ABI Error Message

DDC:	NAFTA/OTH RECONCILIATN NOT FILED

A DRAWBACK CLAIM CANNOT BE FILED AGAINST AN IMPORT ENTRY THAT HAS BEEN FLAGGED FOR RECONCILIATION UNTIL SUCH TIME AS THE RECONCILIATION SUMMARY HAS BEEN FILED AND PAID. AT THE TIME OF LIQUIDATION, THIS MESSAGE IS ALSO USED TO ALERT THE USER THAT THE TYPE '01', '02', OR '06' ENTRY IS FLAGGED FOR BOTH NAFTA AND OTHER RECONCILIATION, BUT THE RECONCILIATION HAS NOT YET BEEN FILED. THIS MESSAGE IS OVERRIDEABLE AT LIQUIDATION.

Q08:	'QT' AMT PAID NOT = STATEMENT AMT

THE "PAYMENT AMOUNT" SUBMITTED ON THE QT RECORD (POS 25-34) DOES NOT EQUAL "AMT DUE" COLUMN ON THE DATA FILE FOR THE STATEMENT NUMBER TRANSMITTED. IN MOST CASES, THIS RESULTS WHEN THE FILER ATTEMPTS TO PAY A STATEMENT WITH AN AMOUNT THAT IS LOWER THAN THE ACTUAL AMOUNT BECAUSE THE FILER ASSUMED THAT HIS REMOVAL OF ONE OR MORE ENTRIES FROM THE STATEMENT WAS SUCCESSFULLY TRANSMITTED TO ABI VIA APPLICATION HP (STATEMENT ADD/DELETE). IF THE ACH PAYMENT REJECTS, THE FILER SHOULD RETRANSMIT THE HP FOR THE ENTRY(S) TO BE REMOVED AND ONLY WHEN A SUCCESSFUL ACKNOWLEDGEMENT IS RECEIVED FROM ABI SHOULD THE ACH PAYMENT BE TRANSMITTED.

B24:	LOWER CASE LETTERS FIRM/ADDR/CITY

IF THE FILER SPACE FILLS THIS ELEMENT BUT TRANSMITS AN R21 RECORD, THIS MESSAGE WILL RESULT (THE 'INVALID' PART OF THE NARRATIVE). IF THE FILER TRANSMITS A FIGURE GREATER THAN '10', THIS MESSAGE WILL ALSO RESULT (THE 'EXCESS' PART OF THE MESSAGE). NOTE: IF THE ENTRY IS AN AGGREGATE RECON, AND NO R21 RECORDS ARE TRANSMITTED, THE FILER MUST STILL SHOW '00' IN POS 78-79 OF EACH R20 RECORD.
