ABI Error Message

005:	INVALID DATE

THE DATE MUST BE NUMERIC, WITHOUT SLASHES OR HYPHENS, IN THE FORMAT MMDDYY. THE DATE WILL BE COMPARED WITH THE CURRENT SYSTEM DATE. IN MOST CASES THE DATE CANNOT BE GREATER THAN THE CURRENT SYSTEM DATE. DEPENDING UPON THE FUNCTION THE DATE MAY BE TOO FAR IN THE PAST, OR IT MAY BE OUT OF SEQUENCE WITH SOME OTHER DATE IN THE SYSTEM. FOR EXAMPLE, THE DATE OF ENTRY SUMMARY FILING MAY NOT PRECEDE THE DATE OF RELEASE ON AN IMMEDIATE RELEASE ENTRY. INBOND DATES MUST BE IN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER.

3A5:	SELECTIVITY ALREADY PERFORMED

THIS MESSAGE OCCURS WHEN A FILER ATTEMPTS TO SEND SELECTIVITY DATA FOR AN ENTRY NUMBER WHERE SELECTIVITY HAS ALREADY BEEN PERFORMED, EITHER ELECTRONICALLY OR BY MANUAL PROCESSING. THIS MESSAGE DOES NOT OCCUR IF THE FILER SENDS SELECTIVITY DATA FOR AN ENTRY THAT RECEIVED AN INITIAL SELECTIVITY RESPONSE OF "PAPERLESS". IN THIS CASE THE FILER WILL RECEIVE MESSAGE 681 "CUSTOMS REL VIA EREL ON FILE". NOTE: IN SOME CASES, THIS MESSAGE WILL ACCOMPANY THE MESSAGE "OGA DATA IGNORED" AND IF THE INPUT APPLICATION WAS FROM AN ENTRY SUMMARY, THESE TWO MESSAGES WILL NOT CAUSE A REJECTION.

ARW:	REFUND PARTY NBR NOT ON FILE

THE NUMBER LISTED DOES NOT EXIST ON THE USCS IMPORTER FILE. THE MOST COMMON REASON FOR THIS ERROR IS THAT THE IRS, SSN OR USCS NUMBER HAS BEEN TRANSMITTED IN AN IMPROPER FORMAT. DASHES MUST BE INCLUDED IN THE FORMAT. FOR IRS NUMBERS, NN-NNNNNNNNN IS THE REQUIRED FORMAT. FOR SSN'S, NNN-NN-NNNN IS THE REQUIRED FORMAT. FOR USCS NUMBERS, YYDDPP-NNNN IS THE REQUIRED FORMAT. IRS NUMBERS MUST BE 12 CHARACTERS LONG; NUMBERS LISTED AT THE 10 CHARACTER LEVEL WILL BE REJECTED BECAUSE ALL IRS NUMBERS ARE LISTED AT THE 12 CHARACTER LEVEL IN THE USCS IMPORTER FILE. WHEN A 2 CHARACTER SUFFIX IS NOT USED AT THE END OF THE IRS NUMBER, 2 ZEROS SHOULD BE USED (NN-NNNNNNN00).

ASN:	ARGUMENT/JUSTIFICATION N/A

ADDITIONAL NARRATIVE IS NOT ACCEPTED WHEN A SERVICE REQUEST IS FILED REQUEST REVIEW OF DENIAL OF AN APPLICATION FOR FURTHER REVIEW. THAT REVIEW WILL BE BASED SOLELY ON THE INFORMATION BEFORE THE CUSTOMS SERVICE AT THE TIME THE APPLICATION FOR FURTHER REVIEW WAS DENIED.

IF A REGISTERED IMPORTER NUMBER IS TRANSMITTED IN THE DT02 RECORD, POS 56-63, IT MUST BE TRANSMITTED IN THE FOLLOWING FORMAT: R-YY-NNN. THE NUMBER TRANSMITTED MUST ALSO RESIDE ON THE DTRL DATABASE. IF THE NUMBER IS NOT ON THE DTRL FILE OR IS NOT TRANSMITTED IN THE PROPER FORMAT, THIS MESSAGE WILL RESULT.

VLL:	TOT CERT MFGR COUNT INVALID

THIS DRAWBACK MODULE ERROR MESSAGE MEANS THAT THE SUM OF ALL THE DISKETTE 'IT' IMPORT TRAILER, 'CN' CONTRACT TRAILER, 'CM' IMPORT TRAILER, OR 'CI' CANADIAN IMPORT TRAILER RECORDS OR ABI 'D12', '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 ABI CANNOT KNOW WHETHER THE TOTAL COUNT IS SIMPLY WRONG, OR THE TOTAL COUNT IS RIGHT AND THERE ARE MISSING RECORDS.

VA3:	FORM REC TYPE INV/OUT OF SEQ

THIS MESSAGE OCCURS IN A FDA INTERFACE ENTRY. THE REQUIRED ORDER OF FDA LINES IS: FD01 FD02 FD03 FD04 (OPTIONAL) FD05 (OPTIONAL) IF ONE OF THE RECORDS IS OMITTED (E.G. FD01 THEN FD03) THIS MESSAGE WILL OCCUR.

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".

15F:	TARIFF NBR NOT LOGICALLY RELATED

THE TARIFF NUMBER IDENTIFIED IS NOT LOGICALLY RELATED TO ANOTHER TARIFF NUMBER ON THE LINE IN THE SUMMARY TRANSMISSION. THE MOST COMMON EXAMPLE IS THE ATTEMPT TO REPORT A NUMBER FROM CHAPTERS 1-97 WITH TARIFF NUMBER 98010010NN. THIS IS A TARIFF NUMBER FOR REPORTING THE RETURN OF A PRODUCT MANUFACTURED OR PRODUCED IN THE UNITED STATES. A SECOND TARIFF NUMBER IS NOT PERMITTED WHEN REPORTING U.S. GOODS RETURNED. OTHER EXAMPLES INCLUDE REPORTING WATCH/CLOCK COMPONENTS NOT RELATED TO ONE ANOTHER AND REPORTING CERTAIN WEARING APPAREL ARTICLES AS PART OF AN ENSEMBLE WHEN THE DATABASE DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THE COMPONENT AS BELONGING TO THE ENSEMBLE.

SELECTED TARIFF NUMBERS ARE ALSO SUBJECT TO DOLLAR LIMITATIONS FOR INFORMAL ENTRIES AS LISTED IN APPENDIX K OF THE CATAIR, PAGE K-3. SEE ALSO ERROR MESSAGE 51D. FOR AMERICAN GOODS RETURNED ENTRIES, USING TARIFF 98010010NN ONLY, THE VALUE LIMIT IS $10,000. FOR INFORMAL ENTRIES USING "P", THERE IS NO VALUE LIMIT EXCEPT AS MENTIONED ABOVE IN APPENDIX K FOR CERTAIN TEXTILE PRODUCTS.

ARB:	SURETY CERTIFICATION REQ'D

FC3:	FCCFORM 740 MAY BE REQUIRED

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN ABI ENTRY SUMMARY INPUT TRANSACTION (APPLICATION EI). IF THE TARIFF NUMBER TRANSMITTED IN THE 50 REC, POS 4-13, IS CODED FC3 ON THE TARIFF DATABASE, THE FILER MUST PROVIDE EITHER AN FCC DISCLAIMER (OA RECORD) OR THE FCC DATA. IF NEITHER RECORDS ARE INCLUDED IN THE SUMMARY INPUT, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT.

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.

VNI:	FD 701: MLTPLE BASE UNITS INVALID

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, 92-32, 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. THE FILER CANNOT SEND MORE THAN ONE BASE UNIT. BASE UNITS ARE LOCATED IN THE CATAIR, PAGE OGA-31. TO SOLVE THIS ERROR, THE FILER MUST USE THE BASE UNIT AND A CONTAINER CODE (S) FOUND ON PAGES OGA 32-33, CATAIR.

AP0:	SECURITY VIOLATION!!

BOTH A VALID CUSTOMS ASSIGNED PROTEST NUMBER AND THE CORRESPONDING FILER ASSIGNED REFERENCE NUMBER ARE REQUIRED TO FILE AMENDMENTS, ADDENDA, OR SERVICE REQUEST FOR EXISTING PROTESTS! THE FILER REFERENCE NUMBER SUBMITTED DOES NOT CORRESPOND TO THE PROTEST NUMBER.

BRA:	EXPECTED R17 AMT(S) = ZEROES

IF THE RESULT OF SUBTRACTING THE R90 ORIGINAL DUTY/TAX/FREE AMOUNT FROM THE RECON DUTY/TAX/FREE AMOUNT EQUALS ZERO OR LESS THAN ZERO, THE PAYABLE AMOUNTS FOR THE CORRESPONDING FIGURE MUST ALSO EQUAL ZERO IN THE R17 RECORD. IF THE R17 RECORD IS GREATER THAN ZERO, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT. AS ALL THREE AMOUNTS (DUTY, TAXES, OR FEES) APPEAR IN BOTH THE R90 AND R17 RECORDS, MAKE SURE TO CHECK ALL THREE ELEMENTS IF THIS ERROR MESSAGE IS GENERATED FOR AN ENTRY.

VAB:	FC 740:INV 03 APPROVAL IND

THE QUANTITY FOR AN 03 IMPORT CONDITION NUMBER CANNOT EXCEED 200 UNITS WITH 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." THIS MESSAGE ALSO OCCURRED IN AN ENTRY WHERE THE FILER SENT A '1' IN POSITION 7 EVEN THOUGH THE QUANTITY WAS LESS THAN 200.

VGZ:	FEI NOT FOUND ON ACS

THIS MESSAGE OCCURS WHEN A FILER QUERIES ABI TO DETERMINE WHETHER AN FDA ESTABLISHMENT NUMBER (FEI) IS ON FILE. ALL TWELVE NUMBERS MUST BE USED INCLUDING LEADING ZEROS. THE FILER USES THE FDPP-10 RECORD SHOWN ON PAGE OGQ-14 OF THE CATAIR WITH A "Q" IN THE ACTION CODE. THIS MESSAGE IS RETURNED WHEN THE FEI NUMBER QUERIED IS NOT FOUND IN ACS. A COMMON REASON IS BECAUSE THE FILER IS NOT QUERYING ALL 12 NUMBERS. THEY SHOULD RESEND THE QUERY USING ALL NUMBERS INCLUDING LEADING ZEROS.

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."

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.

ART:	REFUND PARTY TYPE REQUIRED

WHEN LISTING A REFUND CARE/OF PARTY, BOTH AN IRS NUMBER AND PARTY TYPE CODE ARE REQUIRED. THE PARTY TYPE CODE IS MISSING. USE ONE OF THE FOLLOWING: B - BROKER D - DRAWBACK CLAIMANT I - IMPORTER/CONSIGNEE M - SHIP'S MASTER S - SURETY T - ATTORNEY V - VESSEL OWNER/OPERATOR
