Please be advised that the regular ACE Production maintenance window is scheduled to begin on Saturday, April 19, 2014 at 2300 EDT and end on Sunday, April 20, 2014 at 0500 EDT.

The following fixes may impact ACE ABI Entry Summary filers and ABI In-Bond filers:

ACE_IR_1707 – See CSMS Message #14-000206. Improves the output of a Periodic Monthly Statement (PMS) reroute request by echoing the QR record(s) from the inbound MO Transaction in the outbound (MQ) Response Message.

ACE_PR_48428 - Currently, the 'Date of Action' is not populated in the Entry Summary Status Notification (UC) message E1 Record when the Disposition Type Code is an '8' (PSC has been presented by another filer). This will correct that issue.

ACE_PR_48589 - Currently, the ACE Entry Summary AE transaction may return the error 'ACE SYSTEM FAILURE' even though the Entry Summary has been accepted. This deployment will correct this issue.

ACE_PR_48919 - Currently, ACE Entry Summaries transmitted without lines are incorrectly rejected with the error 'ACE SYSTEM FAILURE'. With this deployment, ACE will return the correct error message 'LINE ITEM(S) MISSING'.

ACE_PR_49104 - Currently, a PMS Reroute Response (MQ transaction) is not generated when two QR records are submitted. With this deployment, the proper response will be generated in this scenario.

ACE_PR_49125 - Currently, Monthly Statement Reroute requests where 'Transmission Date' is solely used to retrieve the statement are returning incorrect results. With this deployment, accurate results will be returned in this scenario.

ACE_PR_49140 - This fixes a problem with header data in Periodic Monthly Statements to insure that these transactions are reliably delivered to a trading partner's queue.

ACE_XPTR_41645 - Currently, ACE Entry Summaries transmitted with missing 'Totals' records are incorrectly rejected with the error 'ACE SYSTEM FAILURE'. With this deployment, ACE will return the correct error messages 'FEE TOTAL MISSING' and/or 'GRAND TOTALS MISSING' in this scenario.

Please NOTE: The deployment this weekend will include backing-out PR_48762 (date incorrectly formatted in CATAIR notifications). The estimated date of arrival format will return to YYMMDD as documented in the In-bond CATAIR chapter. The Broker Download CATAIR chapter will be updated to reflect this format.
