ABI Error Message

8WL: INVALID CARRIER CODE

THIS ERROR MESSAGE OCCURS IN THE BILL OF LADING UPDATE (LN) TRANSACTION WHEN A FILER SENDS AN INVALID CARRIER CODE IN THE L1 RECORD, POSITIONS 32-35. 
EI4: INVALID ALLOWANCE CHARGE AMOUNT

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN AUTOMATED INVOICE TRANSMISSION (APPLICATION CI). THE C17 AND C18 RECORDS PROVIDE FOR THE REPORTING OF HEADER LEVEL CHARGES/ALLOWANCES. (THE C51/C53 RECORDS REPORT THESE ELEMENTS AT THE LINE LEVEL, BUT THIS MESSAGE ALSO APPLIES TO THOSE RECORDS). THE DOLLAR AMOUNT IN POS 4-18 OF THE C18 RECORD MUST VARY BY NO MORE THAN ONE CENT, PLUS OR MINUS, WHEN COMPARED TO THE DOLLAR AMOUNT PRODUCED FROM THE APPROPRIATE CALCULATION THAT OCCURS AS A RESULT OF THE COMBINATION OF ELEMENTS TRANSMITTED ON THE C17 RECORD. THE COMBINATION OF ELEMENTS IN THE C17 RECORD THAT ARE USED IN THE CALCULATION IS: - RATE/PER UNIT X UNIT PRICE BASIS /NBR OF PRICING UNITS (FROM ALL THE PRECEDING C33 RECORDS.) (IF C51/53 RECORDS ARE USED, ONLY THE C33 RECORD IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE C51/53 RECORDS IS USED TO DETERMINE THE NUMBER OF PRICING UNITS).
VMD: VERIFY WHSE EXPIRATION PERIOD

ENA01-IMP-DATE ON AN ORIGINAL WAREHOUSE ENTRY REFERENCED BY A WAREHOUSE WITHDRAWAL WAS NOT GIVEN (NOT NUMERIC). 
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.
AQL: ASSOC. PROT. NBR NOT APPLIC

WHEN FILING AN INTERVENTION IN A PROTEST OF AN ADVERSE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN MARKING DECISION UNDER NAFTA, THE USCS ASSIGNED PROTEST NUMBER UPON WHICH IS BEING INTERVENED IS REQUIRED. THE INTERVENTION MAY BE FILED AT ANY TIME AFTER PRO- TEST UNTIL USCS DECISION. THIS FIELD DOES NOT APPLY WHEN FILING TYPE 514 PROTESTS OR TYPE 520(C) OR 520(D) CLAIMS.
487: INVALID REFERENCE NUMBER FORMAT

THE REFERENCE NUMBER IS TRANSMITTED BY THE FILER AND USUALLY REPRESENTS THE FILER'S IRS, OR SSN NUMBER. WHEN A CUSTOMS FORM 4811 HAS BEEN PROCESSED BY LOCAL CUSTOMS, THE AGENT (OWNER OF THE REFERENCE NUMBER) WILL RECEIVE CERTAIN NOTIFICATIONS, LIQUIDATION NOTICES, ETC. FOR THE IMPORTER OF RECORD ON THE ENTRY. THE REFERENCE NUMBER MUST BE TRANSMITTED IN ACCEPTABLE IRS (NN-NNNNNNNNN) OR SSN (NNN-NN-NNNN) FORMAT IN THE 10 REC, POS 32-43. IF THE FORMAT IS NOT CORRECT, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED.
VGO: FD 701: FDA VALUE EXCEEDS USCS

THE FDA VALUE (REC03, POS 5-14) MUST NOT EXCEED THE CUSTOMS VALUE IN THE40+70+80+81 RECORD(S) OR THIS REJECT WILL OCCUR. THIS REJECT WILL ALSO OCCUR IF MULTIPLE FDA LINES (FD01-FD05 RECORDS) ARE SENT WITHIN ONE CUSTOMS LINE AND ALL OF THE VALUES COMBINED IN THOSE LINES EXCEED THE CUSTOMS VALUE.
BRW: EARLIEST SUMM DATE MUST = SPACES

RECONCILIATION: WHEN THE R10 ISSUE CODE = 'NF', THE R10 EARLIEST SUMMARY DATE MUST = SPACES. 
29M: INVALID CONTROL IDENTIFIER

THIS ERROR MESSAGE OCCURS IN THE AII MODULE. THE VALID APPLICATION IDENTIFIER FOR THE AUTOMATED INVOICE INTERFACE IS 'CI'. 
VNL: AUTOCERT INVALID - OGA LINE RLSE

THIS MESSAGE OCCURS IN AN ENTRY SUMMARY TRANSACTION WHEN THE FILER ATTEMPTS TO CERTIFY FOR CARGO SELECTIVITY FOR AN ENTRY NUMBER WHICH WAS RELEASED AS A FDA LINE RELEASE ENTRY. THE FILER MUST SEND THE EI TRANSACTION WITHOUT CARGO RELEASE CERTIFICATION AND SEND A '1' IN POSITION 80 OF THE EI 10 RECORD WHICH IDENTIFIES THE ENTRY AS A FDA LINE RELEASE ENTRY. NOTE: THE ABOVE MESAGE WILL ALSO BE GENERATED FOR AN ENTRY NUMBER THAT HAS NOT BEEN PROCESSED THROUGH LINE RELEASE IF THE SAME CONDITIONS AS OUTLINED ABOVE EXIST (CARGO CERT IN POS 38 OF THE 30 RECORD ACCOMPANIED BY A 1 IN POS 80 OF THE 10 REC). THUS, THIS MESSAGE WILL RESULT ON NON-LINE RELEASE ENTRIES IF THE AUTO CERTIFICATION INDICATOR IS "1" AND THE OGA INDICATOR IS ALSO TRANSMITTED. (IF A TRUE NON-LINE RELEASE ENTRY, THE CORRECTION IS TO REMOVE THE OGA INDICATOR IN THE 10 RECORD).
ASC: SEQUENCE NUMBER INVALID

SEQUENCE NUMBER INVALID. ONLY NUMERALS ARE VALID FOR SEQUENCE. THE FIRST LINE WOULD BE 0001, THE TENTH LINE WOULD BE 0010. EITHER THE LINES ARE NOT SEQUENTIALLY NUMBERED OR THE FORMAT USED IS INCORRECT. EXAMPLE: 1000 WOULD BE INCORRECT FOR LINE 1.
56G: ISSUER CODE/MOT CONFLICT

IN THE CARGO RELEASE DATA INPUT TRANSACTION, APPLICATION HI, THE MODE OF TRANSPORTATION (H1 REC, POS 32-33) MUST AGREE WITH THE CODE REPRESENTING THE IMPORTING CARRIER. (H1 REC, POS 70-73). FOR AIR SHIPMENTS USING MOT 40, THE ISSUER CODE IS NOT USED AND MUST BE BLANK. IF THE ISSUER CODE FIELD IS NOT BLANK, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT. FOR MOT 20 OR 30, THE ISSUER CODE FIELD IS IGNORED.
AFR: STMT BRANCH/BROKER MISMATCH

THIS MESSAGE OCCCURS WHEN A FILER SENDS A STATEMENT BRANCH CODE IN POSITIONS 49-50 OF THE EI 20 RECORD ALONG WITH A STATEMENT INDICATOR AND STATEMENT DATE BUT THE BRANCH CODE HAS NOT BEEN SET TO OPERATIONAL IN THE ABE FILE. ALSO, IF THE FILER HAS BEEN SET TO 'Y' FOR BRANCH ON THE ABI RPOFILE RECORD, BUT THEN NEGLECTS TO INCLUDE A BRANCH DESIGNATION IN THE 20 RECORD (POS 49-50), THIS MESSAGE WILL OCCUR. IN A RECONILIATION ENTRY, THE R17 REC, POS 11-12, MUST REFLECT A CLIENT BRANCH DESIGNATION IF THE ABEI RECORD IS SET TO 'Y' FOR THIS FEATURE. THIS MESSAGE WILL ALSO OCCUR IF THE FILER USES THE 'STATEMENT ADD/DELTE' APPLICATION (HP) AND SENDS BRANCH DESIGNATION IN POS 25-26.
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.
AS3: WRN: 514 PROT MAYBE UNTIMELY

A 514 PROTEST MAY BE FILED WITHIN 90 DAYS OF THE DATE OF NOTICE OF LIQUIDATION OF AN ENTRY, OR WITHIN 90 DAYS OF ANOTHER DATE CITED AS THE FILING/AMENDMENT PERIOD BASE DATE. ACS COMPARES THE SYSTEM DATE TO THE DATE OF LIQUIDATION THE ENTRY (OR OLDEST ENTRY WHEN MULTIPLE ENTRIES ARE CITED), OR THE FILING AMENDMENT PERIOD BASE DATE, TO DETERMINE IF THE DATE OF FILING IS AFTER THE 90TH DAY. 
" J04: LAST 8 CHARACTERS MUST BE NUMERIC

THIS MESSAGE PERTAINS TO AIR WAYBILL NUMBERS. MASTER AIR WAYBILL NUMBERS ARE ALL NUMERIC IN FORMAT. HOUSE AIR WAYBILL NUMBERS ARE PERMITTED TO REFLECT ALPHA CHARACTERS. IF THE FILER TRANSMITS A MASTER AIR WAYBILL NUMBER THAT INCLUDES ALPHA CHARACTERS, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT.  
89O: MPF REQUIRED

THIS ENTRY REQUIRES A MERCHANDISE PROCESSING FEE BUT NONE WAS ENTERED. MPF IS DUE ON ALL ENTRIES UNLESS OTHERWISE EXEMPT. SOME OF THE EXEMPTIONS ARE: -- ALL TARIFF NUMBERS IN CHAPTER 98, EXCEPT 98020060NN AND 98020080NN. -- ENTRIES FROM INSULAR POSSESSIONS OF THE UNITED STATES. -- ENTRIES FROM CARRIBEAN INITIATIVE COUNTRIES (SPI E) OR LDDC COUNTRIES. -- INFORMAL ENTRIES (ALTHOUGH AN INFORMAL MPF IS REQUIRED AT THE ENTRY LEVEL.) -- NAFTA ENTRIES FROM CANADA.
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.
VOA: DBK FLR NOT PERMITTED IN LOCATION

THE EDIT THAT PRODUCES THIS MESSAGE ONLY APPLIES TO LICENSED BROKERS. IT IS NOT PERFORMED AGAINST FILERS WHO FILE THEIR OWN DRAWBACK CLAIMS. ACS KNOWS WHICH ARE NOT LICENSED. THE MESSAGE INDICATES THAT, WHILE THE FILER IS A LICENSED BROKER, THE FILER DOES NOT HAVE AN OPERATING PERMIT WITHIN THE REGION WHERE THE DRAWBACK CLAIM IS BEING FILED.
VHS: DT HS7: MODEL REQUIRED

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO A DOT INTERFACE RECORD (DT02). IF THE FILER TRANSMITS A DT02 RECORD WITH THE VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION DATA, A MODEL NAME IS REQUIRED IN POS 20-34 OF THE DT02 RECORD. IF THE MODEL NAME IS LEFT BLANK, THIS MESSAGE WILL RESULT.
AID: CASE TERMINATED

THE CASE (ANTIDUMPING OR COUNTERVAILING) REPORTED BY THE ABI FILER IN AN ENTRY SUMMARY TRANSACTION (APPLICATION IDENTIFIER EI) IS A TERMINATED CASE NUMBER. CASE NUMBERS ARE REPORTED IN THE 60 REC, POS 13-22 FOR CVD CASES AND POS 23-32 FOR ADA CASES.
485: REFERENCE # CF4811 NOT ON FILE

THIS IS A WARNING MESSAGE AND WILL NOT CAUSE, BY ITSELF, A REJECTION OF THE SUMMARY INPUT. THE CF4811 IS A SPECIAL ADDRESS NOTIFICATION FORM THAT IS SUBMITTED IN HARDCOPY TO LOCAL CUSTOMS. (IT IS NOT AN AUTOMATED PROCESS FOR ABI AT THIS TIME). THE CF4811 AUTHORIZES REFUNDS, DRAWBACK PAYMENTS AND LIQUIDATION NOTIFICATIONS TO BE SENT TO AN AGENT OF THE IMPORTER OF RECORD. THE 4811 DATABASE SHOWS THE RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN IMPORTERS AND THEIR AGENTS CREATED BY CF4811 PROCESSING. IF AN ABI FILER TRANSMITS HIS IDENTIFICATION NUMBER IN THE 10 REC, POS 32-43, (IN ONE OF THE THREE ACCEPTABLE FORMATS - SEE ERROR MESSAGE 486) AND THERE IS NO PRE-EXISTING CF4811 ON FILE IN THE DATABASE, THIS WARNING MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED. **NOTE** - FOR RECONCILIATION ENTRIES, THE ABSENCE OF A CF4811 IS A REJECT CONDITION.
AAS: COUNTRY/CASE NUMBER MISMATCH

THE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN IN REC 40, POS 6-7, DOES NOT MATCH THE COUNTRY ASSOCIATED WITH THE THREE DIGIT COUNTRY CODE IN THE COUNTERVAILING CASE NUMBER (REC 60, POS 13-15) OR THE ANTIDUMPING CASE NUMBER (POS 33-35).
2A7: CARGO RELEASE DATA NOT ON FILE

THIS MESSAGE GENERALLY INDICATES A PROBLEM IN THE CREATION OF CARGO SELECTIVITY RECORDS FROM FILER'S INPUT. EXAMPLE: A FILER SENT IN SEVERAL ENTRIES USING BORDER CARGO RELEASE (APPLICATION HN). BEFORE ABI COULD COMPLETE THE PROCESSING OF THE ENTRIES, THE FILER'S SYSTEM SENT THE SAME ENTRIES AGAIN (WITHIN 12 SECONDS OF THE FIRST TRANSMISSION). THIS DUPLICATION CAUSED DATABASE (DB) ERRORS ON THOSE ENTRIES THAT WERE BEING PROCESSED AT THE INSTANT THE SECOND ITERATION OF THE SAME ENTRY NUMBER REACHED THE MAINFRAME. THE SECOND SET OF ENTRIES HAD PROCESSING DONE, BUT NO ON-LINE RECORDS WERE CREATED. THE ERROR MESSAGE ABOVE WAS CREATED AND ATTACHED TO THE SECOND SET OF ENTRY NUMBERS. THE SOLUTION, IN ALMOST ALL CASES, IS FOR THE FILER TO TRANSMIT ONLY ONCE AND TO WAIT FOR RESULTS BEFORE RE-SUBMITTING DATA FOR THE SAME ENTRY NUMBER.   
BRT: 'R15' IMPRT ENTRY SOURCE REQUIRED

THE IMPORT ENTRY SOURCE INDICATOR IN THE ABI 'R15' RECORD FOR RECONCILIATION MUST BE '1' (OTHER), '2' (PUERTO RICO), OR '3' (U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS).
