ABI Error Message

383:	COUNTRY OF EXPORT INVALID

THIS MESSAGE WILL RESULT IF THE ABI FILER TRANSMITS AN ENTRY SUMMARY OR CARGO RELEASE TRANSACTION WITH A TWO-CHARACTER COUNTRY CODE (ISO CODE) THAT DOES NOT APPEAR ON THE COUNTRY CODE DATABASE. FOR SHIPMENTS FROM CANADA, THE TWO-CHARACTER CODE IS CA, NOT THE PROVINCE-OF-ORIGIN CODE (X-) THAT MUST BE USED FOR COUNTRY OF ORIGIN REPORTING. ALSO, IF "US" IS TRANSMITTED AS THE COUNTRY OF EXPORT, THAT WILL GENERATE THIS ERROR MESSAGE.

662:	IMPORTER NUMBER IS 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 PERFORMS VOIDS OF IMPORTER 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 IMPORTER NUMBER. THIS MESSAGE WILL ALSO APPLY TO THE AUTOMATED INVOICE INTERFACE APPLICATION (CODE CI) FOR THE PARTIES REPORTED IN THE C08 AND C58 RECORDS. IT ALSO APPLIES TO THE DRAWBACK AND RECONCILIATION TRANSACTIONS.

17L:	APPLICATION NOT AVAILABLE

THE APPLICATION CONTROL RECORD IN THE APPLICATION CONTROL FILE IS SET TO "OFF". ACTION: RESTART THE APPLICATION AFTER THE ENABLE SWITCH IN THE FILE IS SET TO "ON" OR THE CORRECT APPLICATION CODE IS SELECTED.

DKD:	D12 RECORD MUST CONTAIN DATA

THIS ERROR MESSAGE COULD BE THE RESULT OF A DRAWBACK DISKETTE OR ABI DRAWBACK PROBLEM. IT IS SAYING THAT WHEN CUSTOMS FORMATTED THE RECORDS FROM THE DRAWBACK 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.

EJC:	INVALID DIFFERENCE REASON CODE

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN AUTOMATED INVOICE TRANSMISSION (APPLICATION CI). THE C39 RECORD, POS 22-23, PROVIDES FOR THE INSERTION OF ONE OF 24 VALID TWO-CHARACTER "REASON FOR DIFFERENCE CODES". THE USE OF ANY OTHER CODE, OR A BLANK FIELD, WILL GENERATE THIS ERROR MESSAGE.

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.

4BA:	REL PROCESSING NOT TEST/OPER

THIS MESSAGE IS USUALLY FOUND WHEN FILERS ARE FIRST TESTING ABI. NORMAL PROCEDURES ARE TO TEST ENTRY SUMMARY INPUT FIRST. DURING SUMMARY TESTING, FILERS MAY NOT SIMULTANEOUSLY BE SET UP FOR CARGO RELEASE TESTING. IF THE FILER TRANSMITS A CARGO RELEASE INPUT WHILE IN SUMMARY TEST STATUS, THIS MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED. THIS MESSAGE WILL ALSO OCCUR WHEN THE PORT (AND FILER) ARE NOT SET UP FOR BORDER CARGO SELECTIVITY BUT THE FILER IS OPERATIONAL FOR ENTRY SUMMARY AND REGULARY CARGO SELECTIVITY.

2LC:	BOND NOT FILED IN YOUR DISTRICT

A DISTRICT BOND IS ON FILE FOR THIS IMPORTER, BUT THE BOND DOES NOT COVER YOUR DISTRICT.

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.

AQ7:	SAMPLE INDICATOR REQUIRED

THIS DATA FIELD IS MANDATORY FOR THE PJ INITIAL FILING TRANSACTION. THE ACCEPTABLE INDICATORS ARE 'N' (NO SAMPLE) AND 'S' (SAMPLE SENT). THIS DATA FIELD IS CONDITIONAL FOR ANY SUBSEQUENT QJ AMENDMENT OR RJ ADDENDA TRANSACTION. IN A QJ OR RJ THE PROTEST RECORD CAN BE UPDATED TO CHANGE NO SAMPLE TO SAMPLE SENT BY TRANSMITTING 'S'. IF THE PJ OR PREVIOUS QJ OR RJ WAS TRANSMITTED TO UPDATE TO SAMPLE SENT, A SUBSEQUENT QJ OR RJ CANNOT BE USED TO CHANGE THE SAMPLE SENT BACK TO NO SAMPLE. INSTEAD THE FILER MUST CONTACT THE PROTEST PROCESSING TEAM AT THE PORT WHERE THE PROTEST WAS FILED AND REQUEST CUSTOMS MANUALLY UPDATE THE RECORD.

962:	TAX MAY NOT BE DEFERRED

THIS ERROR MESSAGE HAS BEEN FOUND TO OCCUR WHEN A TAX DEFERRED INDICATOR IS SENT FOR AN INFORMAL ENTRY (ENTRY TYPE 11). WHEN THE ENTRY TYPE IS CHANGED TO A FORMAL ENTRY TYPE THE ENTRY PROCESSES ERROR FREE.

VAM:	FILER MUST PAY BY ACH FOR QTA ENT

IF THE FILER OF THE ENTRY IS NOT ACH OPERATIONAL AS OF THE DATE AND TIME OF THE TRANSMISSION OF THE ENTRY SUMMARY, ENTRY TYPE 02 CANNOT BE TRANSMITTED WITH A PAYMENT TYPE AND PAYMENT DUE DATE IN THE 30 REC (POS 53-59). THE ACH STATUS OF THE FILER WILL BE VERIFIED FROM THE FILER PROFILE RECORD IF THE FILER SENDS A LIVE ENTRY INDICATOR OF "1" IN POS 44 OF THE 10 RECORD. FURTHER, THE PRESENCE OF THE LIVE ENTRY INDICATOR WILL TRIGGER A SEARCH OF THE ACH UNIT PAYOR CROSS-REFERENCE FILE TO VERIFY THAT THE FILER, OR IMPORTER, HAS A VALID PAYER UNIT NUMBER RECORD. IF ANY OF THE HEADER DATA IS MISSING, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT.

39B:	INVALID DUTY FREE CLAIM

THIS MESSAGE WILL OCCUR IF THE FILER ATTEMPTS TO MAKE A DUTY-FREE CLAIM THAT IS NOT APPROPRIATE TO THE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN/COUNTRY OF EXPORT COMBINATION. FOR EXAMPLE, INSULAR POSSESSIONS (SPI "Y") ARE ENTITLED TO SHIP CARGO DUTY FREE TO THE UNITED STATES, BUT ONLY IF THE SHIPMENT COMES DIRECTLY FROM THE POSSESSION. THEREFORE, IF THE COUNTRY OF EXPORT (50 REC, POS 69-70) IS NOT IDENTICAL TO THE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN (40 REC, POS 6-7), AND THE FILER TRANSMITS "Y" IN POS 3 OF THE 50 RECORD, THIS ERROR WILL RESULT. THIS MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED IF SPI "Y" IS USED FOR AMERICAN GOODS RETURNED PRODUCTS (CHAPT 98010010NN), AS THESE ARTICLES ARE UNCONDITIONALLY FREE OF DUTY AND THEREFORE DO NOT REQUIRE A SPECIAL PROGRAM IN ORDER TO CLAIM DUTY-FREE STATUS.

EI1:	ARTICLE A NEEDED FOR ARTICLE B

POS 8-42 ARE USED TO PROVIDE AN IDENTIFICATION NUMBER FOR THE ITEM ON THE INVOICE LINE (PART NUMBER, CATALOG NUMBER, ETC). A FURTHER DEFINITION (BUYER'S PART NUMBER, ETC) IS PERMITTED IN POS 43-77. THESE TWO FIELDS ARE IDENTIFED AS "ITEM A" AND "ITEM B". IF DATA APPEARS IN THE "ITEM B" FIELD, DATA MUST ALSO APPEAR IN THE "ITEM A" FIELD. IF NOT, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATE.

VPD:	WHSE PROCESS TYPE INVALID

VDO:	-->ENTRY SUMMARY LINE *--*

THIS MESSAGE IS ALWAYS ACCOMPANIED BY ANOTHER MESSAGE THAT INDICATES WHY THE CARGO CERTIFICATION WAS UNABLE TO BE PROCESSED. THE "*--*" IN THE MESSAGE TITLE WILL BE REPLACED WITH "LINE NNNN" IN THE ACTUAL SUMMARY OUTPUT MESSAGE. THE MOST COMMON SITUATIONS THAT WILL GENERATE THIS MESSAGE ARE THOSE ENTRIES INVOLVING OTHER GOVERNMENT AGENCY REGULATED TARIFF NUMBERS, SUCH AS FWS OR FDA. THIS MESSAGE WILL ALERT THE FILER TO WHICH ENTRY SUMMARY LINE NEEDS THE OGA DATA. THIS MESSAGE WILL ALSO BE GENERATED IF ONE OR MORE SUMMARY LINES HAVE AN MID THAT DOES NOT HAVE A COMPLETE NAME AND ADDRESS ON FILE IN THE MID DATABASE.

VDU:	FTZ PRIV STATUS FILING DT INVALID
