ABI Error Message

1C6: DUPLICATE ADD ERROR

THIS DRAWBACK MODULE MESSAGE MEANS THAT THE IMPORT ENTRY CITED ON THE DRAWBACK DISKETTE WAS SHOWN MORE THAN ONCE. SINCE THE DISKETTE AND ABI TRANSMISSION ARE CLAIM SUMMARIES, FILERS ARE INSTRUCTED TO ONLY SHOW AN IMPORT ENTRY ONE TIME AND SUMMARIZE THE TOTAL CLAIMED AMOUNT FOR THAT ENTRY. ON THE LEGAL PAPER CLAIM, A SINGLE IMPORT ENTRY MAY BE SHOWN MANY TIMES (FOR EXAMPLE, WHEN THEY BREAK A CLAIM DOWN BY PART NUMBER), BUT ON THE DISKETTE IT CAN ONLY APPEAR ONCE.
40T: MX SPI REQUIRED

AN SPI OF 'MX' MUST BE ENTERED FOR TARIFF NUMBER 9802008055 
VPJ: CANADIAN TARIFF NBR INVALID

THIS MESSAGE OCCURS IN THE NAFTA DUTY DEFERRAL MODULE. THE NAFTA CTRY TARIFF NUMBER IS SENT IN POSITIONS 24-33 OF THE D20 RECORD AND MUST BE A VALID NUMBER.
BR2: ORIGINAL TAX MISMATCH (R90:R20)

VLH: CERT MFR TRAILER # OUT OF SEQUENC

THIS MESAGE MEANS THAT THE CERT MFR (CM) TRAILER SEQUENCE NUMBERS ARE OUT OF SEQUENCE IN THE DRAWBACK MODULE. NOTE THAT CONTRACT SEQUENCE NUMBERS ARE 01-99. IF ONLY 1 CONTRACT IS USED ON A CLAIM, THAT CONTRACT NUMBER SHOULD APPEAR IN THE CLAIM HEADER RECORD. THE CONTRACT TRAILER RECORD SHOULD NOT BE USED UNLESS THERE ARE MULTIPLE CONTRACTS ON A CLAIM. THE CONTRACT TRAILER COUNTER IS NOT A COUNT OF CONTRACTS, BUT IS A COUNT OF THE CONTRACT TRAILER RECORDS. IF ONLY ONE CONTRACT IS USED,THE COUNTER SHOULD BE 00,SINCE THERE WILL BE NO TRAILER RECORDS.IF 2 CONTRACTS THEN THERE WILL BE ONE CONTRACT TRAILER AND THE COUNT WILL BE 01. THREE CONTRACTS WOULD MEAN TWO TRAILERS AND THE COUNT WOULD BE 02, ETC.
523: ENTRY NBR MUST BE NUMERIC

IF FY PRIOR TO 1981, MUST BE LAST 2 DIGITS OF THE FY + 6 NUMBERS.  IF FY '81 THROUGH FY '86, MUST BE LAST 2 DIGITS OF THE FY, 6 NUMBERS, AND NUMERIC CHECK DIGIT.

THE MOST COMMON CAUSE IS WHEN A FILER SENDS THE SAME BILL OF LADING/HOUSE BILL AND TRIES TO DIFFERENTIATE BY SENDING DIFFERENT QUANTITIES.
CC7: DESCRIPTION REQUIRED

THIS MESSAGE IS GENERATED IN RESPONSE TO AN AUTOMATED INVOICE TRANSACTION (APPLICATION CI). THE CB1 RECORD IS USED TO REPORT ADDITIONAL MARKS AND NUMBERS AT THE INVOICE HEADER LEVEL WHEN THE CA1 RECORD DOES NOT PROVIDE SUFFICIENT SPACE TO COMPLETELY REPORT THE SHIPPING MARKS AND NUMBERS. IF THE CB1 RECORD IS TRANSMITTED, IT CANNOT BE BLANK OR THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE GENERATED.
VHJ: DT HS7: BOND (SURETY) NOT ON FILE

IF BOX 03 IS USED (REC. DT01, POS 8-9,) THE DOT BOND MUST BE REPRESENTED BY A VALID SURETY CODE FROM THE SURETY DATA FILE. ABI DOES NOT EDIT THE SURETY CODE IN THIS FIELD TO SEE IF IT MATCHES THE SURETY CODE IN THE 10 RECORD OF THE SUMMARY INPUT.
VHO: DT HS7: CONTRACT/STMNT CERT REQ'D

IF BOXES 2B, 06, 07, 08, OR 09 ARE INDICATED IN THE DT01 RECORD, POSITIONS 8-9, POSITION 36 OF THE DT01 RECORD MUST REFLECT A "Y". IF ANY OTHER BOX NUMBER ARE INDICATED, THIS FIELD MUST BE BLANK.

  OT PERMITTED ON STATEMENTS

THE EDIT THAT PRODUCES THIS MESSAGE ONLY APPLIES TO LICENSED BROKERS. IT IS NOT PERFORMED AGAINST FILERS WHO FILE THEIR OWN DRAWBACK CLAIMS. ACS KNOWS WHICH ARE NOT LICENSED. THE MESSAGE INDICATES THAT, WHILE THE FILER IS A LICENSED BROKER, THE FILER DOES NOT HAVE AN OPERATING PERMIT WITHIN THE REGION WHERE THE DRAWBACK CLAIM IS BEING FILED.
BRD: IMPORT ENTRY NOT SUBJECT TO RECON

THE IMPORT ENTRY GIVEN IN THE R20 RECORD IS NOT FLAGGED FOR RECONCILIATION, THEREFORE CANNOT HAVE A RECONCILIATION FILED AGAINST IT.

THE LUMBER PRODUCT MUST MEET BOTH CRITERIA, TARIFF NUMBER AND PROVINCE. THE LUMBER PERMIT NUMBER IS SENT IN POSITIONS 57-65 OF THE 51 RECORD.THIS MESSAGE OCCURS WHEN A LUMBER PERMIT NUMBER IS SENT FOR A TARIFF NUMBER THAT IS NOT IN THE ABOVE NAMED SUBHEADINGS OR FOR A TARIFF NUMBER IN THE SUBHEADINGS BUT NOT FROM ONE OF THE FOUR NAMED PROVINCES. THE ERROR MESSAGE IS SENT WITH THE 50 RECORD NOT THE 51 RECORD.
06N: RDP NOT AUTH FOR C/S CALL UAG

THIS MESSAGE OCCURS WHEN A FILER CERTIFIES FOR CARGO SELECTIVITY WHEN THE PORT OF ENTRY IS NOT OPERATIONAL FOR CARGO SELECTIVITY (THE DISTRICT-PORT RECORD FOR THE PORT SHOWS C/S = "N"). THIS ERROR REJECTS THE CERTIFICATION FOR CARGO SELECTIVITY PROCESSING. IT DOES NOT REJECT THE SUMMARY. THE FILER SHOULD VERIFY THAT THEY ARE USING THE PROPER PORT OF ENTRY. THIS PROBLEM OCCURS REGULARLY BETWEEN OAKLAND AND SAN FRANCISCO. OAKLAND (2811) IS THE CORRECT PORT OF UNLADING. THE PROPER PORT OF ENTRY FOR OAKLAND IS SAN FRANCISCO (2809). THE PROBLEM IS FIXED BY HAVING THE FILER RETRANSMIT WITH THE PROPER PORT OF ENTRY (IN THIS CASE, 2809) IF THE CORRECT PORT OF ENTRY IS NOT OPERATIONAL FOR CARGO SELECTIVITY, THE ENTRY MUST BE HANDLED NON-ABI.
0LK: VISA CATEGORY NUMBER INVALID

IF A TARIFF NUMBER IS SUBJECT TO QUOTA REPORTING OR MONITORING, IN MOST CASES A CATEGORY NUMBER WILL BE ASSOCIATED WITH THE TARIFF NUMBER. THE CATEGORY NUMBER CAN BE FOUND ON THE TARIFF FILE. WHEN AN ABI FILER TRANSMITS A TARIFF NUMBER THAT IS SUBJECT TO QUOTA-CLASS REPORTING, THE CATEGORY NUMBER MUST BE REPORTED IN THE 51 REC, POS 21-23. IF THE CATEGORY NUMBER IS OMITTED, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT. IN ADDITION, IF THE CATEGORY NUMBER FOR THE TARIFF NUMBER IN QUESTION IS NOT AN EXACT MATCH TO THE CATEGORY NUMBER FOUND ON THE HSA FILE, THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL ALSO BE GENERATED. (CATEGORY NUMBERS, AS TRANSMITTED BY ABI FILERS, MUST BE THREE NUMERIC CHARACTERS).
BRM: POSSIBLE FEE MISMATCH

THE ORIGINAL FEE AMOUNT FOR A GIVEN FEE CLASS CODE IN THE RECON'S 'R21' RECORD DOES NOT AGREE WITH WHAT USCS SHOWS AS BEING THE FEE AMOUNT FOR THAT CLASS CODE ON THE ORIGINAL IMPORT ENTRY. THIS MESSAGE USUALLY RESULTS WHEN ABI ATTEMPTS TO VERIFY THAT THE INDIVIDUAL FEE CLASS AMOUNTS ON THE IMPORT ENTRY AGREE WITH THE AMOUNTS REPORTED IN THE RECON ENTRY (R21 RECORD). IF THE IMPORT ENTRY HAS BEEN RED-LINED DURING THE LIQUIDATION PROCESS, THE USFI RECORD (WHERE FEES ARE DISPLAYED BY CLASS CODE AND AMOUNT) WILL BE BLANK AND THE LNLI RECORDS (ENTRY LINE DATA FOR THE IMPORT ENTRY) IS ALSO LIKELY TO BE BLANK. THUS ABI HAS NO FILE TO SEARCH TO VERIFY THE HMF OR MPF AMOUNT CLAIMED BY THE RECON FILER IN ITS R21 RECORD. THIS MESSAGE IS A WARNING, HOWEVER, AND WILL NOT, IN AND OF ITSELF, CAUSE A RECON ENTRY TO BE REJECTED.
ADH: ISSUER CODE/MOT CONFLICT

THIS ERROR MESSAGE IS GENERATED DURING ENTRY SUMMARY TRANSACTIONS. IF THE MOT IS 40 OR 41 AND THE ISSUER CODE OF THE MASTER BILL OF LADING REPORTED IN THE 22 RECORD, POSITIONS 70-73, IS NOT BLANK, THIS MESSAGE WILL OCCUR. ISSUER CODES ARE RESERVED FOR OCEAN-BORNE CARGO. IF THE FIELD IS LEFT BLANK FOR MOT 10 OR 11, ERROR MSG ADJ WILL RESULT. THIS MESSAGE ALSO OCCURS IN A MAIL MOT (MOT = 50) WHEN AN ISSUER CODE WAS SENT.
06J: UNLDNG PORT NOT = ENTRY PORT

UNLADING PORT IS NOT EQUAL TO THE ENTRY PORT; YET THIS ENTRY HAS NOT BEEN FLAGGED AS PAIRED CITIES. 
APQ: WITHDRAWAL REQ. IND. INVALID

A REQUEST TO WITHDRAW A PROTEST, CLAIM OR INTERVENTION, INDICATED BY 'W', MAY BE SUBMITTED AT ANY TIME UNTIL THE PROTEST OR CLAIM IS ADJUDICATED BY CUSTOMS. THE VALUE SUBMITTED IN THE WITHDRAWAL REQUEST FIELD, P10 REC, POS 66, MUST BE "W", OR MUST BE BLANK. ANY OTHER CHARACTER IN THIS FIELD WILL GENERATE THIS ERROR MESSAGE. 
AAM: MFR/SHIPPER ID INVALID ISO PREFX

THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL RESULT IF A SHIPMENT IDENTIFIES A MANUFACTURER IDENTIFICATION NUMBER (MID) INVOLVING A CANADIAN SHIPPER. VALID ISO PREFIXES FOR THESE SHIPMENTS ARE: XN (WHERE N= ONE OF THE 10 ALLOWABLE ALPHA CHARACTERS FOR THE 10 CANADIAN PROVINCES). IF THE SHIPMENT IN QUESTION DOES NOT INVOLVE CANADIAN GOODS, THE ISO COUNTRY PREFIX CODE MUST BE A VALID TWO-CHARACTER PREFIX FROM THE DATABASE. ERRORS IN THE CODE FOR NON-CANADIAN SHIPMENTS WILL GENERATE ERROR MESSAGE 0M9.
RB4: EXCESS/INVALID FEE COUNT

FOR RECONCILIATION, THE 'R20' ABI INPUT RECORD FEE COUNT IS EITHER NOT NUMERIC (INVALID) OR > 10 (EXCESS). IN OTHER WORDS, POS 78-79 OF THE R20 RECORD MUST SHOW A NUMERIC FIGURE WHICH EQUALS THE NUMBER OF FOLLOWING R21 RECORDS. IF ONE R21 RECORD FOLLOWS THE R20 RECORD, POS 78-79 WOULD BE "01", E.G. IF THE FILER SPACE FILLS THIS ELEMENT BUT TRANSMITS AN R21 RECORD, THIS MESSAGE WILL RESULT (THE 'INVALID' PART OF THE NARRATIVE). IF THE FILER TRANSMITS A FIGURE GREATER THAN '10', THIS MESSAGE WILL ALSO RESULT (THE 'EXCESS' PART OF THE MESSAGE). NOTE: IF THE ENTRY IS AN AGGREGATE RECON, AND NO R21 RECORDS ARE TRANSMITTED, THE FILER MUST STILL SHOW '00' IN POS 78-79 OF EACH R20 RECORD.
