FEI NOT FOUND ON ACS |
THIS MESSAGE OCCURS WHEN A FILER QUERIES ABI TO DETERMINE WHETHER AN FDA ESTABLISHMENT NUMBER (FEI) IS ON FILE. ALL TWELVE NUMBERS MUST BE USED INCLUDING LEADING ZEROS. THE FILER USES THE FDPP-10 RECORD SHOWN ON PAGE OGQ-14 OF THE CATAIR WITH A "Q" IN THE ACTION CODE. THIS MESSAGE IS RETURNED WHEN THE FEI NUMBER QUERIED IS NOT FOUND IN ACS. A COMMON REASON IS BECAUSE THE FILER IS NOT QUERYING ALL 12 NUMBERS. THEY SHOULD RESEND THE QUERY USING ALL NUMBERS INCLUDING LEADING ZEROS. |

VPL: |
IMPRT ENTRY NOT IN CUSTOMS STATUS |
THIS ERROR MESSAGE OCCURS IN THE NAFTA DUTY DEFERRAL MODULE. THE IMPORT ENTRY NUMBER, SENT IN THE D10 RECORD, POSITIONS 20-27 MUST BE RESIDENT ON THE ENTRY SUMMARY HEADER FILE. |

FW 3-177: LICENSE NOT ON FILE |
THE LICENSE NUMBER WHICH IS TRANSMITTED IN THE FW02 RECORD, POS 45-50 MUST BE RESIDENT IN THE FWL FILE. THE LICENSE NUMBER IS ISSUED BY FSW TO IMPORTERS IMPORT OVER $25,000 ANNUALLY OF MERCHANDISE THAT IS SUBJECT TO FWS. CUSTOMS DOES NOT TRACK CUMULATIVE VALUES. THIS IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF FWS. FWS UP- LOADS THE U.S. LICENSE INFORMATION TO ACS ONCE A WEEK.

DATA REPLACED WITH WARNINGS |
THIS IS AN ABI OUTPUT MESSAGE THAT IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO A CARGO
RELEASE INPUT TRANSMISSION (APPLICATION HI). IT WILL ALWAYS BE ACCOMPANIED
BY ANOTHER SPECIFIC MESSAGE THAT DESCRIBES THE ELEMENT THAT GENERATED THE
WARNING MESSAGE ('CONSIGNEE IS FOREIGN BASED' IS AN EXAMPLE). THIS MESSAGE
WILL OCCUR WHEN THE FILER TRANSMITS ACTION CODE 'R' IN THE H1 RECORD, POSITION 3 |
VN8: |
FLR CANNOT VARY IN B=>Y BLOCK |
THIS ERROR INDICATES THAT THE FILER CODE SENT ON THIS CLAIM OR CLAIMS DIFFERS FROM THAT OF THE FILER SENDING THE DATA. THIS ERROR RARELY OCCURS WITH THE DISKETTE, SINCE USCS IS SUBMITTING THE DATA FOR THE FILER. IT CAN OCCUR WITH ABI, FOR EXAMPLE, WHERE A FILER MAY BE SENDING DATA FOR THEIR 3901 OFFICE AND INADVERTENTLY INCLUDES A 5301 OFFICE CLAIM. FOR RECONCILIATION, THIS MEANS THAT THE FILER IN THE 'B' RECORD DIFFERS FROM THE FILER IN THE 'R10' RECORD. |
THIS ERROR MESSAGE OCCURS IN THE NAFTA DUTY DEFERRAL MODULE. THE IE DATE IS SENT IN THE D03 RECORD, POSITIONS 16-21. THIS DATE MUST BE IN VALID MMDDYY FORMAT.

THIS MESSAGE OCCURS WHEN AN ABI FILER SENDS AN ANTIDUMPING OR COUNTERVAILING CASE NUMBER THAT IS INVALID. CASE NUMBERS ARE FORMATTTED AS FOLLOWS: A = ANTIDUMPING (OR C FOR COUNTERVAILING) CCC = CCC = FIRST THREE DIGITS OF THE COUNTRY CODE (FROM THE RFJ FILE). NNN = A SPECIFIC MANUFUCTURER WITHING THE CASE (OR 000 IF NOT SPECIFIC). IF, FOR EXAMPLE, A 'B' WAS SENT IN THE FIRST POSITION OR '###' WAS SENT IN THE NNN POSITIONS, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WOULD BE GENERATED. |
739: |
ADDITIONAL TARIFF NBRS REQUIRED |
THERE CAN BE SEVERAL CAUSES FOR THIS ERROR MESSAGE. IN GENERAL, THE MESSAGE INDICATES THAT ANOTHER TARIFF NUMBER IS A REQUIRED ASSOCIATION WITH THE ENTRY LINE TARIFF NUMBER IN QUESTION (50 REC, POS 3-14). SOME COMMON EXAMPLES ARE: -- 98020040, 50, 60, OR 80 WITHOUT A SECOND TARIFF NUMBER WHICH DESCRIBES THE ARTICLE BEING REPAIRED, ALTERED,OR ASSEMBLED. -- SOME WEARING APPAREL ENSEMBLES WHICH REQUIRE THE ACTUAL ARTICLE OF CLOTHING IN ADDITION TO THE ENSEMBLE HTS. -- WATCHES/CLOCKS, IN WHICH THE MOVEMENT, CASE, BAND, AND BATTERY MAY BE REQUIRED. -- TIB TARIFF NUMBERS IN CHAPTER 9813, WHICH REQUIRE THE IMPORTED ARTICLE'S TARIFF NUMBER. |

STMT BRANCH/BROKER MISMATCH |
THIS MESSAGE OCCCURS WHEN A FILER SENDS A STATEMENT BRANCH CODE IN POSITIONS 49-50 OF THE EI 20 RECORD ALONG WITH A STATEMENT INDICATOR AND STATEMENT DATE BUT THE BRANCH CODE HAS NOT BEEN SET TO OPERATIONAL IN THE ABE FILE. ALSO, IF THE FILER HAS BEEN SET TO 'Y' FOR BRANCH ON THE ABI RPOFILE RECORD, BUT THEN NEGLECTS TO INCLUDE A BRANCH DESIGNATION IN THE 20 RECORD (POS 49-50), THIS MESSAGE WILL OCCUR. IN A RECONILIATION ENTRY, THE R17 REC, POS 11-12, MUST REFLECT A CLIENT BRANCH DESIGNATION IF THE ABEI RECORD IS SET TO 'Y' FOR THIS FEATURE. THIS MESSAGE WILL ALSO OCCUR IF THE FILER USES THE 'STATEMENT ADD/DELTE' APPLICATION (HP) AND SENDS BRANCH DESIGNATION IN POS 25-26. |
FILERS WHO USE APPLICATION HI TO TRANSMIT CARGO RELEASE DATA MAY USE BOND TYPE CODE "8" (CONTINUOUS BOND) OR "9" (SINGLE TRANSACTION BOND). BOND TYPES ARE TRANSMITTED IN THE H1 REC, POS 40. IF BOND TYPE 9 IS ELECTED, THE FILER IS REQUIRED TO TRANSMIT A SURETY CODE (H1 REC, POS 71-73). IF THE SURETY CODE TRANSMITTED IS IN "REVOKED" STATUS, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT. |
