CHANGES ARE BEING MADE TO THE ABI BORDER CARGO RELEASE HN APPLICATION
WHICH WILL INCLUDE A FIELD FOR A THREE DIGIT SURETY CODE AND A FIELD
FOR LINE ITEM VALUE.
THE SCHEDULED IMPLEMENTATION DATE WILL BE LATE OCTOBER. YOU WILL BE
NOTIFIED OF THE SPECIFIC DATE BEFORE THESE CHANGES ARE MOVED TO ACS
PRODUCTION.
THE HN 01 INPUT RECORD FORMAT WILL BE MODIFIED TO ADD A FIELD FOR
A THREE DIGIT SURETY CODE:
THE NEW FIELD FOR THE THREE DIGIT SURETY CODE WILL BE ADDED IN
POSITIONS 34 THRU 36. THIS WILL BE A NUMERIC FIELD AND IT WILL BE
CONDITIONAL. THIS FIELD WILL PROVIDE THE CAPABILITY TO TRANSMIT
THE THREE DIGIT SURETY CODE IF A SINGLE ENTRY BOND CODE '9'
IS REPORTED IN POSITION 33 OF THE 01 INPUT RECORD.
IF A BOND CODE '9' IS TRANSMITTED THE SURETY CODE WILL BE MANDATORY.
IT WILL BE VALIDATED AGAINST THE SURETY CODE FILE IN THE
AUTOMATED COMMERCIAL SYSTEM. IF A CONTINUOUS BOND CODE '8' IS
PROVIDED FOR THE ENTRY THE SURETY CODE WILL NOT BE PERMITTED.
THE HN 02 INPUT RECORD FORMAT WILL BE MODIFIED TO ADD A FIELD FOR LINE
ITEM VALUE:
THE NEW FIELD FOR THE LINE ITEM VALUE WILL BE ADDED IN POSITIONS 43 THRU
52. THIS WILL BE A NUMERIC FIELD AND IT WILL BE OPTIONAL. IT WILL BE
PERMISSIBLE TO SUBMIT ALL ZEROES IF SUCH A DECLARATION IS WARRANTED.
IF THE BROKER SUBMITS A VALUE FOR ONE LINE ITEM, THEN A VALUE MUST BE
SUBMITTED FOR EACH LINE ITEM. THE FIELD WILL BE EQUAL TO WHOLE DOLLARS
WITH NO DECIMALS.
