ABI Error Message

941:	TAXES DO NOT MATCH

THE TAX AMOUNT TRANSMITTED IN THE 60 REC, POS 59-68 IS NOT AN EXACT MATCH TO THE TOTAL TAX TRANSMITTED IN THE 90 REC, POS 14-24.THIS MESSAGE APPLIES TO AN ENTRY SUMMARY TRANSACTION (APPLICATION EI), BUT THIS ERROR WILL NORMALLY BE FOUND IN THE EY OUTPUT RECORD AND THE ERROR MESSAGE NUMBER DOES NOT DISPLAY.

56F:	ISSUER CODE REQUIRED

CARGO RELEASE INPUT TRANSACTIONS (APPLICATION HI) WHICH REPORT MODE OF TRANSPORTATION 10 OR 11 MUST ALSO REPORT A STANDARD CARRIER ALPHA CODE (SCAC). THIS ELEMENT IS TRANSMITTED IN THE HA, POS 70-73. IF THE ISSUER CODE IS OMITTED (ALL BLANKS IN THE FIELD), THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT. NOTE: IF THE ERROR DESCRIBED ABOVE IS CONTAINED WITHIN AN ENTRY SUMMARY TRANSACTION (APPLICATION EI), ERROR MESSAGE ADJ WILL BE GENERATED. AS OF MARCH 2000, THIS ERROR MESSAGE IS NOW SENT IN RESPONSE TO AN ENTRY SUMMARY INPUT THAT OMITS THE ISSUER CODE IN THE 22 REC, POS 70-73.

89O:	MPF REQUIRED

THIS ENTRY REQUIRES A MERCHANDISE PROCESSING FEE BUT NONE WAS ENTERED. MPF IS DUE ON ALL ENTRIES UNLESS OTHERWISE EXEMPT. SOME OF THE EXEMPTIONS ARE: -- ALL TARIFF NUMBERS IN CHAPTER 98, EXCEPT 98020060NN AND 98020080NN. -- ENTRIES FROM INSULAR POSSESSIONS OF THE UNITED STATES. -- ENTRIES FROM CARRIBEAN INITIATIVE COUNTRIES (SPI E) OR LDDC COUNTRIES. -- INFORMAL ENTRIES (ALTHOUGH AN INFORMAL MPF IS REQUIRED AT THE ENTRY LEVEL.) -- NAFTA ENTRIES FROM CANADA.

361:	IT CHECK DIGIT ERROR

THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT IF AN AIR WAYBILL NUMBER OR A CONVENTIONAL INBOND NUMBER (9 NUMERIC) IS TRANSMITTED WITH AN INCORRECT CHECK DIGIT. IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE TRANSMITTING FILER TO CONFIRM WHETHER THE ERROR IS IN THE CHECK DIGIT ITSELF OR IN ONE OF THE PRECEDING DIGITS. NOTE: IF THE CHECK DIGIT ERROR OCCURS ON A PAPERLESS MASTER INBOND NUMBER (THOSE STARTING WITH "V"), ERROR MESSAGE 2CI WILL BE GENERATED. THE AMS SYSTEM WILL ACCEPT A TRANSMISSION WITH AN INCORRECT CHECK DIGIT. CHECK AMS FOR THE BILL OF LADING OR IN-BOND NUMBER. IF IT IS IN AMS, YOUR ABI CLIENT REPRESENTATIVE CAN RUN THE NUMBER THROUGH THE CHECK DIGIT CALCULATOR. IF AMS HAS THE INCORRECT CHECK DIGIT, ADVISE THE AMS CARRIER TO CORRECT AND RE-TRANSMIT WITH THE PROPER CHECK DIGIT.

15D:	TARIFF NUMBER OUT OF SEQUENCE

THE REJECTED TARIFF NUMBER IS NOT IN THE PROPER SEQUENCE WHEN COMPARED TO THE OTHER TARIFF NUMBERS REPORTED FOR THIS LINE ON THE ENTRY. IF THE REJECTED LINE INVOLVES CHARPER 98 OR 99 TARIFF NUMBERS, THOSE NUMBERS ARE REPORTED BEFORE THE CHAPTER 1-97 NUMBERS. FOR WATCHES, THE TARIFF NUMBERS SHOULD ALWAYS BE REPORTED FOR THE MOVEMENT/ CASE/BATTERY/BAND IN THAT ORDER. IN MOST CASES, THE TARIFF NUMBERS WILL BE IN NUMBERICAL ORDER, BUT FOR TARIFF NUMBER 9102128010 (MOVEMENT/CASE), 9102128020 (BATTERY) AND 9102124000 (BAND), THE NUMBERS MUST BE REPORTED IN THE ORDER SHOWN HERE.

4NN:	LINE ITEM VALUE ERROR

IF A FILER TRANSMITS A CARGO RELEASE DATA TRANSACTION (APPLICATION HI), AND ALSO ELECTS TO REPORT VALUES AT THE LINE ITEM LEVEL (H5 REC, POS 45-54), THE TOTAL OF ALL VALUES IN THE H5 RECORD MUST EQUAL THE AMOUNT SHOWN AS THE TOTAL ENTRY VALUE (H2 REC, POS 29-38). THE TOTAL DOES NOT AGREE, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED.

VDH:	INCORRECTLY ESTIMATED MPF MINIMUM

CLASS CODE 499 SHOULD INDICATE THE TOTAL MERCHANDISE PROCESSING FEES (MPF) FROM ALL LINE-ITEM "62" RECORDS. IF THE ACTUAL TOTAL IS LESS THAN $25.00, USE $25.00 IN THE "89" RECORD. IF THE ENTRY IN QUESTION INVOLES NAFTA, THE MINIMUM MPF IS $21.00 UNLESS ONE OR MORE LINES DO NOT CLAIM NAFTA. IF THE FILER DOES NOT TRANSMIT THE APPROPRIATE MINIMUM MPF FOR A NAFTA ENTRY, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL ALSO BE GENERATED.

4GS:	NO QUOTA RECORDS FOR TARIFF

QUOTA RECORDS CONTAIN QUOTA TYPE = 'S' (STATISTICAL). THESE RECORDS ARE NOT FOR PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE PER CITA.

99H:	ENTRY/BOND TYPE REQUIRES C/O 'CA'

FOR ENTRY TYPE '23', AND BOND TYPE OF '0' OR SPACE REQUIRES COUNTRY OF ORIGIN OF 'CA'.

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.

Q19:	'QT' PAYMENT TYPE INVALID

THE PAYMENT TYPE (REC QT, POS 9-10) MUST BE "01" AT THE CURRENT TIME. EVENTUALLY, OTHER CUSTOMS OBLIGATIONS SUCH AS BILLS WILL BE ELIGIBLE FOR ACH PAYMENT USING OTHER PAYMENT TYPE INDICATORS. UNTIL THAT ENHANCEMENT IS ANNOUNCED, ONLY PAYMENT TYPE 01 WILL BE ACCEPTED BY ABI (WHICH MEANS THAT SPACES "00" OR A "1" WILL ALSO BE REJECTED).

R1A:	NAFTA RECON - NO INCREASES

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

VPV:	D13 RECORD MUST CONTAIN DATA

THIS ERROR MESSAGE OCCURS IN THE NAFTA DUTY DEFERRAL MODULE. IF THERE ARE 2ND OR 3RD QUANTITY/UNIT OF MEASURE, THEY ARE SENT IN THIS CONDITIONAL RECORD. IF THIS RECORD IS SENT WITHOUT DATA THIS REJECT MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED.

4JD:	TARIFF 1 / TARIFF 2 DISCREPANCY

A SECOND TARIFF NUMBER WITHIN CHAPTERS '50' THRU '63' WAS ENTERED WITH A PRIMARY TARIFF NUMBER OF 9802005010 OR 9802008040. SEE US NOTE 2B WHICH EXCLUDES TESTILE ARTICLES. SINCE THE ABOVE WAS WRITTEN CHANGE REQUESTS ADDED THE FOLLOWING EDITS TO 9802008040: A HTS NUMBER WITH A TEXTILE CATEGORY NUMBER MAY NOT BE USED AS THE ADDITIONAL TARIFF NUMBER UNLESS IT IS CHAPTER 64.

ACZ:	ADDRESS HAS LEADING SPACE

A FILER CAN ADD ADDRESS INFORMATION IN SEVERAL APPLICATIONS. IF THE ADDRESS PORTION IS TRANSMITTED WITH A LEADING SPACE IN THE FIRST POSITION, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT.

95P:	DUTY COMP DTE > 60 DAYS IN FUTURE

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN ENTRY SUMMARY INPUT TRANSACTION (APPLICATION EI). IF THE FILER TRANSMITS A PAYMENT DUE DATE MORE THAN 60 DAYS IN THE FUTURE AND THE PAY DUE DATE IS USED TO ESTABLISH THE DUTY COMPUTATION DATE (SEE THE COMP DATE HIERARCHY ON PAGE ENS-28 OF THE CATAIR), THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED. THIS MESSAGE WILL ALSO OCCUR IF A FILER RETRANSMITS AN ENTRY WITH A VALID PAYMENT DUE DATE, BUT THE ENAI RECORD HAS ERRONEOUSLY BEEN POSTED WITH AN "ENTRY DATE" THAT WAS ONE YEAR LATER THAN THE ACTUAL ENTRY DATE. ABI COMPARED THE RETRANSMITTED PAY DUE DATE AND FOUND THAT THE ENTRY DATE WAS MORE THAN 60 DAYS IN THE FUTURE, WHEN COMPARED TO THE FILER'S PAYMENT DUE DATE.

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.

485:	REFERENCE # CF4811 NOT ON FILE

THIS IS A WARNING MESSAGE AND WILL NOT CAUSE, BY ITSELF, A REJECTION OF THE SUMMARY INPUT. THE CF4811 IS A SPECIAL ADDRESS NOTIFICATION FORM THAT IS SUBMITTED IN HARDCOPY TO LOCAL CUSTOMS. (IT IS NOT AN AUTOMATED PROCESS FOR ABI AT THIS TIME). THE CF4811 AUTHORIZES REFUNDS, DRAWBACK PAYMENTS AND LIQUIDATION NOTIFICATIONS TO BE SENT TO AN AGENT OF THE IMPORTER OF RECORD. THE 4811 DATABASE SHOWS THE RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN IMPORTERS AND THEIR AGENTS CREATED BY CF4811 PROCESSING. IF AN ABI FILER TRANSMITS HIS IDENTIFICATION NUMBER IN THE 10 REC, POS 32-43, (IN ONE OF THE THREE ACCEPTABLE FORMATS - SEE ERROR MESSAGE 486) AND THERE IS NO PRE-EXISTING CF4811 ON FILE IN THE DATABASE, THIS WARNING MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED. **NOTE** - FOR RECONCILIATION ENTRIES, THE ABSENCE OF A CF4811 IS A REJECT CONDITION.

51A:	INFORMAL ENTRY HAS TOO HIGH VALUE

VALUE LIMIT FOR ALL INFORMAL ENTRIES IS $2000, EXCEPT FOR 'AMERICAN GOODS RETURNED' IN CHAPTER 98 AND "PERSONAL" SHIPMENTS (INDICATOR "P" IS SENT BY THE FILER IN THE 30 REC, POS 39). SELECTED TARIFF NUMBERS ARE ALSO SUBJECT TO DOLLAR LIMITATIONS FOR INFORMAL ENTRIES AS LISTED IN APPENDIX K OF THE CATAIR, PAGE K-3. SEE ALSO ERROR MESSAGE 51D. FOR AMERICAN GOODS RETURNED ENTRIES, USING TARIFF 98010010NN ONLY, THE VALUE LIMIT IS $10,000. FOR INFORMAL ENTRIES USING "P", THERE IS NO VALUE LIMIT EXCEPT AS MENTIONED ABOVE IN APPENDIX K FOR CERTAIN TEXTILE PRODUCTS.

DEP:	VALID INPUT = 'Y'

THE ONLY VALID INPUT FOR THIS FIELD IS 'Y'. OTHERWISE, THE FIELD SHOULD REMAIN BLANK.

VDL:	MAX LINES ALLOWED IS 999

THE MAXIMUM NUMBER OF CUSTOMS LINES THAT CAN BE SENT ON AN ABI ENTRY SUMMARY IS 999.

B31:	MID NOT EQUAL MID ON VISA FILE

IF THE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN REPRESENTS AN "ELVIS" COUNTRY AND A VISA NUMBER IS REQUIRED THEN, THE MID NUMBER, AS PROVIDED BY THE ABI FILER IN THE EI (ENTRY SUMMARY) APPLICATION (60 RECORD), WILL BE VALIDATED AGAINST THE MID NUMBER ON THE ACS VISA FILE AS TRANSMITTED BY THE REPRESENTATIVE ELVIS COUNTRY. IF THE MID'S DO NOT MATCH THEN, THE TRANSACTION WILL BE REJECTED WITH THE AFOREMENTIONED ERROR MESSAGE.

EJ0:	NEGATIVE AMT IND NOT 'N' OR ' '

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN AUTOMATED INVOICE TRANSMISSION (APPLICATION CI). IF THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF CHARGES REPORTED IN ALL C17/C18 RECORDS (CODES "S" OR "C" ON THE C17 REC) EXCEED THE TOTAL OF ALL ALLOWANCE REPORTED IN ALL C17/C18 (CODES "A" OR "R" ON THE C17 RECORD), THE NEGATIVE AMOUNT INDICATOR SHOULD BE LEFT BLANK (" ").IF THE REVERSE IS TRUE, THEN THE NEGATIVE AMOUNT INDICATOR MUST BE "N". ANY OTHER CHARACTER IN THIS FIELD (C84 REC, POS 34) WILL RESULT IN THIS ERROR MESSAGE.

42A:	SPI INVALID FOR CATEGORY

IF SPI FOR THIS ENTRY IS'G' THEN CATEGORY MUST BE '443', '444', '643', '644', '843', OR '844'.

2C0:	BOND NOT IN EFFECT
