ABI Error Message

VAD: DT HS7:BOX NUMBER REQUIRED

IF MERCHANDISE IS SUBJECT TO DOT REPORTING, THE BOX NUMBER FROM THE HS-7 FORM IS A MANDATORY INPUT ELEMENT. IF THE BOX NUMBER IS NOT TRANSMITTED, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT. THE BOX NUMBER IS TRANSMITTED IN THE DT01 REC, POS 8-9.  
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."
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.
2G0: DUPLICATE IT/AWB/BL NUMBER

THIS MESSAGE APPLIES TO ENTRY SUMMARY INPUT (TRANSACTION ID = EI). THIS MESSAGE OCCURS WHEN A FILER SENDS MORE THAN ONE IT, AIRWAY BILL OR BILL OF LADING AND TWO OR MORE ARE DUPLICATES AND NOT DIFFERENTIATED BY A DIFFERENT B/L OR HOUSE BILL (IN THE CASE OF AN IT) OR DIFFERENT HOUSE OR SUBHOUSE BILL (IN THE CASE OF A AWB OR B/L). THE MOST COMMON CAUSE IS WHEN A FILER SENDS THE SAME BILL OF LADING/HOUSE BILL AND TRIES TO DIFFERENTIATE BY SENDING DIFFERENT QUANTITIES.
35P: LN TRANS NOT PERMITTED

LN TRANSACTION NOT PERMITTED WHILE DOCUMENT DISCREPANCY HOLD IS ON. 
95C: BOND PROD ACCT#MISSING/INVALID

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN ENTRY SUMMARY INPUT TRANSACTION (APPLICATION EI). IF A SUMMARY REPORTS A SINGLE TRANSACTION BOND (BOND CODE = 9), AND THE FILER TRANSMITS A 21 RECORD, THAT RECORD MUST CONTAIN A BOND PRODUCER IDENTIFICATION NUMBER IN POS 13-22. IF THAT FIELD IS BLANK, OR CONTAINS A LEADING SPACE, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT. AT THIS TIME (NOV 18, 1998), THERE ARE NO OTHER EDITS FOR THE DATA TRANSMITTED IN THIS FIELD (SUCH AS A FORMAT OF EIN, SSN OR USCS ASSIGNED NUMBER).
EJM: INVOICE ADDITIONAL AMOUNT WRONG

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONE TO AN AUTOMATED INVOICE TRANSMISSION (APPLICATION CI). THE C84 REC, POS 19-33, IS USED TO REPORT ANY ALLOWANCE OR CHARGES THAT SHOULD BE ADDED TO THE INVOICE AMOUNT TO REFLECT THE PROPER INVOICE TOTALS. THE C17 REC PROVIDES SIX TYPES OF ADJUSTMENTS (SEE PAGE AII-23 FOR THE VALID ALLOWANCE/CHARGE INDICATORS). IF ANY OF THESE TYPES EXCEPT "N" OR "D" ARE USED, THE AMOUNTS OF THESE ADJUSTMENTS, WHETHER ADDITIONS OR SUBTRACTIONS TO THE DUTIABLE TOTAL AMOUNT, ARE TRANSMITTED IN THE C18 RECORD. THE TOTAL OF THESE UPS OR DOWNS ARE TRANSMITTED IN THE C84 RECORD IN POS 19-33. IF THE TOTAL ADJUSTMENTS IS A NEGATIVE NUMBER, POS 34 OF THE C84 RECORD MUST BE AN "N". **NOTE** - THIS IS A HEADER LEVEL MESSAGE. IF ADJUSTMENTS ARE MADE AT THE INVOICE LINE LEVEL, THOSE TOTALS ARE NOT CARRIED FORWARD TO THE C84 RECORD.
8VZ: BILL DATA UPDATED AS REQUESTED

THIS MESSAGE IS AN "ERROR FREE" NOTIFICATION TO THE FILER THAT A BILL OF LADING UPDATE 'LN' TRANSACTION WAS SUCCESSFUL. A SUCCESSFUL BOL UPDATE MEANS THAT THE UPDATE INFORMATION HAS BEEN PASSED TO THE AMS CARRIER AND THAT THE SELECTIVITY FILE HAS BEEN UPDATED.
39B: INVALID DUTY FREE CLAIM

THIS MESSAGE WILL OCCUR IF THE FILER ATTEMPTS TO MAKE A DUTY-FREE CLAIM THAT IS NOT APPROPRIATE TO THE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN/COUNTRY OF EXPORT COMBINATION. FOR EXAMPLE, INSULAR POSSESSIONS (SPI "Y") ARE ENTITLED TO SHIP CARGO DUTY FREE TO THE UNITED STATES, BUT ONLY IF THE SHIPMENT COMES DIRECTLY FROM THE POSSESSION. THEREFORE, IF THE COUNTRY OF EXPORT (50 REC, POS 69-70) IS NOT IDENTICAL TO THE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN (40 REC, POS 6-7), AND THE FILER TRANSMITS "Y" IN POS 3 OF THE 50 RECORD, THIS ERROR WILL RESULT. THIS MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED IF SPI "Y" IS USED FOR AMERICAN GOODS RETURNED PRODUCTS (CHAPT 98010010NN), AS THESE ARTICLES ARE UNCONDITIONALLY FREE OF DUTY AND THEREFORE DO NOT REQUIRE A SPECIAL PROGRAM IN ORDER TO CLAIM DUTY-FREE STATUS.
VM1: HLN: IMP.PROMPT LITERAL REQUIRED

THE INPUT PROMPT LITERAL IS A REQUIRED FIELD. THIS IS THE LANGUAGE THAT WILL APPEAR NEXT TO THE INPUT FIELD AT THE BOTTOM OF THE LOCATE SCREEN, WHICH THE OPERATOR CAN USE OVERRIDE THE SELECTION CRITERIA FOR THE LOCATE. 
EIE: INVALID TYP SHIPPING/PACKING UNIT

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN AUTOMATED INVOICE TRANSACTION (APPLICATION CI). THE C05 REC, POS 19-23, PROVIDES SPACE TO REPORT A SHIPPING UNIT TYPE. VALID SHIPPING UNIT TYPES ARE LISTED IN APPENDIX B TO THE CATAIR, PAGES B-22 TO B-23. IF THE SHIPPING UNIT TYPE CODE TRANSMITTED IN THE C05 RECORD DOES NOT MATCH ONE OF THE SHIPPING UNIT TYPE CODES LISTED IN APPENDIX B, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED.

VLX: DRAWBACK CM/CD CODE INVALID

VPZ: D31 RECORD REQUIRED

THIS ERROR MESSAGE OCCURS IN THE NAFTA DUTY DEFERRAL MODULE. THE D31 RECORD SPECIFIES THE ADD OR CVD BONDED OR PAYABLE AND TOTAL DUTIES. IF A D11 RECORD, WHICH DETAILS THE ADD OR CVD ENTRY SUMMARY INFORMATION, IS SENT, THE D31 RECORD IS REQUIRED.
HP1: REJECTED STATUS-SINGLE PAY ONLY

IF AN ENTRY, OTHERWISE SCHEDULED FOR PAYMENT BY STATEMENT/ACH PROCESSING, IS REJECTED BY CUSTOMS PRIOR TO PAYMENT, THE FILER CANNOT CHANGE THE PAYMENT DUE DATE VIA THE "STATEMENT ADD/DELETE" APPLICATION (HP). IF THE FILER ATTEMPTS TO USE HP, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT.

THIS ERROR IS ALSO GENERATED WHEN THE FIRST TARIFF NUMBER IS 99041030, THE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN IS 'CA' AND AN AGRICULTURE LICENSE IS ENTERED.
VLJ: DUP MFGR # ENCOUNTERED/CERT MFGR

THIS DRAWBACK MODULE ERROR MESSAGE MEANS THAT THE FILER HAS GIVEN US THE SAME CM NUMBER (CERT MFGR #) MORE THAN ONCE ON THE CLAIM. JUST AS WITH IMPORT ENTRIES CLAIMED ON THE DISKETTE OR VIA ABI, THE CM NUMBER SHOULD ONLY APPEAR ONCE WITH THE TOTAL DRAWBACK CLAIMED FOR THAT CM.
27E: *CENSUS* OR-HI VAL/QTY (1)TARIFF2

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.
FDL: NO FDA RECORD ON FILE FOR ENTRY

THIS MESSAGE OCCURS IN A FDA INTERFACE SITUATION WHEN A FILER ATTEMPTS TO SEND AN OTHER GOVERNMENT AGENCY CORRECTION ('CP') TRANSACTION FOR AN ENTRY THAT WAS NOT ORIGINALLY A FDA INTERFACE ENTRY. TYPICALLY IT INVOLVES A FILER SENDING AN ENTRY WITH NO REGULATED FDA TARIFF NUMBERS ON IT THEN ATTEMPTING TO SEND A 'CP' WITH THE FDA REGULATED TARIFF NUMBER(S). THE ONLY SOLUTION IS FOR CUSTOMS TO DO A PEN AND INK CHANGE TO THE ENTRY OR TO HAVE CUSTOMS DELETE THE ENTRY AND THE FILER THEN RESENDS THE CORRECT INFORMATION.

SIMILARLY, SEPARATE CARGO RELEASE INPUT TRANSACTIONS (APPLICATION IDENTIFIER HI) WHICH OMIT THE MOT (H1 REC, POS 32-33) WILL ALSO RECEIVE THIS ERROR MESSAGE, WHETHER OR NOT THE RELEASE CERTIFICATION CODE (H1 REC, POS 34) IS ALSO TRANSMITTED. (INFORMAL ENTRY SUMMARY INPUT WHICH DOES NOT REQUEST CARGO CERTIFICATION WILL BE ACCEPTED WITHOUT THE MOT).
