546:	EXISTING ENTRY IN CUSTOMS STATUS

THIS MESSAGE OCCURS WHEN A FILER ATTEMPTS TO TRANSMIT AN ENTRY SUMMARY TRANSACTION FOR AN ENTRY NUMBER THAT IS IN CUSTOMS STATUS. CUSTOMS STATUS MEANS THAT CUSTOMS HAS "PROCESSED" THE ENTRY. THE MOST COMMON SITUATION FOR THIS ERROR IS WHEN A PAYMENT HAS BEEN COLLECTED (BY CHECK, STATEMENT PROCESSING OR ACH) AND THE FILER ATTEMPTS TO RETRANSMIT THE SUMMARY DATA. ANOTHER COMMON CAUSE FOR THIS ERROR IS WHEN THE ENTRY NUMBER APPEARS ON A PRELIMINARY STATEMENT AND THE FILER ATTEMPTS TO CORRECT THE SUMMARY DATA WITHOUT FIRST REMOVING THE ENTRY FROM STATEMENT STATUS. IF THE ENAI SCREEN SHOWS "ENT ACP NOT LIQ", THE FILER MAY NOT RETRANSMIT THE SUMMARY UNTIL THE SUMMARY IS PUT INTO A REJECTED STATUS. IF THE ENTRY NUMBER IS A DRAWBACK CLAIM THAT IS IN CUSTOMS STATUS AND THE FILER IS ATTEMPTING TO CHANGE THE DATA, THE DISKETTE WILL BE REJECTED AND CUSTOMS WILL MANUALLY PROCESS ANY CHANGES AS INDICATED ON THE PAPER CLAIM. IF THE ENTRY NUMBER IS NOT A DRAWBACK CLAIM, BOTH THE CLAIM AND DISKETTE WILL BE RETURNED. ACCELERATED DRAWBACK WILL BE PAID UPON CORRECTION (IF NOT PREVIOUSLY PAID). ABI WILL REJECT THE TRANSMISSION.

52Z:	ENTRY/LINE SEQUENCE REJECTED

REFER TO ADMINISTRATIVE MESSAGE 98-0236, DATED 032098. IN SOME CASES THE ULTIMATE CONSIGNEE NAME AND ADDRESS APPLICATION (IJ) WAS CAUSING DATA BASE ERRORS WHEN THE NUMBER OF (I7) ENTRY NUMBER/LINE ITEM SEQUENCE RECORDS EXCEEDED THE LIMIT SET BY THE PROGRAM FOR A PARTICULAR NAME & ADDRESS I3 AND I4 RECORD SET. ALSO, IN SOME REJECT SITUATIONS THE ERROR MESSAGE "524 TRANSACTION DATA REJECTED" WAS DISPLAYING ERRONEOUSLY IN THE IB OUTPUT MESSAGES WHEN THE ENTIRE (IJ) APPLICATION WAS NOT REJECTED. TO ELIMINATE THE ABOVE SITUATIONS AND TO PROVIDE MORE ACCURATE INFORMATION WHEN ERRORS ARE DETECTED IN THE ULTIMATE CONSIGNEE NAME AND ADDRESS APPLICATION (IJ) TRANSMISSIONS, THIS ERROR MESSAGE AND 52Y "MAXIMUM (I7) RECORDS EXCEEDED" ARE GENERATED. BOTH THE 52Y AND 52Z MESSAGES WILL APPEAR AS (IB) OUTPUT RECORDS WHEN CUSTOMS DETERMINES THAT THE INFORMATION TRANSMITTED CANNOT BE ADDED TO THE DATABASE AS REQUESTED BY AN ABI FILER.
