IF THE FILER SENDS A QUANTITY IN THE SUMMARY INPUT (EI APPLICATION, REC 22, POS 51-58) AND DOES NOT ALSO INCLUDE A UNIT OF MEASURE (REC 22, POS 51-58) THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED.

THE FIRST UNIT OF MEASURE IN POS 19-21 IS OPTIONAL. IF THE SECOND UNIT OF MEASURE, POS 37-39, IS TRANSMITTED WITHOUT A SECOND QUANTITY IN POS 22-26, THIS ERROR MESSAGE IS GENERATED.
