

79N:	TARIFF NBR NOT ACTIVE FOR IT DTE

THE DATE THAT AN INTRANSIT ENTRY IS CREATED (OPENED) ESTABLISHES A DATE WHICH IS USED TO DETERMINE THE VALIDITY OF A GIVEN TARIFF NUMBER. IF THE ABI FILER TRANSMITS A TARIFF NUMBER THAT IS NOT VALID AS OF THE 'INBOND' DATE, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT. IF THE TARIFF NUMBER BEING REJECTED IS AN 8 DIGIT TARIFF NUMBER (FROM CHAPTER 99, USUALLY), AND THE FILER TRANSMITS 10 - DIGITS, THIS ERROR WILL ALSO RESULT.

2AL:	SURETY CODE INVALID

IF THE FILER TRANSMITS BOND CODE 8 (CONTINUOUS BOND) IN THE SUMMARY INPUT (REC 10, POS 49), THE SURETY CODE IN REC 10, POS 73-75 MUST BE LISTED ON THE BOND DATABASE FILE AND MUST BE IN ACTIVE STATUS. IN ADDITION, THE SURETY CODE CITED IN THE 10 RECORD MUST MATCH THE SURETY CODE IN THE BOND DATABASE FILE FOR THE IMPORTER NUMBER TRANSMITTED IN REC 10, POS 8-19. (THE SURETY CODE FIELD CANNOT BE BLANK, EITHER). IF CASH IS USED IN LIEU OF A BOND, THE BOND TYPE MUST BE A "9" AND SURETY CODE "998" MUST BE USED. IF BOND TYPE "0" IS SENT, AND NO SURETY CODE IS SENT, AS WELL, THIS MESSAGES RESULTS. THIS MESSAGE WILL ALSO APPEAR IF THE IMPORTER HAS TWO ACTIVE CONTINUOUS BONDS IN EFFECT AT THE SAME TIME. THE SURETY CODE FOR THE BOND THAT WENT INTO EFFECT FIRST MUST BE USED ON SUMMARY INPUT TRANSACTIONS. SURETY CODES ARE VALIDATED BASED ON DATE OF RELEASE, SO A SUMMARY TRANSMITTED WITH A SURETY CODE BASED ON ESTIMATED ENTRY DATE WILL ALSO REJECT IF A DIFFERENT SURETY CODE WAS IN EFFECT AT THE TIME OF RELEASE. FOR RECONCILIATION, THE SURETY CODE GIVEN MUST BE VALID ON CUSTOMS FILE.

ED0:	SYSTEM PROBLEM - CALL CLIENT REP

THIS "GENERIC" MESSAGE WILL SHOW UP PERIODICALLY, USUALLY WITH DATABASE ERRORS. AS OF JULY 1999, THIS MESSAGE IS BEING ASSIGNED TO ENTRIES IN WHICH THE FILER IS ATTEMPTING TO USE SPI "E" WITH HTS 9802008015 (WHICH IS ELIGIBLE FOR CARIBBEAN BASIN INITIATIVE FILING UNDER SPI "E") WITH A SECOND TARIFF NUMBER THAT IS NOT CBI ELIGIBLE. IN THIS CASE, THE FILER MAY NOT CLAIM "E" FOR THE CUSTOMS LINE IN QUESTION. AS STATED ABOVE, THIS ERROR MESSAGE CAN CHANGE MEANINGS AS DATABASE PROBLEMS WARRANT.

632:	AMOUNT CANNOT EXCEED 9-DIGITS

TAX, DUTY, CVD OR ADD AMOUNT IS TOO LARGE

14H:	INVALID DUTY ENTERED

DUTY ENTERED ON LINE ITEM IS NON-NUMERIC OR OTHERWISE INVALID.

95H:	INVALID OTHER RECON INDICATOR

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN ENTRY SUMMARY INPUT TRANSACTION (APPLICATION EI). IF THE FILER DESIRES TO FLAG AN IMPORT ENTRY FOR A NON- NAFTA RECONCILIATION, THE SUMMARY INPUT MUST CONTAIN ONE OF SEVEN CODES WHICH ARE TRANSMITTED IN THE 20 REC, POS 77-79. THE ONLY ALLOWABLE CODES ARE, AS OF SEP 1998, ARE "001" THROUGH "007". IF ANY OTHER CODE, EXCEPT THREE BLANK CHARACTERS WHEN NO RECONCILIATION IS ELECTED, IS TRANSMITTED IN THIS FIELD, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED.

VGL:	FD 701: UOM 1 REQUIRED

THIS ERROR MESSAGE OCCURS WHEN A FILER TRANSMITS A QUANTITY IN POSITIONS 5-14 OF THE FD02 RECORD BUT DOES NOT TRANSMIT A UNIT OF MEASURE IN POSITIONS 15-18 OF THE FD02 RECORD. THIS WOULD ALSO APPLY TO SUBSEQUENT QUANTITIES IN THE FD02 RECORD.

40L:	SPI INVALID FOR COUNTRY OF ORIGIN

SPECIAL PROGRAMS THAT REDUCE OR ELIMINATE DUTY ARE NOT APPLICABLE TO EVERY COUNTRY OF ORIGIN THAT MAY APPEAR ON AN IMPORT TRANSACTION. GSP (SPI "A") APPLIES ONLY TO THOSE COUNTRIES LISTED AS BENEFICIARY DEVELOPING COUNTRIES; ANDEAN PREFERENCE (SPI "J") APPLIES ONLY TO THOSE COUNTRIES CODED AS ELIGIBLE FOR THAT PROGRAM. THE SPECIAL PROGRAMS DATABASE LISTS WHICH COUNTRIES ARE ELIGIBLE FOR VARIOUS SPECIAL PROGRAMS. IF A SUMMARY INPUT CONTAINS A SPECIAL PROGRAM INDICATOR WHICH IS NOT APPLICABLE TO THE TRANSMITTED COUNTRY OF ORIGIN, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED. NOTE: IF THE LINE HAS TWO TARIFF NUMBERS, BOTH OF WHICH ARE NAFTA ELIGIBLE, THE SPI'S USED MUST AGREE WITH THE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN. IF THE FILER USES "CA" FOR THE SPI IN EITHER THE 50 OR 70 RECORD, WITH "MX" IN THE 40 RECORD AS C/O, THIS MESSAGE WILL ALSO BE GENERATED. SEE ERROR MSG 40J, AS WELL.

41D:	WARNING TSUSA EFFECT. W/IN 3 WKS.

THIS MESSAGE IS A WARNING MESSAGE, NOT A REJECTION. IT USUALLY REFERS TO THE FACT THAT THE ENTRY SUMMARY CONTAINS A NEWLY CREATED TARIFF NUMBER THAT HAS GONE INTO EFFECT WITHIN  THE LAST THREE CALENDAR WEEKS. IT HAS NO BEARING ON THE PROCESSING OF THE CARGO RELEASE TRANSACTION.

VLW:	DRAWBACK ACCELERATED CODE INVALID

IN THE DRAWBACK MODULE THIS MESSAGE MEANS THE FILER HAS USED A CODE OF OTHER THAN 'Y' (YES) OR 'N' (NO) IF VIA DISKETTE OR 'Y' (YES) OR 'N' (NO) IF ABI FOR WHETHER THIS IS AN ACCELERATED CLAIM. THE FILER MUST USE EITHER 'Y' ('Y' IF ABI) OR 'N'('N' IF ABI) AND CANNOT LEAVE A SPACE IN THE FIELD.

452:	CHARGES AMOUNT INVALID

IF THERE ARE NO CHARGES, OR CHARGES ARE LESS THAN $ 1 AN "X" WILL BE LISTED AS VALUE OF CHARGES. IN CASE OF OVERLAND SHIPMENTS ARRIVING FROM MEXICO OR CANADA "X" IS ALWAYS SHOWN. IF AGGREGATE CHARGES COVER MERCHANDISE ENTERED UNDER SEVERAL ITEM NUMBERS, AND EXACT BREAKDOWN IS UNKNOWN, CHARGES SHALL BE PRORATED BY VALUE. THE ABOVE DOES NOT APPLY TO ABI TRANSMISSIONS. CHARGES ARE TRANSMITTED IN THE ENTRY SUMMARY INPUT (EI) IN THE 40 REC, POS 48-57. CHARGES ARE REQUIRED FOR ALL MOT'S EXCEPT 60 (HAND-CARRIED) AND FOR ALL ENTRIES EXCEPT INFORMAL ENTRIES. AN AMOUNT OF AT LEAST ONE DOLLAR IS REQUIRED FOR THIS FIELD. ABI WILL NOT ACCEPT "X" FOR CHARGES FOR SHIPMENTS FROM EITHER MEXICO OR CANADA. LINE VALUES LESS THAN $2,000 ($250 FOR SOME TEXTILE PRODUCTS) DO NOT REQUIRE CHARGES TO BE TRANSMITTED.

VK1:	HLS: RELATIONAL OPERATOR INVALID

THE RELATIONAL OPERATOR CODE MUST BE ONE OF THE FOLLOWING: LT = LESS THAN LE = LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO EQ = EQUAL  GE = GREATER THAN OR EQUAL TO NE = NOT EQUAL NY = IS NULL NN = NOT NULL NV = NULL VALUE SP = STRING PRESENT SA = STRING ABSENT IG = IGNORE

06J:	UNLDNG PORT NOT = ENTRY PORT

UNLADING PORT IS NOT EQUAL TO THE ENTRY PORT; YET THIS ENTRY HAS NOT BEEN FLAGGED AS PAIRED CITIES.

382:	ORIGIN COUNTRY: IMPRTS RESTRICTED

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN THE HI/HN TRANSACTION WHEN A COUNTRY OF ORIGIN TRANSMITTED THAT IS IN THE COUNTRY CODE FILE AS A RESTRICTED COUNTRY. NO IMPORTS ARE ALLOWED. THE MESSAGE IN THE EI TRANSACTION IS '38N'.

VGD:	FD 701: INV CNTRY OF PRODUCTION

THE FDA COUNTRY OF PRODUCTION IS A REQUIRED DATA ELEMENT IN THE FDA INTERFACE. THE COUNTRY MUST BE A VALID COUNTRY CODE. THIS IS THE ONLY EDIT PERFORMED SO A COUNTRY CODE THAT IS VALID, BUT RESTRICTED FOR ABI PURPOSES, WILL GO THROUGH THE FDA PORTION.

VL9:	DRAWBACK CLAIMANTID INVALID

THIS ERROR MESSAGE INDICATES THAT THE FORMAT OF THE DRAWBACK CLAIMANT ID IS NOT A VALID IRS/SS/CUSTOMS ASSIGNED NUMBER FORMAT. VALID IRS FORMAT IS NN-NNNNNNNXX (WHERE 'XX'=SUFFIX); SS IS NNN-NN-NNNN; CUSTOMS ASSIGNED NUMBER IS YYDDPP-NNNNN.

AFA:	ELEC INVOICE INDICATOR INVALID

THE ELECTRONIC INVOICE INDICATOR IS SENT IN POSITION 56 OF THE EI 10 RECORD. IT INDICATES THAT THE ENTRY IS PART OF THE AII PROGRAM. THE ONLY INDICATOR ALLOWED IS 'E' IF THE ENTRY IS BEING TRANSMITTED AS AN AII ENTRY, OTHERWISE SPACE FILL.
