2A7:	CARGO RELEASE DATA NOT ON FILE

THIS MESSAGE GENERALLY INDICATES A PROBLEM IN THE CREATION OF CARGO SELECTIVITY RECORDS FROM FILER'S INPUT. EXAMPLE: A FILER SENT IN SEVERAL ENTRIES USING BORDER CARGO RELEASE (APPLICATION HN). BEFORE ABI COULD COMPLETE THE PROCESSING OF THE ENTRIES, THE FILER'S SYSTEM SENT THE SAME ENTRIES AGAIN (WITHIN 12 SECONDS OF THE FIRST TRANSMISSION). THIS DUPLICATION CAUSED DATABASE (DB) ERRORS ON THOSE ENTRIES THAT WERE BEING PROCESSED AT THE INSTANT THE SECOND ITERATION OF THE SAME ENTRY NUMBER REACHED THE MAINFRAME. THE SECOND SET OF ENTRIES HAD PROCESSING DONE, BUT NO ON-LINE RECORDS WERE CREATED. THE ERROR MESSAGE ABOVE WAS CREATED AND ATTACHED TO THE SECOND SET OF ENTRY NUMBERS. THE SOLUTION, IN ALMOST ALL CASES, IS FOR THE FILER TO TRANSMIT ONLY ONCE AND TO WAIT FOR RESULTS BEFORE RE-SUBMITTING DATA FOR THE SAME ENTRY NUMBER.
