ABI Error Message

AB9:	INVALID ACTIVITY CODE

THIS MESSAGE OCCURS WHEN THE DRAWBACK CLAIMANT'S BOND IS VALID, BUT IS FOR AN ACTIVITY CODE OTHER THAN 1A (DRAWBACK). OLD CODE 1A1 BONDS ARE NO LONGER ACCEPTABLE FOR DRAWBACK.

VQM:	MISSING IMPORT REFERENCE

THIS ERROR MESSAGE OCUURS IN THE NAFTA DUTY DEFERRAL MODULE. IF THE CLAIM TYPE INDICATOR IN THE D01 RECORD, POSITION 4 IS A '1' OR '3' AND IF SPACES ARE SENT IN THE IMPORT ENTRY NUMBER FIELD IN THE D10 RECORD, POSITIONS 20-27, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT.

EIV:	UNIT, PERCENT, OR QUANTITY REQ

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN AUTOMATED INVOICE TRANSMISSION (APPLICATION CI). IF AN ALLOWANCE OR CHARGE (DUTIABLE OR NONDUTIABLE) IS INDICATED BY THE PRESENCE OF ONE OF THE SIX VALID INDICATORS IN THE C17 REC, POS 4, THE FILER MUST SPECIFY THE CONDITIONS UNDER WHICH THE ALLOWANCE OR CHARGE IS MADE. THE C17 RECORD MUST, THEREFORE, HAVE ONE, AND ONLY ONE OF THE FOLLOWING COMBINATION OF FIELDS PRESENT: 1) RATE/UNIT + UNIT PRICE BASIS + UNIT OF MEASURE OR 2) ALLOWANCE/CHARGE PERCENT OR 3) UNIT OF MEASURE + ALLOWANCE/CHARGE QUANTITY. IF ONE OF THE ABOVE COMBINATION OF ELEMENTS IS NOT TRANSMITTED IN THE C17 RECORD, THIS MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED. THE SAME LOGIC APPLIES TO THE C51 RECORD.

VEW:	FDA STATUS CONFLICTING/NOT ALLOWD

THIS ERROR MESSAGE IS AN INTERNAL REJECT MESSAGE BETWEEN CUSTOMS ACS AND FDA'S SYSTEM. IT OCCURS WHEN FDA ATTEMPTS TO SEND A PROCESSING STATUS ON AN ENTRY THAT HAS ALREADY BEEN PROCESSED WITH THE SAME STATUS OR A STATUS THAT DENOTES A COMPLETION OF THE ENTRY. THIS MESSAGE DOES NOT GO TO THE FILER NOR DOES IT AFFECT THE FDE STATUS OF THE ENTRY.

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.

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.

DLD:	WARNING-NO ACCEL APPV'D-CHK PRIVS

THIS MESSAGE OCCURS IN THE AUTOMATED DRAWBACK MODULE. IT IS A 'WARNING', NOT A FATAL ERROR, THAT APPEARS IF THE CLAIMANT HAS APPLIED FOR THE ACCELERATED PRIVILEGE, BUT HAS NOT YET BEEN APPROVED. MESSAGE DLD WILL CONTINUE TO BE A WARNING ONLY AFTER 4/6/1999.

VLB:	FC 740: INVALID FCC ID VALUE

FCC IDENTIFIERS ARE TRANSMITTED IN THE FC01 REC, POS 11-27.A MINIMUM OFF OUR ALPHANUMERIC CHARACTERS (INCLUDING SPECIAL CHARACTERS SUCH AS "/""-", ETC) ARE REQUIRED FOR THIS ELEMENT. THE FCC ID IS REQUIRED WHEN POS 5-6 OF THE FC01 REC INDICATE "1" AS THE IMPORT CONDITION.

DKP:	CONFLICTING DUTY AMOUNTS

IF THE CANADIAN DOLLAR DUTY AMOUNT IS GREATER THAN 0.00, THE U.S. DOLLAR EQUIVALENT MUST BE GREATER THAN 0.00.

8XS:	EXTENSION INVALID AFTER CLOSE DT

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO A TIB EXTENSION REQUEST (APPLICATION XN). IF THE TRANSMISSION IS MADE AT A DATE THAT WOULD CAUSE THE EXTENSION TO EXCEED THE DATE ALREADY SHOWN ON ENA AS THE TIB CLOSE DATE, THIS MESSAGE WILL GENERATE. EXTENSIONS OF TIBS ARE GRANTED FOR ONE YEAR PERIODS, SO THE REQUEST MUST BE MADE PRIOR TO ONE YEAR FROM THE PROPOSED TIB CLOSE DATE IN ORDER TO BE VALID.

VPK:	CANADIAN/US PAID DUTY CONFLICT

THIS MESSAGE OCCURS IN THE NAFTA DUTY DEFERRAL MODULE. THE NFTA CTRY PAID DUTY (IN FOREIGN CURRENCY) IS SENT IN THE D20 RECORD, POSITIONS 46-57. THE NFTA CTY PAID DUTY (IN US DOLLARS) IS SENT IN THE D20 RECORD, POSITIONS 58-69. IF THESE ARE IN CONFLICT, THIS MESSAGE WILL OCCUR.

95A:	21 REC REQ'D FOR SINGLE ENT BOND

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN ENTRY SUMMARY INPUT TRANSACTION (APPLICATION EI). EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 1999, ENTRY SUMMARIES WHICH REFLECT A SINGLE TRANSACTION BOND TYPE (CODE = 9) MUST ALSO CONTAIN A 21 RECORD TO REPORT THE BOND AMOUNT AND THE BOND PRODUCER IDENTIFICATION NUMBER. UNTIL JANUARY 1, 1999, FILERS MAY TRANSMIT SUMMARY DATA WITHOUT THIS RECORD, HOWEVER.

APV:	SAMPLE IND. CANNOT CHANGE

NOTIFICATION TO CUSTOMS THAT A SAMPLE HAS BEEN SENT, INDICATED BY 'S', MAY BE SUBMITTED BY FILER AT ANY TIME PRIOR TO ADJUDICATION OF PROTEST OR CLAIM BY CUSTOMS. 'N' INDICATES THAT A SAMPLE DOES NOT APPLY. ONCE SET TO 'S' THE SAMPLE INDICATOR CANNOT BE UN-SET TO 'N'.

J05:	AWB MUST BE 8 CHARACTERS

HOUSE AIR WAYBILLS MUST CONTAIN AT LEAST 8 CHARACTERS. IF FEWER THAN 8 CHARACTERS ARE TRANSMITTED IN THE INPUT RECORDS (EI, 22 REC, POS 27-38, HI, HA REC, POS 27-38), THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT. THE "8-CHARACTER" AWB NUMBER REFERS TO THE DIGITS FOLLOWING THE AIR CARRIER'S PREFIX (THREE CHARACTER NUMERIC IN POS 15-17 OF THE 22 REC IN EI OR POS 15-17 OF THE HA REC IN HI). IF THE PORT OF UNLADING IS AN AMS AIRPORT, ONLY 11- CHARACTERS (PREFIX + 8 DIGIT AWB) IS PERMITTED. SOME CARRIERS PERIODICALLY USE A 9-CHARACTER AWB FOLLOWING THE PREFIX FOR INTERNAL USES. THIS TYPE OF AWB WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED AT AIR AMS PORTS, BUT WILL BE ACCEPTED AT A NON-AMS PORT (SUCH AS 2895, THE FEDEX COURIER FACILITY IN OAKLAND, CA).

89T:	HMF REQUIRED

THIS ENTRY REQUIRES A HARBOR MAINTENANCE FEE BASED UPON MOT OF "12".

AFS:	43 SENT; NOT REQUIRED

THIS ERROR MESSAGE HAS OCCURRED IN TWO SITUATIONS. WHEN A PIRP NUMBER WAS SENT IN THE EI 43 RECORD WITH A PIRP CODE OF 'D', THIS MESSAGE FOLLOWED THE AFU' "PIRP NUMBER INVALID FOR 'D' TYPE". IT OCCURRED BY ITSELF WHEN A 43 RECORD WAS SENT WITHOUT A PIRP NUMBER BUT WITH A PIRP TYPE OF 'D'.

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.

10N:	I.T. FOR IMMEDIATE EXPORTATION

THIS MESSAGE OCCURS IN THE ABI EI AND HI TRANSACTIONS WHEN AN I.T. IS SENT IN POSITIONS 3-14 OF THE EI 22 RECORD OR IN POSITIONS 3-14 OF THE HI HA RECORD THAT HAS BEEN INPUT IN THE IN-BOND SYSTEM AS A CODE 63, I.T. FOR IMMEDIATE EXPORTATION. THE TYPE MUST BE CHANGED TO A NON-EXPORT TYPE BEFORE THE ENTRY CAN BE RESENT.

AFN:	ADD/CVD ENTRY REQUIRES 35 REC.

IF THE ENTRY TYPE IS 03 OR 07 (APPLICATION EI, REC 10, POS 71-72), A 35 RECORD IS REQUIRED.

RBR:	RECON FLR/LOCATION NOT PERMITTED

IF POSITIONS 47-53 OF THE 'B' RECORD FOR THE 'RA' RECONCILIATION SUMMARY TRANSACTION ARE FILLED-IN, AN ACS RECORD MUST EXIST FOR THAT PREPARER FILER CODE AND PREPARER DDPP TO RELATE THEM TO THE 'B' RECORD PROCESSING DDPP. THIS MESSAGE WILL OCCUR IF NO DATA PRESENT IN POSITIONS 47-53 AND THE PROCESSING DDPP AND FILER CODE IN THE 'B' RECORD ARE VALID ON THE FILER PROFILE, BUT DO NOT AGREE WITH THE FILER AND DDPP OF THE SUMMARY IN THE 'R10' RECORD. IF POSITIONS 47-53 ARE FILLED, THERE IS A RECORD TO RELATE THE PREPARER DDPP AND FILER TO THE PROCESSING DDPP AND FILER, BUT THE PROCESSING DDPP AND FILER DO NOT AGREE WITH THE 'R10' DDPP AND FILER, THIS MESSAGE WILL OCCUR. THIS MESSAGE WILL USUALLY OCCUR IN COMBINATION WITH ERROR MESSAGE 'RBP'.

VDG:	INCORRECTLY ESTIMATED MPF MAXIMUM

CLASS CODE 499 SHOULD INDICATE THE TOTAL MERCHANDISE PROCESSING FEES (MPF) FROM ALL LINE-ITEM 62 RECORDS. IF THE ACTUAL TOTAL IS GREATER THAN $485, 485 SHOULD BE TRANSMITTED IN THE 89 RECORD. NAFTA GOODS ORIGINATING IN MEXICO MAY CONTINUE TO HAVE MPF CLACULATED USING 0.19%. THE MAXIMUM MPF WILL BE $400. IF ONE OR MORE LINES IN AN ENTRY REQUIRE THE .21% MPF RATE, THEN THE MAXIMUM RATE WILL BE $485.00. THIS FEE AMOUNT WILL ALSO BE INCLUDED IN THE TOTAL FEE AMOUNT IN THE "90" RECORD.

486:	INVALID CONSIGNEE NUMBER FORMAT

THE DATE TRANSMITTED FOR THE OPENING OF THE IN-TRANSIT (I.T.) ACTION (WHICH MOVES THE FREIGHT FROM THE PORT OF ARRIVAL TO A SECOND U.S. PORT WHERE THE SHIPMENT WILL BE ENTERED) MUST BE ON OR AFTER THE DATE OF IMPORT OF THE FREIGHT INTO THE UNITED STATES. COMPARE THE I.T. DATE FROM THE SUMMARY TRANSMISSION, REC 22, POS 64-69, TO THE IMPORT DATE IN REC 20, POS 34-39.

VOR:	REMOTE ENTRY/SUMM CERT MISSING

THIS MESSAGE RESULTS WHEN A FILER, WHO IS SET TO OPERATIONAL FOR REMOTE LOCATION FILING (AND THEREFORE BY DEFINITION FOR AII), SENDS AN 'E' IN POSITION 56 OF THE 10 RECORD BUT DOES NOT SEND A '1' IN POSITION 37 OF THE 30 RECORD WHICH IS A CERTIFICATION OF THE ENTRY SUMMARY, AN ELECTRONIC SIGNATURE.
