THIS ERROR MESSAGE OCCURS WHEN THE FILER SENDS A TARIFF LINE WHERE THE HARMONIZED NUMBER IS CODED FD1(FDA MAY BE REQUIRED) IN THE TARIFF FILE BUT NEITHER FDA INFORMATION (RECS FD01-FD05) NOR A DISCLAIM (FD0 IN REC OA, POS 5-7) WAS SENT.
VBJ: FW 3-177: QUANTITY MUST BE > 0

THE FISH AND WILDLIFE QUANTITY (REC FW03, POS 5-16) IS MANDATORY EVEN IF IDENTICAL TO THE QUANTITY ASSOCIATED WITH THE TARIFF NUMBER. THIS FIELD CANNOT BE SPACE FILLED OR ZERO FILLED.
029: INVALID FOREIGN PORT CODE

THE FOREIGN PORT CODE (AKA SCHEDULE K) NUMBER HAS BEEN OMITTED, IS IN IMPROPER FORMAT OR NOT ON THE FOREIGN PORT CODE FILE. CHECK THE RFDL FILE USING THE THREE DIGIT COUNTRY CODE FOUND IN THE RFJL FILE. THE PROPER FORMAT IS A FIVE-DIGIT NUMERIC. IF MODE OF TRANSPORTATION IS 12, THEN THE FOREIGN PORT CODE MUST BE FROM A PORT IN EITHER MEXICO OR CANADA.
8WA: NO ENTRY EXISTS OR ENTRY CLOSED

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO A BILL OF LADING UPDATE TRASNMISSION. IF THE FILER ATTEMPTS TO SEND APPLICATION LN AGAINST AN ENTRY NUMBER FOR WHICH NO PROVISIONAL SELECTIVITY STATUS HAS BEEN ISSUED BY ABI, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED. MOST OF THE TIME, ERROR MESSAGE 8WB, ENTRY BELONGS TO ANOTHER DD/PP, WILL ALSO BE GENERATED. **NOTE** - THIS MESSAGE CAN ALSO APPLY TO OTHER APPLICATIONS WHICH INVOLVE AN ENTRY NUMBER THAT IS NOT RESIDENT ON THE ENTRY OR SELECTIVITY DATABASES. **NOTE** THIS ERROR MESSAGE ALSO APPLIES TO A FILER'S ATTEMPT TO SEND A TIB EXTENSION REQUEST AFTER THE DATE THAT THE TIB ENTRY SHOWS AS 'CLOSED' PER THE ENTRY RECORD.
BRX: EARLIEST IMPRT DATE MUST = SPACES

RECONCILIATION: WHEN THE R10 ISSUE CODE IS NOT = 'NF', THE R10 EARLIEST IMP DATE MUST = SPACES. 
RBQ: RECONCILIATION DDPP NOT FOUND

THIS MESSAGE MEANS THAT THE FILER HAS USED AN IMPOSSIBLE DDPP IN THE RECON SUMMARY TRANSMISSION VIA ABI. 
EJU: ITEM AMT MUST=UNIT PRCXNO PRC UNT

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN AUTOMATED INVOICE TRANSACTION (APPLICATION CI). THE C33 RECORD ENABLES THE FILER TO REPORT NUMBER OF ITEMS IMPORTED, COST PER ITEM AND TOTAL COST FOR THE ITEM, AMONG OTHER ELEMENTS. IF THE NUMBER OF PRICING UNITS, WHEN MULTIPLIED BY THE PRICE PER UNIT, DOES NOT EQUAL THE "ITEM AMOUNT" TOTAL, REPORTED IN POS 37-51 OF THIS RECORD, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED. THE FIGURE SENT TO ABI CAN VARY BY UP TO, BUT NOT OVER, $1 (PLUS OR MINUS) FROM THE CALCULATED AMOUNT FOR "ITEM AMOUNT" TO BE ACCEPTABLE TO ABI.
Q06: STATEMENT NOT ON FILE

EITHER THE STATEMENT NUMBER GIVEN IN POSITIONS 15 THROUGH 24 OF THE QT RECORD CANNOT BE FOUND ON THE DSA FILE OR THE STATEMENT NUMBER WAS NOT RIGHT JUSTIFIED WITH A ZERO IN POSITION 14. WHEN CUSTOMS BILLS ARE AVAILABLE FOR PAYMENT THROUGH ACH, POSITION 14 WILL BE CHANGED TO ACCEPT OTHER NUMBERS. THE MOST COMMON REASON FOR THIS MESSAGE IS THAT ALL ENTRIES ORIGINALLY LISTED ON THE STATEMENT HAVE BEEN DELETED, EITHER BY THE FILER OR BY CUSTOMS. ONCE ALL ENTRIES ARE REMOVED FROM THE STATEMENT, THE STATEMENT NUMBER DROPS OUT OF THE SYSTEM AND CANNOT BE USED IN AN ACH PAYMENT TRANSACTION.
VNF: FD 701: NO BASE UNIT REPORTED

IF A FILER SENDS QUANTITY/UOM (UNIT OF MEASURE) INFORMATION (REC FD02) FOR AN FDA LINE, THE UOM MUST BE ONE OF THE FDA BASE UNITS LISTED ON PAGE OG-31 OF THE CATAIR IF ONLY ONE QUANTITY/UOM IS SENT. IF MORE THAN ONE QUANTITY/UOM IS SENT, THE LAST ONE MUST BE A BASE UNIT AND MUST BE A VALID ONE.
95W: 52 REC - 'HK' SWPM IND INVALID

THE REQUIRED SOLID WOOD PACKING MATERIAL INDICATOR MUST BE '1' OR '2'. 
RB9: RECON/IMPORT SURETY MISMATCH

THE SURETY CODE ON THE RECONCILIATION SUMMARY DOES NOT MATCH THE SURETY CODE ON ONE OR MORE OF THE ASSOCIATED IMPORT ENTRIES. ALL IMPORT ENTRIES AND THE RECON SUMMARY MUST HAVE THE SAME SURETY CODE. (IF THE IMPORTER NUMBER IDENTIFIED IN THE RECON AND IMPORT ENTRIES HAS CHANGED SURETY COMPANIES DURING THE PERIOD COVERED BY THE RECON ENTRY, IT WILL BE NECESSARY FOR THE FILER TO FILE AT LEAST TWO RECON ENTRIES. THIS IS THE ONLY WAY TO MAINTAIN THE CORRELATION BETWEEN THE SURETY SHOWN IN THE R10 REC, POS 32-34 AND THE SURETY IDENTIFED ON EACH IMPORT ENTRY).
27J: *CENSUS* OR-AGR CHARGES/VALUE

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED ON ENTRY SUMMARY INPUT TRANSACATIONS WHEN THE LINE ITEM CHARGES (40 REC, POS 48-57) DIVIDED BY THE LINE ITEM VALUE (40 REC, POS 8-17) EXCEED A STATED PERCENTAGE. IF THE RATIO BETWEEN THE CHARGES AND VALUE EXCEEDS THE PERCENTAGE SHOWN ON TARIFF/CENSUS DATABASE BY MORE THAN 300 PERCENT, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED. (EXAMPLE: VALUE IS $400 FOR TARIFF 8541402000 AND THE CHARGES ARE $100. THIS IS A 25% RATIO. THE RECORD FOR THE TARIFF NUMBER SHOWS 7% AS THE UPPER LIMIT. 7% OF $400 IS $28. 300% OF THIS FIGURE WOULD BE $84. THEREFORE, CHARGES FROM $1 TO $84 WOULD NOT GENERATE THIS WARNING MESSAGE, BUT CHARGES OF $85 OR HIGHER WOULD.) FOR SHIPMENTS BY AIR, THE CHARGES IS SOMETIMES COMPARED TO THE GROSS WEIGHT (40 REC, POS18-27) AND THIS MESSAGE COULD BE GENERATED EVEN IN A CASE WHERE THE CHARGES/VALUE RATIO WAS BELOW 300% OF THE VALUE.

A POSITION VALUE MUST BE SPECIFIED FOR THE OPTIONAL POSITION/LENGTH PARAMETER WHEN A LENGTH IS SPECIFIED. 
AEY: 42 SENT; NOT REQUIRED

27E: *CENSUS* OR-HI VAL/QTY (1)TARIFF2

THE UNIT PRICE (VALUE/PRIMARY QUANTITY) IS NOT WITHIN SPECIFIC LIMITS  
14J: ENTERED UOM/CENSUS UOM MISMATCH

ENTERED UNIT OF MEASURE DOES NOT MATCH CENSUS UNIT OF MEASURE ON TARIFF FILE. THIS MESSAGE WILL BE ACCOMPANIED BY THE 15K "DUTY COMPUTATION NOT PERFORMED" ERROR MESSAGE. 
8VB: COMPUTER SITE INVALID FOR BLOCK

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO A TIB EXTENSION REQUEST (APPLICATION XN), ALTHOUGH IT MAY APPLY TO OTHER APPLICATIONS, AS WELL. IN THE INPUT RECORDS, THE XA RECORD CONTAINS A FIELD FOR THE DDPP OF THE SUMMARY FOR WHICH AN EXTENSION IS BEING REQUESTED. (POS 3-6). IF THAT FIELD IS LEFT BLANK, THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED. NOTE: THIS MESSAGE WILL ALSO OCCUR IF THE PORT CODE FIELD IN THE XA RECORD IS NOT IDENTICAL TO THE PORT OF ENTRY FOR THE ENTRY BEING EXTENDED.
461: PAY DUE DATE INVALID/CONFLICTING

THIS MESSAGE WILL RESULT IF THE FILER TRANSMITS A PAYMENT DUE DATE THAT IS AT LEAST ONE WORKING DAY IN THE FUTURE WHEN COMPARED TO THE ABI TRANSMISSION DATE. THE PAYMENT DUE DATE IS TRANSMITTED IN THE 30 RECORD, POS 54-59. 
27P: *CENSUS* MAXIMUM VALUE EXCEEDED

THE TOTAL LINE ITEM VALUE EXCEEDS 100,000,000 DOLLARS. THIS MAY BE NECESSARY WHEN THE CRITERIA MUST BE DIFFERENT FOR ACS/ABI THAN THE STATISTICAL EDITS AT CENSUS.
EJ1: TOTAL AMT OF INVOICE LINES WRONG

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN AUTOMATED INVOICE TRANSMISSION (APPLICATION CI). THE C84 REC, POS 4-18, IS WHERE THE TOTAL DOLLAR AMOUNT OF ALL THE INVOICE LINES ON THE INSTANT INVOICE IS REPORTED. THIS AMOUNT WILL INCLUDE THE ITEM AMOUNT TOTAL FROM EACH C33 REC, POS 37-51, PLUS OR MINUS THE APPROPRIATE ALLOWANCES OR CHARGES REPORTED IN ANY C17 OR C53 RECORD. THESE AMOUNTS ARE TOTALED AT THE FOUR-DECIMAL LEVEL AND THEN SHOULD BE ROUNDED TO TWO DECIMALS FOR INCLUSION IN THE C84 RECORD. IF THE FIGURE REPORTED IN THE C84 RECORD DOES NOT AGREE WITH THE OTHER TOTALS, THIS ERROR WILL BE GENERATED. THERE IS A $3.00 (PLUS OR MINUS) VARIATION ALLOWED BETWEEN THE C84 TOTAL AND THE TOTAL OF THE OTHER RECORDS.
Q18: PAYOR UNIT # NOT ON FILE

PAYOR UNIT # NOT DEFINED ON DATABASE - THE PAYOR UNIT NUMBER PROVIDED IN THE 'QT' RECORD IS NOT ASSIGNED TO THAT IMPORTER ON THE DATA FILE.
VF3: OGA DISCLAIMER NOT ALLOWED

AN EXAMPLE IS A TARIFF NUMBER CODED "FD1" OR "FW1". TARIFF NUMBERS CODED WITH AN INDICATOR "IS REQUIRED" (E.G. FD2, FW2) CANNOT BE DISCLAIMED.
