On Saturday 10/22/2016, CBP will be addressing two key issues that arose during Sugar opening moment.

1. Filers were unable to include payment information on a resubmittal after a summary has been rejected for proration.
2. Filers stated that they did not have their full 10 days after release to resubmit summaries as they do with non-quota types

Both issues are attributed to the quota module putting the summaries into a “CBP control” status as soon as the quota is processed. This means the only way Trade can resubmit is if CBP rejects the summary or Trade performs a PSC (which can’t be done until after payment).

Trade vs CBP Control

Fix that is being implemented into Production:
CBP will leave the Entry summaries in Trade control until the statements run or they are paid (which is the same functionality for non-quota summaries). This will allow Trade to do the following:

1. Filers can include payment information on a resubmittal. Trade will also have the ability to schedule payment for a different statement as long as the original did not run.
2. Filers will have the ability to delete summaries that they do not want to use for ‘transfer of allocation’.

Additional guidance/process:
1. The summary will not go into CBP control until the statement is created; or for single-pay summaries; or the summary is paid. Quota processing will no longer put the summary into CBP control.
2. While the summary is in Trade control, the Entry summary must be certified for cargo release every time it is resubmitted.
3. While the summary is in Trade control, the Entry Summary will require payment information in the 10-record (pay type, scheduled statement date, etc).
4. While the summary is in Trade control, the filer can delete the summary by filing an entry summary with action code D. This will cancel the quota line if it is not already cancelled and delete the summary.
5. While the summary is in Trade control, if the filer resubmits and there is an error on the Entry summary, they will receive an AX with the condition TRANSACTION DATA REJECTED. When this happens the original quota line is cancelled, unless it is reserved, and the original summary is deleted from the system. If the quota line is reserved, it will stay reserved, but the original summary will be deleted.
6. While the summary is in CBP control, if the filer resubmits and there is an error, they will receive the condition TRANSACTION DATA REJECTED; however, the original quota line and summary will not change.
7. After the statement is generated or the summary is paid, the summary will go into CBP control. Resubmittals do not need to be certified for cargo release and cannot have payment info in the 10-record.
8. If the summary has been rejected for quota (quota filled or reserved) when the scheduled statement date arrives, ACS will change it to single pay. The filer will have to wait until quota successfully processes and then do an HP to reschedule the statement – or pay at the port.
