(ESAR A2.2 allows for the filing and processing of formal (type 01) and informal (type 11) entry summaries for those who volunteer to submit such entry summaries in ACE. It also allows importers with ACE accounts (and brokers if granted cross account access) to respond to certain CBP forms via the ACE portal. CBP sources note that about 41 entities are filing entry summaries in ACE, and that ACE entry summaries represent less than 1% of all summaries filed.)
1 Programming Issue Moved to Closed List
One programming issue was moved from the "Open" list to the "Closed" list with this update:
| Date Opened | Issue Description (complete description) |
| 12/21/11 | ACE System Failures - 12/20/11. An ACE filer submitted two ACE entry summary transactions (AEs) on 12/20/11 at 19:25 which ACE rejected for ACE System Failure. There are 2 other inbound entry summary (AE) transactions for the same entry summaries at virtually the same time. Two of the AEs do not appear to have outbound (AX) response messages. |
Two Programming Issues Added to the Open List
With this update, CBP has newly listed the following two programming issues as "Open":
| Date Opened | Issue Description (complete description) |
| 01/06/12 | ACE Entry Summary AD/CVD Duty Issue. An ACE entry summary entry type 03 which included AD/CVD duties was replaced by the trade as an entry type 01 with no AD/CVD duties. The correct data was replicated to ACS. However, it appears that ACS did not remove the AD/CVD duties from the previous submission of the entry summary. |
| 01/11/12 | ACE entry summary outbound response AX not sent. An entry summary transaction processed and persisted in ACE was not responded to with an AX outbound message. The entry summary was processed and persisted in ACE on 12/10/11 at 23:42 and sent to ACS. All downstream processing appears to be complete as the ES is fully paid and scheduled for liquidation. |
An Additional 76 Issues Remain on Open List
An additional 76 issues continue to be listed as "Open" on CBP’s spreadsheet (see spreadsheet for full details of each open issue, as well a full list of the issues that have been closed (completed), canceled, and deferred:
