594:	INVALID DISTRICT /PORT OF UNLADING

THE PORT OF UNLADING (DIST/PORT CODE) MUST BE A VALID LOCATION AS SHOWN ON REGION/DISTRICT/PORT FILE (FOUR DIGIT DDPP). FILERS TRANSMIT THE PORT OF UNLADING FOR IMPORT SHIPMENTS IN THE ENTRY SUMMARY TRANSACTION (EI - 20 REC, POS 30-33) OR THE CARGO RELEASE TRANSACTION (HI - H1 REC, POS 65-68). IF THE PORT CODE TRANSMITTED DOES NOT EXIST ON THE DATABASE, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT. ***NOTE***- IN ADDITION TO THE ABOVE INFORMATION, A PORT THAT IS LISTED ON THE FILE MUST ALSO BE SET TO "Y" AS AN UNLADING PORT. IF THE PORT IS SET AS "N" FOR UNLADING PORT, THE ABOVE ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED.

661:	IMPORTER NUMBER SUFFIX IS INVALID

THE LAST TWO SPACES ON THE IR# FORMAT MAY NOT END IN OO, ZZ OR II.

549:	INVALID COLLECTION. MODE/PAY TYPE/DATE

THIS MESSAGE ARISES FROM AN ATTEMPT BY A NON-AUTHORIZED FILER TO SCHEDULE AN ENTRY SUMMARY FOR PAYMENT VIA STATEMENT PROCESSING.

BRU:	COMMENTS REQUIRED

COMMENTS ARE REQUIRED IN POSITIONS 5-79 OF THE RECON 'R15' ABI RECORD. POSITION 5 MUST BE > SPACE.

EJV:	INBOX IND MUST BE 'R' OR SPACE

THIS ERROR MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN AUTOMATED INVOICE TRANSACTION (APPLICATION CI). THE C01 REC, POS 56, PROVIDES THE FILER AN OPPORTUNITY TO INDICATE IF THE INVOICE BEING TRANSMITTED IS AN INITIAL INPUT (SPACE FILL THE POSITION) OR IS IN RESPONSE TO AN ABI REJECTION FROM CUSTOMS WHICH REQUESTED THE TRANSMISSION OF THE INSTANT INVOICE. IN THE LATTER CASE, THE ACCEPTABLE VALUE FOR THIS FIELD IS "R". ANY OTHER CHARACTER TRANSMITTED IN THIS FIELD WILL GENERATE THIS ERROR MESSAGE.

EIS:	LOCATION OR LOC CODED REQUIRED

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN AUTOMATED INVOICE TRANSMISSION (APPLICATION CI). THE C13 RECORD REPORTS THE LOCATION OF THE INVOICE DELI TERMS. POS 9-10 AND 11-15 MUST BE REPORTED IN COMBINATION TO REPORT A LOCATION CODE IDENTIFIER AND THE LOCATION CODE. IF THESE ARE NOT TRANSMIT THE ACTUAL LOCATION MUST BE TRANSMITTED IN POS 16-50. IF ALL THREE ELEMENTS ARE BLANK IN THE C13 RECORD, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED. THE SAME MESSAGE APPLIES TO THE C43 RECORD, AS WELL.

IN6:	ENT NOT PROCESSED THRU SELECT

THIS MESSAGE IS A RESPONSE TO A CARGO RELEASE RESULTS QUERY (APPLICATION IN). IT IS A NOTICE TO THE FILER THAT ON-LINE SELECTIVITY HAS NOT OCCURRED FOR THE ENTRY NUMBER BEING QUERIED. THERE CAN BE MANY REASONS FOR THIS, INCLUDING THE FACT THAT THE ENTRY DATA IS "PREMATURE" FOR CARGO RELEASE RESULTS (FIVE-DAY WINDOW FOR OCEAN OR 1-DAY WINDOW FOR AIR).

ACW:	STATE CODE MUST BE 'FN'

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN "ADDED 5106" TRANSACTION, APPLICATION IDENTIFIER TI. IF THE ABI FILER REQUESTS A CUSTOMS-ASSIGNED NUMBER FOR A FOREIGN-BASED COMPANY, AND THE COMPANY IS LOCATED IN A COUNTRY OTHER THAN CANADA, THE INPUT RECORDS MUST SHOW "FN" AS THE STATE CODE. IF THE T2 RECORD, POS 68-69 DOES NOT REFLECT "FN" OR IS LEFT BLANK, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED.

THE REQUIRED SOLID WOOD PACKING MATERIAL INDICATOR MUST BE '1' OR '2'.

564:	LINE MISSING/OUT OF SEQ/INVALID

SUMMARY INPUT CONSISTS OF A SERIES OF RECORDS DESCRIBED IN THE CATAIR. IF ANY REQUIRED RECORDS ARE TRANSMITTED IN THE WRONG ORDER, OR IF REQUIRED RECORDS ARE OMITTED IN THE TRANSMISSION, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT. THIS MESSAGE ALSO APPLIES TO OTHER APPLICATIONS, AS DESCRIBED IN THE CATAIR, FOR WHICH RECORDS ARE TRANSMITTED THAT ARE EITHER OUT OF PROPER SEQUENCE, OR ARE NOT PART OF THE APPLICATION. FOR EXAMPLE, TRANSMITTING THE OGA CORRECTION APPLICATION (CODE CP) WITH FCC DATA WILL CAUSE THIS ERROR MESSAGE. OMITTING THE CARRIER CODE IN THE 01 RECORD FOR A BORDER CARGO RELEASE INPUT (HN) FOR AN AMS PORT WILL GET THIS MESSAGE. MOST OTHER SITUATIONS THAT RESULT IN THIS ERROR ARE FAIRLY STRAIGHTFORWARD AS TO WHICH RECORDS MAY BE MISSING OR SENT IN ERROR. FOR RECON ENTRIES, CHECK EVERY R20 RECORD THAT HAS A FOLLOWING R21 RECORD. THERE MUST BE A TRAILER COUNTER IN POS 78-79 OF THE R20 WHICH SHOWS HOW MANY R21'S ARE BEING INCLUDED FOR THE ENTRY IN THE R20. IF THE R20 SHOWS '01' IN POS 78-79, THERE MUST BE ONLY 1 R21 RECORD, AND SO ON. THE REVERSE IS TRUE, AS WELL: IF NO R21 REC, THE R20 MUST SHOW '00'.

EIG:	PART PACKAGE INDICATOR NOT 0 OR 1

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN AUTOMATED INVOICE TRANSMISSION (APPLICATION CI). THE PART PACKAGE INDICATOR IS TRANSMITTED IN THE C06 REC, POS 21 (OR THE LINE LEVEL C49 REC, POS 21). THE ONLY ACCEPTABLE VALUES FOR THIS ELEMENT ARE "0" (INDICATING THAT THE SHIPPING UNIT IDENTIFIED IN THE C06 RECORD IS ENTIRELY COVERED BY THE INVOICE) OR "1" (INDICATING THAT THE SHIPPING UNIT IN THE C06 RECORD IS NOT ENTIRELY COVERED BY THE INVOICE). ANY OTHER VALUE IN THIS FIELD, INCLUDING SPACES, WILL GENERATE THIS ERROR MESSAGE.

AQ4:	TEAM DOES NOT EXIST/DDPP MISMATCH

THE DISTRICT-PORT CODE WHERE THE PROTEST, PETITION, OR INTERVENTION IS BEING FILED IS NOT THE SAME AS THAT OF THE TEAM TO WHOM THE PROTEST, PETITION, OR INTERVENTION IS ADDRESSED. OR THERE IS NO MATCH IN ACS FOR THE TEAM CODE USED.

VLX:	DRAWBACK CM/CD CODE INVALID

THIS DRAWBACK MODULE ERROR MESSAGE MEANS THAT THE FILER USED AN INDICATOR OF OTHER THAN 'E' (DIRECT DESIGNATION), 'D' (DESIGNATION FROM A CD) OR 'M' (DESIGNATION FROM A CM) WHERE THEY ARE GIVING IMPORT ENTRY DATA BECAUSE IT IS AVAILABLE.

RB0:	ENTRY FEE TRAILER # OUT OF SEQ

FOR RECONCILIATION, THIS MEANS THAT THE SEQUENCING OF THE 'R21' FEE TRAILER RECORDS FOR THE IMPORT ENTRIES IS OUT OF ORDER.

8WZ:	INVALID SUB-HOUSE BL/AWB NUMBER

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO A BILL OF LADING UPDATE TRANSACTION (APPLICATION LN). THE SUB-HOUSE BILL NUMBER IS TRANSMTTED IN THE L3 REC, POS 52-63. IF THE NUMBER REPORTED IN THIS FIELD IS FEWER THAN 12 CHARACTERS LONG, THE NUMBER SHOULD BE LEFT JUSTIFIED. IF ANY LEADING SPACES ARE INCLUDED IN THE HOUSE BILL NUMBER, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED.

VEW:	FDA STATUS CONFLICTING/NOT ALLOWD

THIS ERROR MESSAGE IS AN INTERNAL REJECT MESSAGE BETWEEN CUSTOMS ACS AND FDA'S SYSTEM. IT OCCURS WHEN FDA ATTEMPTS TO SEND A PROCESSING STATUS ON AN ENTRY THAT HAS ALREADY BEEN PROCESSED WITH THE SAME STATUS OR A STATUS THAT DENOTES A COMPLETION OF THE ENTRY. THIS MESSAGE DOES NOT GO TO THE FILER NOR DOES IT AFFECT THE FDE STATUS OF THE ENTRY.

95J:	NOT A RECONCILIATION IMPORTER

THIS MESSAGE INDICATES THAT THE IMPORTER OF RECORD TRANSMITTED IN THE ENTRY SUMMARY INPUT (APPLICATION EI) HAS NOT BEEN PREVIOUSLY APPROVED BY HQ FOR PARTICIPATION IN THE RECONCILIATION PROGRAM. APPROVED IMPORTERS ARE LISTED IN THE RCIL DATABASE. THIS ERROR MESSAGE ALSO OCCURED IN OCTOBER 1999 WHEN AN IMPORTER NUMBER WAS FROZEN WHEN THE BOND WAS SET TO EXPIRE AT MIDNIGHT. THE NEW BOND TO TAKE EFFECT THE NEXT DAY DID NOT HAVE A RECONCILIATION RIDER. RECONCILIATION CONTACT WAS INFORMED AND COORDINATED SOLUTION.

DKF:	CLAIM TOTAL MUST EXCEED $0.00

THIS DRAWBACK MODULE MESSAGE MEANS THAT, ALTHOUGH A CLAIM FOR $0.00 MAY BE AGAINST AN INDIVIDUAL IMPORT ENTRY OR CM (TO COVER THOSE CASES WHERE THE DRAWBACK AMOUNT DUE IS LESS THAN $0.01) THE TOTAL DRAWBACK CLAIM MUST BE > $0.00 IN THE 'CT' CLAIM TRAILER RECORDS OR ABI 'D90' RECORD.

39B:	INVALID DUTY FREE CLAIM

THIS MESSAGE WILL OCCUR IF THE FILER ATTEMPTS TO MAKE A DUTY-FREE CLAIM THAT IS NOT APPROPRIATE TO THE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN/COUNTRY OF EXPORT COMBINATION. FOR EXAMPLE, INSULAR POSSESSIONS (SPI "Y") ARE ENTITLED TO SHIP CARGO DUTY FREE TO THE UNITED STATES, BUT ONLY IF THE SHIPMENT COMES DIRECTLY FROM THE POSSESSION. THEREFORE, IF THE COUNTRY OF EXPORT (50 REC, POS 69-70) IS NOT IDENTICAL TO THE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN (40 REC, POS 6-7), AND THE FILER TRANSMITS "Y" IN POS 3 OF THE 50 RECORD, THIS ERROR WILL RESULT. THIS MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED IF SPI "Y" IS USED FOR AMERICAN GOODS RETURNED PRODUCTS (CHAPT 98010010NN), AS THESE ARTICLES ARE UNCONDITIONALLY FREE OF DUTY AND THEREFORE DO NOT REQUIRE A SPECIAL PROGRAM IN ORDER TO CLAIM DUTY-FREE STATUS.

4KI:	GUAM VISA: ENTRY MUST BE NON-ABI

IF COUNTRY OF ORIGIN IS GUAM AND VISA NUMBER INDICATES GUAM, THE ENTRY MUST NON-ABI.

EJC:	INVALID DIFFERENCE REASON CODE

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN AUTOMATED INVOICE TRANSMISSION (APPLICATION CI). THE C39 RECORD, POS 22-23, PROVIDES FOR THE INSERTION OF ONE OF 24 VALID TWO-CHARACTER "REASON FOR DIFFERENCE CODES". THE USE OF ANY OTHER CODE, OR A BLANK FIELD, WILL GENERATE THIS ERROR MESSAGE.

DKG:	CLAIM EXISTS - SUBMIT 'DELETE'

THIS MESSAGE WILL APPEAR IF THE FILER HAS USED AN ADDITION/DELETION CODE OF 'A' ON THE 'CH' HEADER RECORD OF THE DRAWBACK DISKETTE (THE 'D10' RECORD FOR ABI) AND THE DRAWBACK CLAIM ALREADY EXISTS ON CUSTOMS FILE. 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. IF NOT IN CUSTOMS STATUS, FILER MUST SUBMIT A 'D' ACTION CODE. NOTE: THE CLAIM CANNOT BE DELETED AT ALL IF ACCELERATED DRAWBACK HAS BEEN PAID. IF ACCELERATED 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.
