AAN:	CASE NUMBER INVALID/MISSING

THIS MESSAGE OCCURS IN THE ANTI-DUMPING (ADD) OR COUNTERVAILING DUTY (CVD) CASE NUMBER FIELD IN ABI REC 60, POS 13-22 (CVD CASE NO) OR POS 23-32 (ADD CASE NO); CATAIR, PAGE ENS-54). THE CASE NUMBER MUST BEGIN WITH AN 'A' IF ANTI-DUMPING OR A 'C' IF COUNTERVAILING DUTY AND BE FOLLOWED BY NINE NUMERICS. IF THE CASE NUMBER IS MISSING AND THE FILER HAS SENT AN ADD OR CVD ENTRY TYPE (03 OR 07), THIS MESSAGE IS ALSO GENERATED. THIS MESSAGE CAN APPEAR IF AN ADJUSTMENT IS ATTEMPTED ON A COFA TRANSACTION AND THE COFR SCREEN DOES NOT SHOW A CASE NUMBER = CASE NUMBER ON THE ORIGINAL COLLECTION.

DKW:	DUPLICATE TARIFF

IN THE AUTOMATED DRAWBACK MODULE EACH TARIFF NUMBER GIVEN ON A CLAIM CAN ONLY APPEAR ONCE. THIS ERROR WILL OCCUR IF A NUMBER HAS BEEN USED MORE THAN ONCE ON THE CLAIM AS SENT IN THE ABI 'D20' RECORDS.

AI2:	INVALID TARIFF ENTERED

ADA/CVD BROKER QUERY INPUT RECORD CONTAINED INVALID TARIFF

VAX:	PAY BASIS INVALID-CUSTOMS STATUS

ENTRY SUMMARIES THAT ARE FILED WITH CUSTOMS AND PAID BY CHECK ARE CONSIDERED TO BE "SINGLE PAY" ENTRIES.

IF THE FILER TRANSMITS A PAYMENT TYPE AND PAYMENT DUE DATE ON SUCH AN ENTRY, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED.

40J:	SPI CLAIM INVALID FOR TARIFF

MOST TARIFF NUMBERS ARE ELIGIBLE FOR ONE OR MORE SPECIAL PROGRAMS THAT REDUCE OR ELIMINATE THE DUTY REQUIRED. THESE ARE CODED AS "SPI" FOR THOSE PROGRAMS THAT THE INDIVIDUAL TARIFF NUMBER HAS BEEN FLAGGED FOR. IF AN ABI FILERS TRANSMITS AN SPI (SUMMARY TRANSACTION 50 REC, POS 3, OR POS 78-79; 70/80/81 REC, POS 13 OR POS 79-80) THAT IS NOT LISTED ON THE TARIFF FILE FOR THAT TARIFF NUMBER, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT. FILERS SHOULD VERIFY THE SPI FROM THEIR HARMONIZED QUERY OUTPUT (V3 REC, POS 53-72) TO ASCERTAIN THAT THE SELECTED SPI APPLIES TO THE TARIFF NUMBER. NOTE: AS STATED IN ERROR MESSAGE 40L, IF THE TRANSMITTED SPI (50 RECORD OR 70 RECORD) IS ON THE TARIFF FILE FOR THE TARIFF NUMBER, IT MUST NONETHELESS AGREE WITH THE C/O CODE (EITHER "MX" OR "CA"). IF THE C/O IS "CA", AN SPI OF "MX" WILL GENERATE THIS ERROR MESSAGE.

FOR AUTOMATED INVOICE INPUT PURPOSES, THE ABOVE MESSAGE RELATES TO DATA TRANSMITTED IN THE C33 REC, POS 19-21 OR 61-63. VALID UNITS OF MEASURE (AS LISTED IN APPENDIX C OF THE CATAIR) SHOULD BE REPORTED IN THESE TWO FIELDS; HOWEVER, ANY REASONABLE ABBREVIATION WILL BE ACCEPTED IN THE CI APPLICATION (I.E. "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.

IF THE PJ OR PREVIOUS QJ OR RJ WAS TRANSMITTED TO UPDATE TO SAMPLE SENT, A SUBSEQUENT QJ OR RJ CANNOT BE USED TO CHANGE THE SAMPLE SENT BACK TO NO SAMPLE. INSTEAD THE FILER MUST CONTACT THE PROTEST PROCESSING TEAM AT THE PORT WHERE THE PROTEST WAS FILED AND REQUEST CUSTOMS MANUALLY UPDATE THE RECORD.

THEREFORE, IF THE VESSEL FIELD IS LEFT BLANK (REPORTED IN REC H2, POS 60-79) ON THE CARGO INPUT APPLICATION (CODE HI), THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED.

VLM:	DRAWBACK DELETE CODE INVALID

THIS MESSAGE WILL APPEAR IF THE FILER HAS USED AN ADDITION/DELETION CODE OF 'D' ON THE 'CH' HEADER RECORD OF THE DRAWBACK DISKETTE (THE D10 ABI RECORD) AND THE CLAIM IS ALREADY IN A CUSTOMS STATUS. A DELETE OF A CLAIM BY A FILER CAN ONLY BE HONORED IF THE CLAIM IS STILL IN 'ABI' STATUS. ALL CLAIMS CREATED BY DISKETTE OR VIA ABI ARE PLACED IN ABI STATUS BY ACS WHEN FIRST ACCEPTED ERROR-FREE. THE SAME LOGIC APPLIES TO IMPORT ENTRIES FILED ELECTRONICALLY VIA ABI. ONCE IN CUSTOMS STATUS, THEY CANNOT BE DELETED BY THE FILER. NOTE: THE CLAIM CANNOT BE DELETED AT ALL IF ACCELERATED DRAWBACK HAS BEEN PAID. IF ACCELERATED DRAWBACK HAS BEEN PAID AND THE FILER WISHES TO DELETE, THE CLAIM WILL HAVE TO BE LIQUIDATED "NO DRAWBACK" AND A BILL ISSUED FOR REPAYMENT OF THE ACCELERATED DRAWBACK. IF ACCELERATED HAS NOT BEEN PAID, BUT THE ENTRY IS IN A CUSTOMS STATUS, IT CAN BE CANCELLED, BUT NOT DELETED.
