Please be advised that there will be an ACE PRODUCTION Entry Summary deployment on Tuesday morning, June 28, 2016, starting at 0600 ET.

The deployment is expected to take approximately 30 minutes, and will impact ACE Cargo Release and ACE Entry Summary processing.

To be deployed:

Batch/Block Validations
----------------------------
• Ticket 2723920/CES-5129: fix for some of the Cargo Release (SE) INVALID PROFILE errors (X18-PROC PORT/FLR NOT AUTHRZD FOR SENDR).

• ESV-3483: Support new RM application ID code (ACE Debit / Credit Payment Authorization transaction) in ABI Validations. (New application ID RM, which takes effect on 10/1/16, will now be recognized as valid)

Entry Summary Validations (ESV)
--------------------------------
• CES-4243: Accept any Merchandise Processing Fee (MPF) amount for an article when the first two HTS numbers are BOTH in chapter 98.

• Ticket 2477546/CES-4256: fixed MPF rejecting when there were three HTS numbers on the line. Error was "632-FORMAL MPF NOT ALLOWED - ARTICLE EXEMPT".

• Ticket 2537928/CES-4729: Modify CO/CE (Country of Origin, Country of Export) Pairings for Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) Match.

If an Importer makes a GSP (SP Code = A) claim in an ES line, BOTH the C/O and C/E must be GSP countries. In addition, if the C/O and C/E are different, then both the C/O and C/E must ALSO be members of a subgroup. It has been identified by OT policy that two of the existing sub-groups (ASEAN and CARICOM) need to have additional countries added to include former/now expired countries for the purpose of this GSP validation. Instead of simply adding the additional countries to the existing groups, two additional groups have been defined. A new ASEAN-ALL group has been added which includes all the ASEAN group countries + Singapore, Malaysia, and Brunei. A new CARICOM-ALL group has been added which includes all the CARICOM group countries + Bahamas.
