A CHANGE IS BEING MADE TO THE ABI CARGO RELEASE HI APPLICATION WHICH
WILL GIVE ABI FILERS THE CAPABILITY TO TRANSMIT MULTIPLE ULTIMATE
CONSIGNEES AND VALUES AT THE LINE ITEM LEVEL.
THE SCHEDULED IMPLEMENTATION DATE WILL BE LATE OCTOBER. YOU WILL BE
NOTIFIED OF THE SPECIFIC DATE BEFORE THIS CHANGE IS MOVED TO ACS
PRODUCTION.
THE HI H5 CARGO RELEASE INPUT RECORD WILL BE MODIFIED AS FOLLOWS:
TWO NEW FIELDS WILL BE ADDED TO ACCOMMODATE THIS INFORMATION. THE
LINE ITEM ULTIMATE CONSIGNEE WILL BE ADDED IN POSITIONS 33-44.
THIS FIELD WILL BE 12 CHARACTERS LONG AND MUST APPEAR IN A VALID
FORMAT, (I.E., YYDDPP-NNNNN CUSTOMS ASSIGNED NUMBER,
NN-NNNNNNNXX IRS NUMBER, NNN-NN-NNNN SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER,
OR -CCCCCCCCCCC ENCRYPTED NUMBER. THE FORMULA USED TO
DECODE THE ALPHA CHARACTERS LISTED IN THE EXAMPLES OF
VALID IMPORTER/ULTIMATE CONSIGNEE NUMBERS IS ILLUSTRATED IN
THE CUSTOMS AND TRADE AUTOMATED INTERFACE REQUIREMENTS (CATAIR)
ON PAGE CRL-H2-03.
THE ULTIMATE CONSIGNEE FIELD IN THE H2 HEADER RECORD,
POSITIONS 11 THRU 22 AND THE ULTIMATE CONSIGNEE FIELD IN THE H5 LINE
ITEM DATA RECORD, POSITIONS 33 THRU 44 WILL BOTH BE CONDITIONAL
FIELDS BASED ON THE FOLLOWING EXPLANATIONS. IF THERE IS ONLY ONE
ULTIMATE CONSIGNEE IT MUST BE REPORTED IN THE H2 HEADER RECORD
POSITIONS 11 THRU 22, AS IS CURRENTLY THE CASE. IN THOSE
SITUATIONS, THE ULTIMATE CONSIGNEE FIELD IN ALL ASSOCIATED
H5 RECORDS MUST BE BLANK. IF THERE ARE MULTIPLE ULTIMATE
CONSIGNEES FOR AN ENTRY THEY MUST BE REPORTED IN THE H5 LINE ITEM
RECORD POSITIONS 33 THRU 44. THE ULTIMATE CONSIGNEE FIELD IN THE
H2 HEADER RECORD MUST BE BLANK. WHEN MULTIPLE CONSIGNEES EXIST FOR
AN ENTRY, THE H5 RECORDS WILL BE REPEATED AS OFTEN AS NECESSARY TO
ENSURE THAT EACH CONSIGNEE IS ACCURATELY REPORTED.
THE LINE ITEM VALUE WILL ALSO BE ADDED TO THE H5 RECORD IN POSITIONS
45 THRU 54. THIS FIELD WILL BE EQUAL TO 10 POSITIONS AND MUST BE
NUMERIC. THE FIELD MUST BE REPORTED IN WHOLE DOLLARS WITH NO DECIMALS.
A VALUE OF ALL ZEROES WILL BE ACCEPTABLE IN THE H5 RECORD IF SUCH A
DECLARATION IS WARRANTED. THIS WILL BE AN OPTIONAL FIELD.
WHEN LINE ITEM VALUE(S) ARE REPORTED EACH H5 LINE ITEM RECORD MUST
CONTAIN A VALUE AND BE EQUAL TO THE TOTAL VALUE OF THE ENTRY THAT WAS
REPORTED IN THE H2 HEADER RECORD, POSITIONS 29 THRU 38.
