Weekly ACE Production Outage beginning February 28, 2015

The regular ACE Maintenance Window starting Saturday, 2/28/2015 at 2200 ET until Sunday, 3/1/2015 at 0400 ET will likely be extended. The outage could possibly last until Sunday, March 1, 2015 until around 0500 ET.

This weekend's ACE work does NOT include maintenance to the ACE database and will, therefore, NOT affect ACS Air AMS or ACS ABI.

Please contact your assigned CBP Client Representative if you have questions.

The fixes below may impact ACE participants.

ACE_CR_4229 - Introduces new e-Bond system functionality that will send the bond-issuing Surety an electronic notification of an entry summary action.

ACE_CR_4230 - A change to the ABI KI importer bond query output transaction (KR) which a) returns the physical address of the importer (as well as the mailing address) and b) limits the query to continuous bonds only.

ACE_PR_49470 - Fixes a problem where a 'SYSTEM FAILURE' is incorrectly returned in an Entry Summary Create / Update output transaction (AX) in a scenario where the input AE transactions did not include a line item. (The correct response should be 'LINE ITEM(S) MISSING'.)
