IF THE ENAI SCREEN SHOWS "ENT ACP NOT LIQ", THE FILER MAY NOT RETRANSMIT THE SUMMARY UNTIL THE SUMMARY IS PUT INTO A REJECTED STATUS. IF THE ENTRY NUMBER IS A DRAWBACK CLAIM THAT IS IN CUSTOMS STATUS AND THE FILER IS ATTEMPTING TO CHANGE THE DATA, THE DISKETTE WILL BE REJECTED AND CUSTOMS WILL MANUALLY PROCESS ANY CHANGES AS INDICATED ON THE PAPER CLAIM.
