VH5:	DT HS7: DUPLICATE VIN ENCOUNTERED

IF TWO SETS OF DOT DATA ARE TRANSMITTED FOR THE SAME CUSTOMS LINE ON AN ENTRY, THE VIN NUMBERS TRANSMITTED IN THE DT02 RECORD CANNOT BE THE SAME. IF THEY ARE, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT. (NOTE: IF THE FILER NEEDS TO REPORT MORE THAN ONE VIN NUMBER FOR MULTIPLE IMPORTS ON THE SAME CUSTOMS LINE, A SEPARATE SET OF DT01/DT02 RECORDS IS REQUIRED FOR EACH VIN. THE DT03, ORIGINALLY DESIGNED TO PROVIDE SPACE TO REPORT MULTIPLE VINS, WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED BY ABI IF A DT02 IS ALSO TRANSMITTED. FOR BOX 2A ONLY, A DT03 CAN BE TRANSMITTED WITH VIN DATA IN LIEU OF A DT02. ALL OTHER BOX NUMBERS REQUIRE A DT02 TO REPORT VEHICLE DATA.)

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.

VN3:	CERT MFGR UOM INVALID

IN THE DRAWBACK MODULE IF A UNIT OF MEASURE IS GIVEN ON THE CM (CERT MFGR), MUST BE A VALID 3 ALPHA-NUMERIC CHARACTER CODE (E.G. BBL, CWT, PCS). ALSO, IT MEANS THAT IF A QUANTITY IS GIVEN, A UNIT OF MEASURE MUST BE REPORTED.

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.

ADF:	ENTRY IS NOT A STATEMENT ENTRY

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.

THREE PARTY QU LIFIER CODES ARE MANDATORY IN EVERY INVOICE: "UC" (ULTIMATE CONSIGNEE), "SU" (SUPPLIER), AND "IM" (IMPORTER). IF A C08 RECORD IS NOT TRANSMITTED WITH EACH OF THESE THREE CODES, AT A MINIMUM, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED.
