ABI Error Message

1GK:	MAIL FEE AMOUNT INVALID

FOR ENTRIES USING MODE OF TRANSPORTATION 50 (MAIL IMPORTATION), IF ANY DUTY IS DUE ON THE ENTRY, A DUTIABLE MAIL FEE OF $5.00 MUST BE TRANSMITTED IN THE 34 RECORD. ANY OTHER AMOUNT THAN $5.00 WILL GENERATE THIS ERROR MESSAGE.

VN4:	D41 RECORD MUST CONTAIN DATA

THIS ERROR MESSAGE COULD BE THE RESULT OF A DRAWBACK OR ABI DRAWBACK PROBLEM. IT IS SAYING THEN 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 DRAWBACK DISKETTE HAS NO DATA, THE PC PROGRAM SHOULD STOP IT BEFORE TRANSMISSION; HOWEVER, THERE MAY HAVE BEEN DATA THERE, BUT IT WAS BAD DATA.

VBH:	FW 3-177: INVLD US IMPORT PERMIT#

IF THE PERMIT # IS TRANSMITTED IN REC FW02, POS 53-60, IT MUST HAVE A MINIMUM OF SIX CHARACTERS AND NO MORE THAN 8 CHARACTERS. (NOTE: THIS PERMIT IS ISSUED BY THE FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE HEADQUARTERS OFFICE FOR THE IMPORTATION OF THREATENED OR ENDANGERED SPECIES FOR WHICH COMMERCIAL TRADE IS PROHIBITED.)

AFA:	ELEC INVOICE INDICATOR INVALID

THE ELECTRONIC INVOICE INDICATOR IS SENT IN POSITION 56 OF THE EI 10 RECORD. IT INDICATES THAT THE ENTRY IS PART OF THE AII PROGRAM. THE ONLY INDICATOR ALLOWED IS 'E' IF THE ENTRY IS BEING TRANSMITTED AS AN AII ENTRY, OTHERWISE SPACE FILL.

322:	INVALID BROKER MODE

MUST BE NUMERIC; 0,1,2, OR 3.

AJA:	NEW NBR NOT ASSIGNED, IMP ON FILE

FILER TRIED TO ADD AN IMPORTER NAME AND ADDRESS (APPLICATION 'TI') AND REQUESTED A CUSTOMS-ASSIGNED NUMBER; THIS NAME AND ADDRESS ARE ALREADY LISTED IN THE 5106 FILE. FILER SHOULD USE APPLICATION 'KN' TO GET THE IMPORTER'S NUMBER. IF THE IMPORTER"S NUMBER IS: FILER WIILL RECEIVE: IRS # ENCRYPTED NUMBER SSN ENCRYPTED NUMBER USCS-ASSIGNED #, OLD OR NEW FORMAT USCS-ASSIGNED NUMBER

69A:	ORIGIN COUNTRY/TARIFF NBR INVALID

THIS ERROR MESSAGE RESULTS WHEN A REQUIREMENT BETWEEN THE TARIFF NUMBER REPORTED IN THE 50 REC, POS 4-13, AND THE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN REPORTED IN THE 40 REC, POS 6-7, IS VIOLATED. THE MOST COMMON EXAMPLE OF THIS WOULD BE THE USE OF ANY COUNTRY OTHER THAN "US" WITH TARIFF NUMBERS IN THE 98010010NN RANGE. ALSO, CHAPTER 9999 NUMBERS MAY BE SPECIFICALLY LINKED TO EITHER CANADA OR MEXICO. IF THE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN IS NOT APPROPRIATE TO THE TARIFF NUMBER IN CHAPTER 99, THIS MESSAGE WILL ALSO RESULT. A LESS COMMON EXAMPLE WOULD THE ATTEMPTED USE OF CERTIFIED HAND-LOOM TEXTILE ARTICLES (AS FOLKLORE ARTICLES) WITH A COUNTRY OF ORIGIN THAT IS NOT ONE OF THE ACCEPTABLE COUNTRIES FOR CERTIFIED FOLKLORE ARTICLES. PAGE ENS-48 OF THE CATAIR LISTS THE CURRENTLY ACCEPTABLE COUNTRIES OF ORIGIN FOR SELECTED TARIFF NUMBERS (NOTE 2).

BRY:	POSSIBLE DUTY MISMATCH

R20 ORIGINAL DUTY DOES NOT MATCH PAID / LIQ DUTY THIS MESSAGE IS RETURNED IF THE R20 REC, POS 23-33, AMOUNT DOES NOT EXACTLY AGREE WITH THE PAID DUTY ON THE ENAI RECORD FOR THE IMPORT ENTRY LISTED IN THE R20 RECORD, POS 8-18.THERE CAN BE SEVERAL CAUSES FOR THIS ERROR, BUT THE MOST COMMON ONE IS THAT THE FILER WILL SEND ALL ZEROS IN THE R20 FOR AN IMPORT ENTRY THAT HAD DUTY PAID. ANOTHER POSSIBLE REASON IS WHEN TWO OR MORE COLLECTIONS WERE DEPOSITED ON THE SAME IMPORT ENTRY AND THE FILER HAS NOT KEPT ACCURATE RECORDS REFLECTING THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF DUTY PAID.

VHY:	DT HS7: NHTSA RI NOT EFF FOR EDA

THE REGISTERED IMPORTER FILE LISTS ALL VALID REGISTERED IMPORTERS BY A SPECIFICALLY ASSIGNED NUMBER (RI NUMBER). EACH NUMBER ALSO HAS AN EFFECTIVE DATE, USUAL FOR ONE YEAR AT A TIME. IF THE RI NUMBER IS NOT IN EFFECT ON THE ESTIMATED DATE OF ARRIVAL AS TRANSMITTED BY THE FILER IN THE HI OR EI RECORDS, THIS MESSAGE WILL RESULT.

VBP:	FW 3-177: MID NOT ON FILE

THE FISH AND WILDLIFE SHIPPER ID IS A CONDITIONAL FIELD (REC FW03, POS 28-42) AND SHOULD BE TRANSMITTED ONLY IF THE FWS SHIPPER ID IS DIFFERENT THAN THE MID USED FOR CUSTOMS PURPOSES. IF THE FISH AND WILDLIFE SHIPPER ID IS NOT RESIDENT IN THE MID FILE, THIS ERROR MESSAGE RESULTS. THE FILER SHOULD USE THE MID UPDATE APPLICATION TO ADD THE FISH AND WILDLIFE SHIPPER ID TO THE MID FILE.

RBA:	SUMMARY FEE TRAILER # OUT OF SEQ

FOR RECONCILIATION, THIS MESSAGE MEANS THAT THE 'R89' SUMMARY FEE TRAILER IS OUT OF SEQUENCE IN THE RECORD LAYOUT. THERE CAN BE UP TO 10 'R89' RECORDS WHICH ARE SEQUENCED AS 01-10. THEY MUST BE SEQUENCED IN ORDER AND COME RIGHT BEFORE THE 'R90' SUMMARY RECORD.

ASJ:	PROTESTED ISSUE NOT APPLICABLE

THE P70 CANNOT BE REPEATED OR TRANSMITTED AS PART OF AN AMENDMENT, ADDENDA, SERVICE REQUEST.

G9B:	REMOTE ENTRY/BOND TYPE CONFLICT

IF THE B RECORD REMOTE ENTRY INDICATOR IS A '1', THE BOND TYPE CODE IN THE ENTRY DATA MUST BE 8.

176:	INVALID FILER CODE

THE THREE CHARACTER FILER CODE MUST BE ALPHA-NUMERIC. NO SPECIAL CHARACTERS AND MUST NOT BE LEFT BLANK.  FILER MUST BE INCLUDED IN THE APPROPRIATE ACS FILE AS A NATIONAL FILER, AND IN THE DISTRICT FILE AS ALLOWED TO FILE ENTRIES IN YOUR DISTRICT. ( ENTRIES FILED AFTER OCTOBER 1, 1986).

APW:	FAX INDICATOR INVALID

NOTIFICATION TO CUSTOMS THAT A FACSIMILE WAS SENT, INDICATED BY 'S', MAY BE SUBMITTED BY FILER AT INITIAL FILING OF PROTEST, CLAIM OR INTERVENTION. 'N' INDICATES THAT NO FACSIMILE WAS SENT. THE VALUE SUBMITTED IN THE FAX INDICATOR IS NOT 'S' OR 'N'.

40J:	SPI CLAIM INVALID FOR TARIFF

MOST TARIFF NUMBERS ARE ELIGIBLE FOR ONE OR MORE SPECIAL PROGRAMS THAT REDUCE OR ELIMINATE THE DUTY REQUIRED. THESE ARE CODED AS "SPI" FOR THOSE PROGRAMS THAT THE INDIVIDUAL TARIFF NUMBER HAS BEEN FLAGGED FOR. IF AN ABI FILERS TRANSMITS AN SPI (SUMMARY TRANSACTION 50 REC, POS 3, OR POS 78-79; 70/80/81 REC, POS 13 OR POS 79-80) THAT IS NOT LISTED ON THE TARIFF FILE FOR THAT TARIFF NUMBER, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT. FILERS SHOULD VERIFY THE SPI FROM THEIR HARMONIZED QUERY OUTPUT (V3 REC, POS 53-72) TO ASCERTAIN THAT THE SELECTED SPI APPLIES TO THE TARIFF NUMBER. NOTE: AS STATED IN ERROR MESSAGE 40L, IF THE TRANSMITTED SPI (50 RECORD OR 70 RECORD) IS ON THE TARIFF FILE FOR THE TARIFF NUMBER, IT MUST NONETHELESS AGREE WITH THE C/O CODE (EITHER "MX" OR "CA"). IF THE C/O IS "CA", AN SPI OF "MX" WILL GENERATE THIS ERROR MESSAGE.

4KP:	VISA REQUIRES QUOTA ENTRY TYPE

A STANDARDIZED VISA REQUIRES A QUOTA ENTRY TYPE.

79S:	MID NOT ON FILE-LINE ITEM >?<

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN ENTRY SUMMARY INPUT TRANSACTION (APPLICATION EI). IF ONE OR MORE CUSTOMS LINES (40 RECORD) HAVE AN ASSOCIATED MID (60 REC, POS 43-57) THAT IS NOT REFLECTED ON THE SELECTIVITY FILE, THAT LINE(S) WILL BE IDENTIFIED IN THIS OUTPUT MESSAGE. THIS IS NOT A REJECT CONDITION BUT WILL PRECLUDE A PAPERLESS CARGO RELEASE FOR THE ENTRY.

02J:	PC: NONNUMERIC EST ARRIVAL DATE

ESTIMATED ARRIVAL DATE ENTERED IS NON-NUMERIC. THIS ENTRY HAS BEEN FLAGGED AS A PAIRED CITIES ENTRY. A VALID ESTIMATED ARRIVAL DATE IS REQUIRED.

822:	ULT CONSIGNEE NUMBER VOIDED

THIS MESSAGE RESULTS WHEN THE NUMBER CITED IN THE 10 REC, POS 20-30 HAS BEEN FLAGGED AS "VOID" IN THE IMPORTER DATABASE. THE NATIONAL FINANCE CENTER USUALLY VOIDS ULTIMATE CONSIGNEE  NUMBERS. THE MOST COMMON REASON FOR A NUMBER TO BE VOIDED IS THAT IT IS A DUPLICATE FOR THE SAME IMPORTER OR CONSIGNEE. WHEN LOCAL PORTS DISCOVER SUCH DUPLICATIONS, THEY CAN CONTACT THE NFC TO HAVE ONE OF THE NUMBERS VOIDED. ONLY THE NFC CAN REACTIVATE A VOIDED CONSIGNEE NUMBER. THIS MESSAGE ALSO APPLIES TO THE HI (CARGO RELEASE) AND CI (AUTOMATED INVOICE) APPLICATIONS.

823:	SURETY IS CANCELLED

THE SURETY CODE SENT IS FOR A SURETY THAT HAS BEEN CANCELLED AND OUT OF THE BUSINESS OF BONDING.

B24:	LOWER CASE LETTERS FIRM/ADDR/CITY

FIRM NAME FIELD, ADDRESS FIELD, OR CITY NAME FIELD CONTAINS LOWER CASE ETTERS. IN ABI TRANSACTIONS, FILERS SHOULD ALWAYS SUBMIT UPPER CASE ALPHA CHARACTERS. IF THEIR SYSTEM SENDS LOWER CASE LETTERS IN EITHER THE FIRM NAME OR CITY FIELDS, THIS MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED.

EJY:	UNIT OF MEASURE REQUIRED

IF THE FILER SENDS A QUANTITY IN THE SUMMARY INPUT (EI APPLICATION, REC 22, POS 51-58) AND DOES NOT ALSO INCLUDE A UNIT OF MEASURE (REC 22, POS 51-58) THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED. THE SAME LOGIC APPLIES TO THE CARGO RELEASE INPUT (HI APPLICATION, REC HA, POS 51-58 FOR THE UNIT OF MEASURE). IN THE AUTOMATED INVOICE TRANSACTION (APPLICATION CI), THIS ERROR MESSAGE IS SOMEWHAT MISLEADING. IF THE C34 RECORD IS TRANSMITTED, THE FIRST QUANTITY FIELD, POS 4-18, MUST BE GREATER THAN ZERO. THE FIRST UNIT OF MEASURE IN POS 19-21 IS OPTIONAL. IF THE SECOND UNIT OF MEASURE, POS 37-39, IS TRANSMITTED WITHOUT A SECOND QUANTITY IN POS 22-26, THIS ERROR MESSAGE IS GENERATED. A BETTER MESSAGE WOULD BE "UOM NOT ALLOWED WITH QUANTITY."

VBA:	BRANCH CODE INVALID W/O STMT IND

REMOVE BRANCH CODE FOR 20REC WHEN PAYMENT INDICATOR IS NOT EQUAL TO 2, 3 OR 5 IN ADDITION, A VALID PAY DATE MUST BE TRANSMITTED IN THE 30 REC, POS 54-59, WHENEVER A PAYMENT TYPE INDICATOR IS TRANSMITTED IN POS 53. IF THE PAYMENT TYPE INDICATOR IS PRESENT, BUT THE PAYMENT DUE DATE IS BLANK OR ZEROES, AND A BRANCH CODE IS TRANSMITTED IN THE 20 REC, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT.

89O:	MPF REQUIRED
