THIS MESSAGE ALSO APPLIES TO OTHER APPLICATIONS, AS DESCRIBED IN THE CATAIR, FOR WHICH RECORDS ARE TRANSMITTED THAT ARE EITHER OUT OF PROPER SEQUENCE, OR ARE NOT PART OF THE APPLICATION. FOR EXAMPLE, TRANSMITTING THE OGA CORRECTION APPLICATION (CODE CP) WITH FCC DATA WILL CAUSE THIS ERROR MESSAGE. OMITTING THE CARRIER CODE IN THE 01 RECORD FOR A BORDER CARGO RELEASE INPUT (HN) FOR AN AMS PORT WILL GET THIS MESSAGE. MOST OTHER SITUATIONS THAT RESULT IN THIS ERROR ARE FAIRLY STRAIGHTFORWARD AS TO WHICH RECORDS MAY BE MISSING OR SENT IN ERROR. FOR RECON ENTRIES, CHECK EVERY R20 RECORD THAT HAS A FOLLOWING R21 RECORD. THERE MUST BE A TRAILER COUNTER IN POS 78-79 OF THE R20 WHICH SHOWS HOW MANY R21'S ARE BEING INCLUDED FOR THE ENTRY IN THE R20. IF THE R20 SHOWS '01' IN POS 78-79, THERE MUST BE ONLY 1 R21 RECORD, AND SO ON. THE REVERSE IS TRUE, AS WELL: IF NO R21 REC, THE R20 MUST SHOW '00'.
