ABI Error Message

VLU: TOT DRAWBACK TAX AMOUNT INVALID

THIS DRAWBACK MODULE ERROR MESSAGE MEANS THAT THE TOTAL CLAIMED TAX DOES NOT ADD UP FROM THE DESIGNATED IMPORTS/CM'S. ACS TOTALS ALL IMPORT ENTRY AND CM CLAIMED AMOUNTS AND COMPARES THEM TO THE TOTAL THAT THE FILER GAVE IN THE DISKETTE IN THE 'CT' TRAILER RECORD. NOTE: THERE IS NOW A TOLERANCE OF + OR - $1.00 ALLOWED ON THE TOTAL BEFORE THIS MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED.
4A0: INVALID ACTION CODE

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO A CARGO RELEASE DATA INPUT TRANSACTION (APPLICATION HI). THE H1 RECORD, POS 3 MUST REFLECT ONE OF THREE ACTION CODES: A (ADD) D (DELETE) OR R (REPLACE). IF ANY OTHER CHARACTER, OR A BLANK, IS TRANSMITTED IN THIS FIELD, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED.
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.
BRE: INVALID NAFTA ISSUE

FILER HAS ATTEMPTED TO FILE A RECON FOR A NAFTA ISSUE AGAINST AN IMPORT ENTRY THAT IS NOT FLAGGED FOR NAFTA RECONCILIATION. 
VDK: CALCULATED TIB DT LT CURRENT DATE

THIS MESSAGE OCCURS ONLY IN A TIB (ENTRY TYPE 23) SITUATION WHEN THE TIB TARIFF NUMBER (E.G. 98130075), ACCORDING TO US HEADNOTE 1 TO THE RELEVANT SUBCHAPTER CANNOT BE EXTENDED AND MUST BE EXPORTED WITHIN 6 MONTHS AND THE "TIB DATE OF ENTRY" IS MORE THAN SIX MONTHS OLDER THAN THE CURRENT DATE.
VHC: FD 701:PHONE NBR MUST BE NUMERIC

THIS ERROR MESSAGE OCCURS WHEN NON-NUMERIC CHARACTERS ARE INPUT INTO THE "CONTACT PHONE NUMBER" FIELD, REC FD04, POS 29-38. THIS IS AN OPTIONAL FIELD. A COMMON PROBLEM IS THAT THE USER WILL SEND A "CONTACT NAME" (REC FD04 POS 19-28) THAT IS LONGER THAN 10 CHARACTERS AND THE FILER'S PROGRAM ALLOWS THE EXTRA CHARACTERS TO SPILL OVER INTO THE PHONE NUMBER FIELD. ALSO, PHONE NUMBERS MUST INCLUDE THE AREA CODE. IF THIS PART OF THE PHONE NUMBER ELEMENT IS LEFT BLANK, ERROR VHC ALSO RESULTS.
4AC: IN-BOND NUMBER NOT FOUND

THIS MESSAGE INDICATES THAT THE FILER PROVIDED AN INBOND NUMBER IN HIS EI (ENTRY SUMMARY) TRANSACTION, BUT DID NOT INCLUDE A MASTER BILL NUMBER (OR AIR WAYBILL) IN THE 22 RECORD. AS OF SEP 28, 1998, THE REVISED INBOND PROGRAM REQUIRES INBOND NUMBERS TO BE ACCOMPANIED BY BILL NUMBERS. THIS ERROR SHOULD NOT OCCUR FOR TRUCK SHIPMENTS (MOT 30 OR 31), BUT, AS OF SEP 30, 1998, IF THE BILL OF LADING FIELD DOES NOT CONTAIN A MINIMUM OF 5 CHARACTERS, THIS MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED.
4KQ: CERTIFICATE NUMBER NOT REQUIRED

THE COTTON EXEMPTION NUMBER IS SENT IN POSITIONS 48-56 OF THE 51 RECORD. THIS MESSAGE OCCURS WHEN AN EXEMPTION CERTIFICATE NUMBER IS SENT FOR A TARIFF NUMBER ON A LINE WHEN IT DOES NOT REQUIRE IT.
VGT: FD 701: UOM NOT ALLOWED W/O QTY

IN THE FDA INTERFACE A UOM (UNIT OF MEASURE), REC FD02, POS 15-18, 29-32, 43-46I, 57-60, 71-74 AND REC FD04, POS 15-18 IS NOT ACCEPTED UNLESS IT IS TRANSMITTED WITH A QUANTITY. THE REVERSE IS ALSO TRUE, A QUANTITY IS NOT ALLOWED WITHOUT A UNIT OF MEASURE.
VOK: INVALID REMOTE PROC DDPP

IN A REMOTE ENTRY TRANSACTION, THE PROCESSING DDPP SENT IN THE 'B' RECORD, POSITIONS 4-7, MUST BE A VALID DDPP IN THE DISTRICT/PORT FILE. 
929: DUTY DOES NOT MATCH

THE DUTY AMOUNT INPUT DOES NOT MATCH THE TOTAL OF ALL PAID DUTY AMOUNTS FOR THIS ENTRY. 
VNX: IMPORT SUMM DATE MUST BE > SPACES

THIS DRAWBACK MODULE ERROR MESSAGE MEANS THAT THERE IS NO ENTRY SUMMARY DATE IN ACS FOR THE DESIGNATED IMPORT. IN ALL PROBABILITY, THIS MESSAGE WILL APPEAR IN CONJUNCTION WITH MESSAGE VNW.
2CN: SURETY NOT VALID FOR BOND TYPE

THIS MESSAGE INDICATES THAT THE SURETY SENT BY THE DRAWBACK CLAIMANT IS NOT AUTHORIZED TO WRITE A TYPE 1A BOND. THIS MESSAGE WILL ALSO RESULT IF A FILER ATTEMPTS TO TRANSMIT ENTRY TYPE 51 FOR EMERGENCY WAR MATERIALS AND THE IMPORTER IDENTIFIED IN THE ENTRY OR ENTRY SUMMARY HAS A CONTINUOUS BOND, BUT IS NOT A GOVERNMENT IMPORTER.
VOQ: DESIGNATED EXAM SITE UNKNOWN

THE DESIGNATED EXAM SITE, EI 30 RECORD, POSITIONS 40-43, SENT IN A REMOTE FILING TRANSACTION, IS NOT A DDPP ON THE DISTRICT/PORT FILE.
ARY: NOTIFY DP/FLR/OFFICE INVALID

THE DDPP/FILER CODE/OFFICE CODE COMBINATION IS INVALID, OR HAS BEEN TRANSMITTED IN THE WRONG POSITIONS OF THE P50 RECORD. 
ARP: NOTIFY SUB ALREADY ON FILE

THE ID NUMBER OF THE SUBSTITUTE 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. 
ARV: REFUND PARTY ID NBR REQUIRED

A VALID IRS OR USCS ASSIGNED ID NUMBER PRESENT ON THE USCS IMPORTER DATABASIS REQUIRED FOR ALL REFUND C/O PARTY TYPES. 
VNB: FD 701:FORM REQUIRED

THIS ERROR MESSAGE OCCURS WHEN THE FILER SENDS A TARIFF NUMBER LINE WHERE THE HARMONIZED NUMBER IS CODED FD2 (FDA DATA IS REQUIRED) IN THE HSA FILE BUT FDA INFORMATION (RECS FD01-FD05) HAS NOT BEEN TRANSMITTED. A DISCLAIM WOULD NOT BE ALLOWED.
BRP: FEE COUNT MISMATCH (R20:R21)

THE COUNT GIVEN IN THE 'R20' RECORD FOR THE FEE TRAILER COUNTER DOES NOT MATCH THE COUNT FOR THE NUMBER OF 'R21' FEE RECORDS SUBMITTED FOR RECONCILIATION VIA ABI.
16E: VALUE/QUANTITY INVALID

THE UNIT VALUE OF THE ITEM REPORTED UNDER THIS TARIFF NUMBER DOES NOT FALL IN THE RANGE STATED BY THE TARIFF NUMBER'S DESCRIPTION IN THE HARMONIZED TARIFF RECORDS. AS AS EXAMPLE, TARIFF NUMBER 6402195030 IS FOR CERTAIN FOOTWEAR VALUED OVER $3.00 PER PAIR, BUT NOT OVER $6.50 PER PAIR. IF A SHIPMENT REPORTS 100 PAIRS AT A TOTAL VALUE OF $285, THIS MESSAGE WILL RESULT, AS THE UNIT PRICE PER PAIR OF SHOES WOULD BE $2.85. THE FILER SHOULD REVERIFY THAT THE CORRECT VALUE AND QUANTITY IS BEING REPORTED AND, IF SO, SELECT A TARIFF NUMBER THAT CORRECTLY DESCRIBES THE VALUE/QUANTITY RANGE FOR THE IMPORTATION.
AP5: AFR REQUEST DATA REJECTED

FURTHER REVIEW CAN BE APPLIED FOR ONLY AT TIME OF INITIAL FILING OR BY MAKING AN AMENDMENT DURING ANY REMAINING PORTION OF THE 90 DAY PROTEST FILING PERIOD.
