ABI Error Message

BR8:	INVALID ACTION CODE

THE FILER HAS ATTEMPTED A TRANSACTION CODE FOR 'RA' OF OTHER THAN 'A', 'R', 'D'.

VAS:	TEAM NOT EQUAL TO ACS TEAM

THIS MESSAGE IS NOT A REJECTION, BUT MERELY A WARNING. THE IMPORT SPECIALIST TEAM IS AN OPTIONAL RECORD IN THE SUMMARY INPUT TRANSACTION (EI). IT IS SENT IN THE 30 REC, POS 77-79. IF THE FILER TRANSMITS THIS ELEMENT AND IT DOES NOT AGREE WITH THE IMPORT SPECIALIST TEAM ASSIGNMENT DESIGNATED BY ACS, THIS MESSAGE WILL RESULT. IN SOME CASES, THE FILER MAY NOT KNOW WHICH TEAM WILL BE ASSIGNED BY ACS, ESPECIALLY IF THE ENTRY CONTAINS SEVERAL LINES. ACS WILL RESPOND TO THE INPUT WITH THIS WARNING MESSAGE AND WITH THE ACTUAL ASSIGNED TEAM NUMBER IN THE E0 OR E90 RECORD OUTPUT. THE FILER HAS THE OPTION OF RETRANSMITTING THE SUMMARY WITH THE CORRECT TEAM NUMBER (RARELY DONE) OR OF PRINTING THE SUMMARY DOCUMENTS WITH THE CORRECT TEAM NUMBER SHOWN.

B13:	WARNING - TRANSMITTED MID INVALID

INPUT ISO COUNTRY CODE OR PROVINCE CODE FIELD DOES NOT EXIST ON THE COUNTRY CODE DATABASE. ALSO, IF THE FILER'S TRANSMITTED MID, $4 REC, POS 57-71, IS INCORRECT (LESS THAN 7 CHARACTERS, MORE THAN 8 ALPHA CHARACTERS WITHOUT A NUMBER), THIS MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED.

VNP:	D11 RECORD MUST CONTAIN DATA

THIS ERROR MESSAGE COULD BE THE RESULT OF A DRAWBACK DISKETTE OR ABI PROBLEM. WHEN CUSTOMS FORMATTED THE RECORDS FROM THE DISKETTE OR WHEN THE DATA WAS SENT VIA ABI, NO DATA WAS PRESENT IN THE GIVEN RECORD. IF THE DISKETTE HAS NO DATA, THE PC PROGRAM SHOULD STOP IT BEFORE TRANSMISSION; HOWEVER, THERE MAY HAVE BEEN DATA THERE, BUT IT WAS BAD DATA.

8WY:	INVALID HOUSE BL/AWB NUMBER

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO A BILL OF LADING UPDATE TRANSACTION (APPLICATION LN). THE HOUSE BILL NUMBER IS TRANSMITTED IN THE L3 REC, POS 36-47. 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.

10S:	SURETY CODE REVOKED

THIS ERROR OCCURS WHEN THE ABI FILER'S SURETY CODE HAS BEEN REVOKED.

BR2:	ORIGINAL TAX MISMATCH (R90:R20)

THE TOTAL ORIGINAL TAX GIVEN BY THE FILER IN THE RECON'S 'R90' RECORD DOES MATCH THE SUM OF THE ORIGINAL TAX FROM ALL OF THE 'R20' RECORDS. THIS ONLY APPLIES TO ENTRY-BY-ENTRY RECONCILIATION.

27J:	*CENSUS* OR-AGR CHARGES/VALUE

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED ON ENTRY SUMMARY INPUT TRANSACATIONS WHEN THE LINE ITEM CHARGES (40 REC, POS 48-57) DIVIDED BY THE LINE ITEM VALUE (40 REC, POS 8-17) EXCEED A STATED PERCENTAGE. IF THE RATIO BETWEEN THE CHARGES AND VALUE EXCEEDS THE PERCENTAGE SHOWN ON TARIFF/CENSUS DATABASE BY MORE THAN 300 PERCENT, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED. (EXAMPLE: VALUE IS $400 FOR TARIFF 8541402000 AND THE CHARGES ARE $100. THIS IS A 25% RATIO. THE RECORD FOR THE TARIFF NUMBER SHOWS 7% AS THE UPPER LIMIT. 7% OF $400 IS $28. 300% OF THIS FIGURE WOULD BE $84. THEREFORE, CHARGES FROM $1 TO $84 WOULD NOT GENERATE THIS WARNING MESSAGE, BUT CHARGES OF $85 OR HIGHER WOULD.) FOR SHIPMENTS BY AIR, THE CHARGES IS SOMETIMES COMPARED TO THE GROSS WEIGHT (40 REC, POS18-27) AND THIS MESSAGE COULD BE GENERATED EVEN IN A CASE WHERE THE CHARGES/VALUE RATIO WAS BELOW 300% OF THE VALUE.

DDC:	NAFTA/OTH RECONCILIATN NOT FILED

A DRAWBACK CLAIM CANNOT BE FILED AGAINST AN IMPORT ENTRY THAT HAS BEEN FLAGGED FOR RECONCILIATION UNTIL SUCH TIME AS THE RECONCILIATION SUMMARY HAS BEEN FILED AND PAID. AT THE TIME OF LIQUIDATION, THIS MESSAGE IS ALSO USED TO ALERT THE USER THAT THE TYPE '01', '02', OR '06' ENTRY IS FLAGGED FOR BOTH NAFTA AND OTHER RECONCILIATION, BUT THE RECONCILIATION HAS NOT YET BEEN FILED. THIS MESSAGE IS OVERRIDEABLE AT LIQUIDATION.

THE CARRIER CODE IN THE H1 REC, POS 61-64 (HI APPLICATION) IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH THE MODE OF TRANSPORTATION IN THE DISTRICT-PORT FILE FOR THE PORT OF UNLADING IN THE H1 REC, POS 65-68. THE ACCEPTABLE MODES OF TRANSPORTATION FOR A GIVEN PORT CODE CAN BE FOUND ON THE DISTRICT-PORT DATABASE. PORTS WHICH ACCEPT EITHER OCEAN OR AIR SHIPMENTS WILL HAVE A "B" IN THE "CARRIER TYPE" FIELD. "V" INDICATES A VESSEL PORT ONLY AND AN "A" INDICATES AN AIRPORT ONLY PORT. IF THE CARRIER CODE REPORTED IS AN AIR CARRIER, THE PORT OF UNLADING CODE MUST BE CODED "A" OR "B". SIMILARLY, IF THE CARRIER CODE REPORTED IS FOR OCEAN, THEN THE PORT OF UNLADING MUST BE CODED "V" OR "B".

EJQ:	ENTRY ALREADY HAS ABI STATEMENT

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN AUTOMATED INVOICE TRANSMISSION (APPLICATION CI). IF ANY ENTRY ASSOCIATED WITH THE INVOICE IN THE INSTANT TRANSMISSION HAS ALREADY APPEARED ON A PRELIMINARY STATEMENT, CHANGES TO THE INVOICE ARE NOT PERMITTED.

THE BEGINNING OF THE FILING & AMENDMENT PERIOD FOR A PROTEST, CLAIM OR INTERVENTION CAN BE DETERMINED IN ANY OF SEVERAL WAYS. WHEN PROTESTING DENIAL OF A 520(C) OR 520(D) CLAIM IT IS THE DATE OF DENIAL. INTERVENTIONS MAY BE FILED ANY TIME BEGINNING WITH FILING OF ADVERSE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN MARKING DECISION ENDING WITH USCS DECISION. FOR PROTESTS OR CLAIMS RELATED TO ENTRIES, LIQUIDATION DATE CONSTITUTES THE START OF THE PERIOD.
