U.S. Customs and Border Protection would like to remind all users that when running Aggregate and Detail Entry Summary Account Management reports if you change the default “Include Entries with no Entry Date” from “No” to “Yes” data from test district port code 8888 may be included in the report. At this time ACE Entry Summary reports are not impacted. While not all importer of record (IR) numbers will include data from test district port code 8888, you will need to verify whether your IR number is impacted. To do that, CBP recommends taking one of the following actions:
1. Option 1: Filter by district port code
To use the district port code as the filter to remove data for test district port code 8888, first ensure that the district port code is available in the report. If not, you will need to add the district port code before the report is run. Then, if the district port code is not displayed when the report is generated, simply drag and drop the district port code into the report. Use the district port code as the filter to easily remove entry summaries with district port code 8888. Note: This may be the easiest option if you are running an aggregate report.
2. Option 2: Filter by filer code
To use the filer code as the filter to remove data for test district port code 8888, first ensure that the filer code is available in the report. If not, you will need to add the filer code before the report is run. Then, if the filer code is not displayed when the report is generated, simply drag and drop the filer code into the report. Use the filer code as the filter to exclude filer code 888 and any filer code beginning with an “X” or a “Y” from the report. Note: This may be the easiest option if you are running a detail report.
When including entries with no entry date in a report, make certain the create date is available in the report once the report is run. This will allow you to easily remove entry summaries with create dates outside the entry date range you have selected when running the report.
