New ACE Reports Features Available Oct. 7

CBP will release some new ACE Reports features on Oct. 7, the agency said on its website. "A new Entry Summary (ES) universe and several new ACE canned reports have been developed to consolidate data found in the legacy Account Management and ESM-10002 Entry Summary universes," it said. "The new universe and set of standard reports will provide users the ability to query a more robust set of data elements that have been normalized for both [Automated Commercial Services] and ACE sourced entry summaries."

CBP also reconsidered its plans for the existing "universe," it said. "While the new Entry Summary universe scheduled for release on October 7th is intended to ultimately replace the existing universes containing entry summary data, certain functionality will be unavailable until the final release of Deployment G on February 24, 2018," CBP said. As such, all legacy universes will remain intact until further notice, with the earliest date of discontinuation being 30 days after the February 2018 deployment. Data maintained in these universes will not go stale as originally planned, so ACE report users can continue to save legacy ACE reports to the My Documents panel from the Documents tab or run any saved reports from their My Favorites folders that use the legacy universes to pull data into ACE Reports."
