ABI Error Message

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.)

G9C:	REMOTE ENTRY/ENTRY TYPE CONFLICT

IF THE B RECORD REMOTE ENTRY INDICATOR IS A '1',THE ENTRY TYPE CODE MUST BE EITHER 01 OR 11.

AQQ:	BASE DATE QUALIFIER INVALID

WHEN A FILING/AMENDMENT PERIOD BASE DATE IS SUBMITTED, FILER MUST DECLARE THE LIFECYCLE EVENT ASSOCIATED TO THE DATE. VALID VALUES ARE: 1 - DATE OF NOTIFICATION OF CUSTOMS DECISION ADVERSE TO PROTESTANT 2 - DATE OF NOTIFICAITON OF ADVERSE COUNTRY MARKING DECISION UNDER NAFTA 3 - DATE OF EXACTION 4 - DATE OF NOTIFICATION OF DEMAND FOR PAYMENT AGAINST A BOND IN THE CASE OF A SURETY

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.

AQU:	AFR QUESTIONS RESPONSE N/A

WHEN APPLYING FOR FURTHER REVIEW, THE FILER MUST ANSWER 3 FURTHER REVIEW CRITERIA QUESTIONS. EITHER FURTHER REVIEW HAS NOT BEEN REQUESTED, OR THEY HAVE ALREADY BEEN ANSWERED IN A PREVIOUS TRANSMISSION, MAKING THESE NOT APPLICABLE.

VEM:	FC 740:QTY EXCEEDS 03 ALLOWANCE

THE QUANTITY FOR AN 03 IMPORT CONDITION NUMBER CANNOT EXCEED 200 UNITS WITHOUT PRIOR APPROVAL. IF QUANTITY EXCEEDS 200, REPORT PRIOR APPROVAL BY SENDING A "Y" IN POSITION 7 OF THE FC01 RECORD, DATA ELEMENT "03 IMPORT CONDITION NUMBER QUANTITY APPROVAL".

AAM:	MFR/SHIPPER ID INVALID ISO PREFX

THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT IF A SHIPMENT IDENTIFIES A MANUFACTURER IDENTIFICATION NUMBER (MID) INVOLVING A CANADIAN SHIPPER. VALID ISO PREFIXES FOR THESE SHIPMENTS ARE: XN (WHERE N= ONE OF THE 10 ALLOWABLE ALPHA CHARACTERS FOR THE 10 CANADIAN PROVINCES). IF THE SHIPMENT IN QUESTION DOES NOT INVOLVE CANADIAN GOODS, THE ISO COUNTRY PREFIX CODE MUST BE A VALID TWO-CHARACTER PREFIX FROM THE DATABASE. ERRORS IN THE CODE FOR NON-CANADIAN SHIPMENTS WILL GENERATE ERROR MESSAGE 0M9.

VAU:	ULT CONSIGNEE IN ENTRY HEADER

WHEN AN ULTIMATE CONSIGNEE NUMBER IS TRANSMITTED IN THE HI APPLICATION, REC H2, POS 11-22 (INDICATING ONE ULTIMATE CONSIGNEE FOR THE SHIPMENT), POS 33-44 IN REC H5 MUST BE SPACE FILLED.

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.

ASF:	DUPLICATE ENTRY NUMBER

AN ENTRY CAN BE CITED ON A PROTEST, PETITION, OR INTERVENTION ONLY ONE TIME WHEN AN ENTRY IS CITED MORE THAN ONE TIME, THIS MESSAGE IS DISPLAYED.

VGX:	INVALID FORMAT

THIS ERROR MESSAGE OCCURS IN THE FDA INTERFACE WHEN A FILER ATTEMPTS TO SEND A QUERY OR AN ADD REQUEST FOR AN FDA ESTABLISHMENT NUMBER (FEI) IN THE PP TRANSACTION AND THE FORMAT OF THEIR QUERY IS INCORRECT. THIS CAN TAKE MANY FORMS BUT USUALLY INVOLVES TRYING TO FIT A FOREIGN ADDRESS INTO FIELDS THAT ONLY ACCEPT A US ADDRESS. IN MOST CASES, IT INVOLVES A PROGRAMMING PROBLEM IN THE FILERS SOFTWARE. PROPER FORMAT FOR THE PP TRANSACTION IS SHOWN ON PAGES OGQ 14-20 OF THE CATAIR.

ACP:	IMPORTER NUMBER IS INACTIVE

THIS MESSAGE CAN OCCUR AS A RESPONSE TO CARGO DATA INPUT TRANSACTION OR ENTRY SUMMARY TRANSACTION OR AS A RESPONSE TO A QUERY OF AN IMPORTER/BOND TRANSACTION (CATAIR, PAGE QIB-7). AN IMPORTER IS PUT INTO "INACTIVE" STATUS WHEN THERE HAVE BEEN NO CARGO SELECTIVITY, ENTRY SUMMARY OR ELECTRONIC INVOICE TRANSACTIONS DURING THE PRECEDING 18 MONTHS. TO REACTIVATE, FILER MUST SEND IN AN "ADD CF-5106" TRANSACTION WITH THE IMPORTER'S FULL NAME AND ADDRESS INFORMATION. IF THE IMPORTER NUMBER IS A CUSTOMS ASSIGNED NUMBER, FILER MUST TURN IN A CF 5106 TO CUSTOMS FOR REACTIVATION.  NOTE - THIS MESSAGE MAY NO LONGER BE GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO HI, CARGO RELEASE, INPUT TRANSACTIONS. SEE ERROR 66A.

4NF:	NAME/ADDRESS RECORD NOT FOUND

THIS ERROR MESSAGE OCCURS IN THE 'KN' IMPORTER ADDRESS QUERY WHEN A FILER SENDS A NAME AND ADDRESS THAT IS NOT IN THE IMPORTER FILE. A COMMON MISTAKE IS A MISSPELLING OF THE CITY NAME (E.G. LAS VEGASAS).

79N:	TARIFF NBR NOT ACTIVE FOR IT DTE

THE DATE THAT AN INTRANSIT ENTRY IS CREATED (OPENED) ESTABLISHES A DATE WHICH IS USED TO DETERMINE THE VALIDITY OF A GIVEN TARIFF NUMBER. IF THE ABI FILER TRANSMITS A TARIFF NUMBER THAT IS NOT VALID AS OF THE 'INBOND' DATE, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT. IF THE TARIFF NUMBER BEING REJECTED IS AN 8 DIGIT TARIFF NUMBER (FROM CHAPTER 99, USUALLY), AND THE FILER TRANSMITS 10 - DIGITS, THIS ERROR WILL ALSO RESULT.

05D:	INDICATE PAIRED CITIES WITH 'X'

A CHARACTER WAS ENTERED IN THE PAIRED CITIES INDICATOR BUT IT WAS NOT AN 'X'. X' IS THE ONLY VALID CHARACTER FOR INDICATING PAIRED CITIES. IF THIS IS NOT A PAIRED CITIES ENTRY, THE PAIRED INDICATOR SHOULD REMAIN A SPACE.

VNH:	FD 701: BASE UNIT MUST BE LAST

IN THE FDA INTERFACE, UP TO SIX QUANTITIES AND UNITS OF MEASURE (UOM) CAN BE TRANSMITTED. FIVE QUANTITIES/UOM CAN BE SENT IN REC FD02, POS 5-18, 19-32, 33-46, 47-60 AND 61-74 (CATAIR, PAGE OGA-30). THE SIXTH, IF APPLICABLE, IS SENT IN REC FD04, POS 5-18 (CATAIR, PAGE OGA-35). IF QUANTITIES/UOM'S ARE SENT THEN AT LEAST ONE OF THEM MUST BE A "BASE UNIT" AND IF MORE THAN ONE IS SENT THE BASE UNIT MUST BE IN THE LAST POSITION. IF, FOR EXAMPLE, THREE QUANTITIES/UOM'S ARE SENT THE BASE QUANTITY MUST BE IN THE "UNIT 3 QUANTITY AND MEASURE BLOCK (REC FD01, POS 33-46). IF ONLY ONE QUANTITY/UOM IS SENT IT MUST BE A BASE UNIT AND SENT IN THE UNIT 1 QUANTITY AND MEASURE BLOCK (REC FD01, POS 1-18). FDA BASE UNITS ARE SHOWN IN THE CATAIR, PAGES OGA-31.

834:	ADD INVALID - BROKER REF MISMATCH

IF AN ENTRY SUMMARY RECORD EXISTS AND AN ADD TRANSACTION IS SUBMITTED VIA BATCH ABI INPUT, THE BROKER REFERENCE NUMBER IN THE EXISTING RECORD MUST MATCH THE BROKER REFERENCE NUMBER IN THE '20' RECORD OF THE BATCH ADD TRANSACTION. FILERS MAY CHANGE THEIR FILER REFERENCE NUMBER IF THEY USE ACTION CODE OF "R" (REPLACE) OR "C" (CHANGE) IN LIEU OF "A" (ADD). THIS MESSAGE WILL ALSO RESULT IF THE CARGO DATA INPUT APPLICATION (HI) OR THE BORDER CARGO RELEASE APPLICATION (HN) IS USED AND THE "A" ACTION CODE IS TRANSMITTED WITH A DIFFERENT BROKER REFERENCE NUMBER THAN WAS USED ON THE INITIAL INPUT.

AQ8:	PROTESTANT ADDRESS REQUIRED

WHEN THE PROTESTANT TYPE IS EITHER 'F' (FOREIGN EXPORTER/PRODUCER) OR 'O' (OTHER), FULL NAME AND ADDRESS INFORMATION IS REQUIRED, INCLUDING COUNTRY CODE 'US' FOR DOMESTIC ADDRESSES (USED WHEN THE PROTESTANT TYPE IS 'O') AND EITHER 'MX' OR 'CA' FOR MEXICAN AND CANADIAN ADDRESSES (USED WHEN THE PROTESTANT TYPE IS 'F'.

EI0:	INVOICE LINE CAN'T BE ZERO

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN AUTOMATED INVOICE TRANSMISSION (APPLICATION CI). EACH ITEM ON AN INVOICE IS DESCRIBED IN THE C31 THROUGH C39 RECORDS. THE C31 RECORD CONTAINS A COUNTER CALLED THE INVOICE LINE NUMBER IN POS 4-7. THE FIRST SUCH RECORD TRANSMITTED ON AN INVOICE INPUT WOULD BE "001", ETC. "000" IS NOT A VALID INVOICE LINE NUMBER AND WILL GENERATE THIS ERROR MESSAGE IF USED.

DK7:	TOT TARIFF TRAILER COUNT INVALID

THIS MESSAGE OCCURS IN THE AUTOMATED DRAWBACK MODULE. THE SUM OF THE ABI'D12', 'D20', 'D25', 'D30', 'D40', OR 'D50' RECORDS DOES NOT ADD UP TO WHAT THE COUNT IS IN THE 'CT CLAIM TRAILER' RECORD, OR ABI 'D90' RECORD. BECAUSE IT DOES NOT ADD UP, WE CANNOT KNOW WHETHER THE TOTAL COUNT IS SIMPLY WRONG, OR THE TOTAL COUNT IS RIGHT AND WE ARE MISSING RECORDS.

VHZ:	DT HS7: V ELIGIBILITY NBR REQ'D

IF BOX 03 IS TRANSMITTED IN THE DT01 REC, POS 8-9, A VEHICLE ELIGIBILITY NUMBER MUST BE TRANSMITTED IN POS 64-69 OF THE DT01 RECORD.

VK4:	HLS: CONST. VALUE FORMAT INVALID

A DISPLAY CONSTANT VALUED MUST BE EXPRESSED AS A 'VALUE' EMBEDDED QUOTES ARE SUPPORTED.

VBQ:	FW 3-177: NO MID NAME/ADDRESS

IF A SUMMARY IS TRANSMITTED WITH FISH AND WILDLIFE DATA AND THE MANUFACTURER ID IN THE FW03 RECORD IS LISTED ON THE MID FILE IN "PENDING" STATUS, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT. THAT FILE IS NOT CURRENTLY BEING EXPANDED WHEN FILERS TRANSMIT MID'S WITHOUT CORRESPONDING NAME AND ADDRESS DATA, SO THIS ERROR MESSAGE SHOULD NOT OCCUR OFTEN, IF AT ALL.

VGP:	FD 701: VALUE MUST BE > 0

THE FDA VALUE IN REC FD03, POS 5-15, MUST BE MORE THAN ZERO. BLANKS ARE PERMITTED.

VMA:	HLO: SORT PARAMETER MUST BE A/U
