ABI Error Message

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.
VNC: OGA/LINE RLSE MUST BE INDICATED

LINE RELEASE ENTRIES ARE ELIGIBLE FOR THE FDA INTERFACE. THE PRODUCT/ MANUFACTURER MUST BE APPROVED BY BOTH CUSTOMS AND FDA BEFORE IT CAN GO ON LINE RELEASE. ONCE IT IS APPROVED IT IS CONSIDERED "MAY PROCEEDED" WHEN ENTERED. THE FDA INFORMATION IS THEN SENT VIA THE ENTRY SUMMARY TRANSACTION. THE FILER MUST SEND A "1" IN APPLICATION EI, REC 10, POS 80 TO INDICATE THAT THE FDA SHIPMENT WAS RELEASED VIA LINE RELEASE. IF THEY DO NOT SEND THIS INDICATOR, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL OCCUR.
B15: INSUFFICIENT DATA IN FIRM OR CITY

INPUT FIRM NAME OR CITY NAME FIELD DOES NOT CONTAIN ENOUGH CHARACTERS TO CREATE A MANUFACTURER ID. IN ABI, THIS MESSAGE CAN OCCUR IF THE FILER TRANSMITS LOWER CASE LETTERS IN THE FIRM NAME OR CITY NAME FIELD, BUT THE FIRST LETTER OF THE FIRM NAME AND CITY NAME IS A CAPITAL LETTER. 
AFV: PIRP NUMBER CANNOT FOLLOW DESC

IF FILERS USE THE 43 RECORD TO TRANSMIT "INVREQ", NO COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION DATA IS PERMITTED IN POS 11-80 OF THE 43 REC. ANY DATA IN THIS FIELD WILL GENERATE THIS ERROR MESSAGE.
ADV: RELSE DATE EXCEEDS 7-DAY PERIOD

IN A CONSOLIDATED ENTRY TRANSACTION, THE NUMBER OF DAYS BETWEEN THE EARLIEST ENTRY AND THE LATEST ENTRY CANNOT EXCEED SEVEN DAYS. 
VN2: CERT MFGR NBR NOT ON FILE

THIS DRAWBACK MODULE ERROR MESSAGE MEANS THAT THE CM (CERT MFGR) NUMBER FORMAT IS VALID, BUT THE CM NUMBER DOES NOT EXIST IN ACS.  
51A: INFORMAL ENTRY HAS TOO HIGH VALUE

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.
Q11: PAYMENT ACCEPTED

THE 'QT' RECORD HAS BEEN ACCEPTED ERROR FREE. THE STATEMENT WILL BE MARKED AS "PAID", POSTINGS TO THE INDIVIDUAL ENTRIES WILL OCCUR, A FINAL STATEMENT WILL BE GENERATED, AND AN ELECTRONIC ACH DEBIT WILL OCCUR TO THE PAYOR'S BANK ACCOUNT DENOTED BY THE 'QT' TRANSACTION PAYOR'S UNIT NUMBER.
10Y: V/F/T REQUIRED FOR AIR CARRIER

THIS MESSAGE RESULTS FROM AN ENTRY SUMMARY INPUT TRANSACTION (EI) WHEN THE FILER HAS REQUESTED CARGO CERTIFICATION AND THE MOT IS 40 (AIR). IF THE 20 RECORD, POS 61-66 DOES NOT CONTAIN A FLIGHT NUMBER, THIS MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED AND WILL PREVENT PROVISIONAL CARGO SELECTIVITY RESULTS FROM BEING ISSUED. THIS MESSAGE WILL NOT REJECT THE SUMMARY; IT WILL ONLY PREVENT CARGO CERTIFICATION FROM OCCURRING.
ARR: ON FILE OR ACTION CODE IS WRONG

THE ID NUMBER OF THE REFUND CARE/OF PARTY IS ALREADY ON THE PROTEST RECORD MAKING IT A DUPLICATE, OR THE FILER NEEDS TO CHECK THAT THE APPROPRIATE ACTION CODE IS BEING USED: "A" = ADD, "R" = REPLACE. 
VAR: ENT-SUM ACCEPTD-PAPER NOW REQ'D

THIS IS AN INFORMATIONAL MESSAGE THAT OCCURS IN ABI ENTRY SUMMARY PROCESSING WHEN A PREVIOUS PAPERLESS ENTRY SUMMARY HAS CHANGED TO A PAPER REQUIRED STATUS. THIS MESSAGE IS AN OLD ONE AND HAS BEEN REPLACED BY "ACCEPTED, RECORDS REQUIRED".
EIB: INVALID EXCHANGE RATE INDICATOR

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN AUTOMATED INVOICE TRANSMISSION (APPLICATION CI). THE FIXED EXCHANGE RATE INDICATOR IS TRANSMITTED IN THE C01, C18, OR C53 RECORDS. THE TWO ACCEPTABLE VALUES FOR THIS ELEMENT ARE "1" (FIXED RATE APPLIES) OR "0" (NO FIXED RATE APPLIES). ANY OTHER VALUE IN THIS FIELD, INCLUDING BLANKS, WILL GENERATE THIS ERROR MESSAGE.
8WM: VOYAGE/FLIGHT NUMBER INVALID

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO A BILL OF LADING UPDATE TRANSMISSION (APPLICATION LN). THE VOYAGE/FLIGHT NUMBER MUST BE A MINIMUM OF THREE CHARACTERS IN LENGTH. FOR OCEAN SHIPMENTS (MOT 10/11/12), ANY COMBINATION OF NUMBERS AND LETTERS IS PERMITTED FOR THE VOYAGE NUMBER. IF THE VOYAGE NUMBER HAS A LEADING SPACE AT THE BEGINNING OF THE ELEMENT IN THE L1 REC, POS 36-40, THIS MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED EVEN IF THE REMAINING POSITIONS ARE FILLED WITH A MINIMUM OF THREE ALPHA-NUMERIC CHARACTERS. **NOTE** - FOR AIR SHIPMENTS, LEADING SPACES OR A FLIGHT NUMBER WITH FEWER THAN 3 NUMERIC CHARACTERS WILL GENERATE ERROR MESSAGE 10R "INVALID FLIGHT NUMBER FORMAT".
AFL: ADD TOTAL AMT INVALID

THE TOTAL ADD AMOUNT IN THE 90 REC, POS 38-48 DOES NOT EQUAL THE SUM OF THE BONDED ADD DUTY AND THE PAYABLE ADD DUTY TRANSMITTED IN THE 35 RECORD, POS 3-13 AND 15-25 RESPECTIVELY. 
2GC: DATA ADDED AS REQUESTED

THIS IS A NORMAL RESPONSE MESSAGE TO A CARGO RELEASE DATA INPUT TRANSACTION (APPLICATION HI) WHEN THE FILER USES ACTION CODE "A" TO ADD DATA. UNLESS THE INPUT CONTAINS A CERTIFICATION CODE OF "1" IN POSITION 41 OF THE H1 RECORD, ABI WILL NOT GENERATE PROVISIONAL SELECTIVITY RESULTS TO THIS INPUT.
95V: 52 REC - 'HK' SWPM IND MISSING

A SOLID WOOD PACKING MATERIAL CERTIFICATE INDICATOR IS REQUIRED FOR ALL LINES WITH A COUNTRY OF ORIGIN OF 'CN' (CHINA) OR 'HK' (HONG KONG) AND AN EXPORT = OR > 12/17/1998. 
29G: "Z" RECORD MISSING OR INVALID

THIS MESSAGE INDICATES THAT THE "Z" RECORD IS MISSING FROM THE INPUT APPLICATION TRANSMISSION. THE ERROR MESSAGE NUMBER USUALLY IS NOT DISPLAY WHEN THIS ERROR OCCURS. 
27A: CENSUS IMPROBABLE COUNTRY

THIS MESSAGE IS AN ABI REPLY TO AN ENTRY SUMMARY (EI) INPUT TRANSACTION. IT INDICATES THAT THE DATA COLLECTED BY CENSUS DOES NOT INDICATE THAT THE TARIFF NUMBER FOR THE LINE IN QUESTION HAS NOT BEEN PREVIOUSLY REPORTED FROM THE TRANSMITTED COUNTRY OF ORIGIN. THE FILER SHOULD VERIFY THE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN AND/OR TARIFF NUMBER AND, IF NECESSARY, MAKE CORRECTIONS. IF THE DATA IS ACCURATE AS TRANSMITTED, NO FURTHER ACTION VIA ABI IS NECESSARY.
BR8: INVALID ACTION CODE

THE FILER HAS ATTEMPTED A TRANSACTION CODE FOR 'RA' OF OTHER THAN 'A', 'R', 'D'.  
EIY: INVALID RELATE DOCUMENT ID

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN AUTOMATED INVOICE TRANSMISSION (APPLICATION CI). THE C19 RECORD IS USED TO REPORT THE PRESENCE OF DOCUMENTS THAT MAY RELATE TO THE INVOICE IN QUESTION. IF THE C19 RECORD IS USED, POS 4-6 MUST REFLECT ONE OF THE ACCEPTABLE VALUES FOR THE RELATED DOCUMENT IDENTIFIER. THESE IDENTIFIERS ARE LISTED IN APPENDIX B TO THE CATAIR. THE USE OF ANY INDICATOR NOT LISTED IN APPENDIX B WILL GENERATE THIS ERROR MESSAGE.
27J: *CENSUS* OR-AGR CHARGES/VALUE

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED ON ENTRY SUMMARY INPUT TRANSACATIONS WHEN THE LINE ITEM CHARGES (40 REC, POS 48-57) DIVIDED BY THE LINE ITEM VALUE (40 REC, POS 8-17) EXCEED A STATED PERCENTAGE. IF THE RATIO BETWEEN THE CHARGES AND VALUE EXCEEDS THE PERCENTAGE SHOWN ON TARIFF/CENSUS DATABASE BY MORE THAN 300 PERCENT, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED. (EXAMPLE: VALUE IS $400 FOR TARIFF 8541402000 AND THE CHARGES ARE $100. THIS IS A 25% RATIO. THE RECORD FOR THE TARIFF NUMBER SHOWS 7% AS THE UPPER LIMIT. 7% OF $400 IS $28. 300% OF THIS FIGURE WOULD BE $84. THEREFORE, CHARGES FROM $1 TO $84 WOULD NOT GENERATE THIS WARNING MESSAGE, BUT CHARGES OF $85 OR HIGHER WOULD.) FOR SHIPMENTS BY AIR, THE CHARGES IS SOMETIMES COMPARED TO THE GROSS WEIGHT (40 REC, POS18-27) AND THIS MESSAGE COULD BE GENERATED EVEN IN A CASE WHERE THE CHARGES/VALUE RATIO WAS BELOW 300% OF THE VALUE.
VLM: DRAWBACK DELETE CODE INVALID

THIS MESSAGE WILL APPEAR IF THE FILER HAS USED AN ADDITION/DELETION CODE OF 'D' ON THE 'CH' HEADER RECORD OF THE DRAWBACK DISKETTE (THE D10 ABI RECORD) AND THE CLAIM IS ALREADY IN A CUSTOMS STATUS. A DELETE OF A CLAIM BY A FILER CAN ONLY BE HONORED IF THE CLAIM IS STILL IN 'ABI' STATUS. ALL CLAIMS CREATED BY DISKETTE OR VIA ABI ARE PLACED IN ABI STATUS BY ACS WHEN FIRST ACCEPTED ERROR-FREE. THE SAME LOGIC APPLIES TO IMPORT ENTRIES FILED ELECTRONICALLY VIA ABI. ONCE IN CUSTOMS STATUS, THEY CANNOT BE DELETED BY THE FILER. NOTE: THE CLAIM CANNOT BE DELETED AT ALL IF ACCELERATED DRAWBACK HAS BEEN PAID. IF ACCELERATED DRAWBACK HAS BEEN PAID AND THE FILER WISHES TO DELETE, THE CLAIM WILL HAVE TO BE LIQUIDATED "NO DRAWBACK" AND A BILL ISSUED FOR REPAYMENT OF THE ACCELERATED DRAWBACK. IF ACCELERATED HAS NOT BEEN PAID, BUT THE ENTRY IS IN A CUSTOMS STATUS, IT CAN BE CANCELLED, BUT NOT DELETED.
99C: AG LICENSE NOT REQUIRED

THIS ERROR IS ALSO GENERATED WHEN THE FIRST TARIFF NUMBER IS 99041030, THE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN IS 'CA' AND AN AGRICULTURE LICENSE IS ENTERED.
Q20: 'QT' REC PREVIOUSLY ACCEPTED

IF A PREVIOUS TRANSMISSION WAS SUCCESSFUL IN SENDING AN ACH AUTHORIZATION FOR THE STATEMENT NUMBER IN THE INSTANT TRANSACTION, THIS MESSAGE WILL RESULT. THE PREVIOUS TRANSMISSION DID NOT HAVE TO OCCUR ON THE SAME DAY AS THE TRANSMISSION BEING REJECTED.
