(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.)
No Programming Issues Move to Closed List
No programming issues were moved from the “Open” list to the “Closed” list with this update.
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) |
| 02/14/12 | ACE ES Outbound AX Error for Consolidated Releases. When submitting a consolidating ACE entry summary transaction and one or more of the entries has already been consolidated, all of the releases incorrectly receive the same reject condition. In the example used, the AE transaction for the consolidating entry summary was a transaction for four releases. The first release had been previously successfully consolidated on another ACE entry summary transaction. The other 3 releases have not been consolidated in an ACE entry summary -- yet received the same reject condition "Release Already Consolidated". |
| 02/15/12 | ACE data warehouse not updated. The ACE data warehouse has not been updated overnight with entry summary transactions processed yesterday, 2/14/12. ACE portal reports run daily produce the exact same results as those run yesterday and provide no data for entry summaries created on 2/14/12. |
