38N: RESTRICTED COUNTRY

THE IMPORT RESTRICTION INDICATOR FOR THIS COUNTRY IS "1" ON THE COUNTRY CODE FILE. THIS INDICATES THAT THIS COUNTRY IS RESTRICTED FROM IMPORTING TO THE U.S. OR THAT THE COUNTRY'S CODE HAS BEEN RENDERED INACTIVE OR INVALID. SINCE THERE IS NO INACTIVE/INVALID CODE IN THE COUNTRY CODE FILE, THE ONLY WAY TO PREVENT USE IS BY MAKING THE COUNTRY "RESTRICTED". AN EXAMPLE OF THIS IS THE COUNTRY CODE 'SQ' FOR SLOVAKIA. EFFECTIVE 03/01/93, THIS COUNTRY CODE WAS NO LONGER VALID. IT CHANGED TO 'SK'. A FILER MIGHT BE MISLED BY THE "RESTRICTED" INDICATOR THEY RECEIVE BACK ON A QUERY OR BY THIS MESSAGE WHEN TRANSMITTING AN ENTRY AND RECEIVING A REJECT.

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.
