89E:	FEE CODE ENTERED/NOT REQUIRED

THIS MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED IF A FEE IS TRANSMITTED IN THE 62 RECORD FOR A TARIFF NUMBER THAT DOES NOT CONTAIN A FLAG FOR THAT FEE ON THE TARIFF FILE. THE MOST COMMON EXAMPLE IS THE TRANSMISSION OF A COTTON FEE, CLASS CODE 056, FOR A TARIFF NUMBER THAT DOES NOT HAVE A COTTON FEE ON ITS CURRENT RECORD. FILERS SHOULD VERIFY THE APPLICABILITY OF THE FEE FROM THE TARIFF FILES. THIS MESSAGE WILL ALSO RESULT IF CERTAIN FEES ARE TRANSMITTED INCORRECTLY ON A SET ENTRY. IN THIS CASE, THE MPF FEE (499) AND THE HMF (501) FEES MUST ONLY BE TRANSMITTED WITH THE "X" LINES. OTHER TARIFF SPECIFIC FEES CAN ONLY BE TRANSMITTED WITH THE APPROPRIATE "V" LINES. THIS MESSAGE IS ALSO GENERATED IF THE AMOUNT OF THE COTTON FEE, CALCULATED BY ACS, IS LESS THAN $2.01, USING THE CORRECT RATE.

MORE THAN 2 YEARS OLD

THIS MESSAGE OCCURS WHEN A FILER CERTIFIES FOR CARGO SELECTIVITY WHEN THE PORT OF ENTRY IS NOT OPERATIONAL FOR CARGO SELECTIVITY (THE DISTRICT-PORT RECORD FOR THE PORT SHOWS C/S = "N"). THIS ERROR REJECTS THE CERTIFICATION FOR CARGO SELECTIVITY PROCESSING. IT DOES NOT REJECT THE SUMMARY. THE FILER SHOULD VERIFY THAT THEY ARE USING THE PROPER PORT OF ENTRY. THIS PROBLEM OCCURS REGULARLY BETWEEN OAKLAND AND SAN FRANCISCO. OAKLAND (2811) IS THE CORRECT PORT OF UNLADING. THE PROPER PORT OF ENTRY FOR OAKLAND IS SAN FRANCISCO (2809). THE PROBLEM IS FIXED BY HAVING THE FILER RETRANSMIT WITH THE PROPER PORT OF ENTRY (IN THIS CASE, 2809) IF THE CORRECT PORT OF ENTRY IS NOT OPERATIONAL FOR CARGO SELECTIVITY, THE ENTRY MUST BE HANDLED NON-ABI.

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.

662:	IMPORTER NUMBER IS VOIDED

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

A MODEL OR TYPE NUMBER CODE IS REQUIRED TO BE SENT IN THE FC01 RECORD, POSITIONS 58-74.

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).

VGB:	FD 701: PRODUCT CODE NOT ON FILE

THIS ERROR OCCURS WHEN A FILER ATTEMPTS TO USE AN FDA PRODUCT CODE THAT IS NOT ON FILE IN ACS. FDA MAINTAINS THE FILE. THE FILER SHOULD BE INSTRUCTED TO CONTACT THEIR FDA CONTACT TO CHECK THE PRODUCT CODE. THERE ARE APPROXIMATELY 580,000 PRODUCT CODES.
