CBP Postpones July 8 ACE Deployment

CBP again postponed its last major ACE deployment for post-release capabilities that was scheduled for July 8, it said in a June 27 CSMS message (here). "We have been conducting ongoing, rigorous testing to ensure these capabilities will operate successfully," said CBP. "Our latest efforts have revealed areas specific to collections that are in need of further testing before these capabilities can be deployed. Consequently, we are postponing the July 8, 2017 deployment, and are in the process of replanning. We will communicate further information as soon as possible."
