Check HBL’s for Submission to Customs Make sure the addresses of the Shipper and Consignee are correct, as this is what will be submitted to US Customs Click on Submit to finalize the submission CSI Submission Guide

  16. The successful submission to CSI will be recorded with a CS – “submitted to customs” – in the shipment history of each HBL submitted • The AMS Acceptance will likewise be recorded with a UA – “accepted by customs” - in the shipment history of each HBL submitted • Rejections in a submission will be recorded as RED Remarks • No CHANGES to a HBL may be resubmitted while the US status is CS; only once the status has change to either UA (submission accepted) or UR (submission rejected), may changes to the HBL be submitted (excluding to the Vessel Name, Voyage Number, Port of Load/Trans-shipment Port or Port of Arrival) Successful Submission to US Customs • US status will change to CS (submitted to customs), after successful submission. • Other US Customs Status Codes are • UA – AMS acceptance - Once accepted by AMS it will automatically change to UA; • UR - Rejected by Customs • PA - Held for Inspection • CC - Cleared by Customs The HB number used for submission will be displayed in brackets on the HBL Processing Screen after successful submission CSI Submission Guide

  17. “1Y” acceptance Code • This is an automatic response when transmitting the Bill of lading to AMS/Customs if … • (1) the Master Carrier has also transmitted the manifest and • (2) the vessel, voyage number , Master Carrier SCAC Code and Bill of lading match with our data that we/you entered. • The 1Y will happen when there is a match-link between UTI’S AMS transmission and the Ocean Carriers AMS Transmission – a missing 1Y MUST be attended to • If you do not receive a 1Y, you must call the ocean carrier to … • (1) confirm that the data matches • (2) find out if there is a problem with the carrier and or Tradegate • (3) if 1 & 2 does not resolve the problem, you must email Tradegate or Denise Descoteaux for assistance - ddescoteaux@go2uti.com CSI Submission Guide

  18. FAQ’s on 1Y • A couple of questions on 1Y that were not covered in the AMS tutorials: • If there is no 1Y does that imply a rejection?Not a rejection but not a match with the carrier. • What are the implications, if the absence of a 1Y is not attended to?Presently the only implication that I know of , which is a big one, is that the carrier will not be able to cut the I.T.’s to move the freight inland and or UTI will not be able to customs clear the freight. So it does create a big problem… I have just heard rumblings of this and have not confirmed but eventually I am advised that if the carrier does not see a 1Y, the goods will not be loaded…. • Currently the AMS Accepted should be returned within 24 hrs - what about the 1Y - how long (max) after the Accepted?The 1Y will happen once there is a match-link between UTI’S AMS transmission and the Ocean Carriers AMS Transmission. This should be simultaneous with the AMS Accepted. • It appears as if Accepted now counts for nothing and operators can only regard the submission as complete once a 1Y is received?I would say yes…. The 1Y signifies that the UTI HBL has been closed out and the goods now will travel from origin to destination under the Ocean Carriers Bill of Lading and Liability…. CSI Submission Guide

  19. Any other changes, except to Vessel Name, Voyage Number, Port of Load / Trans-shipment Port or Port of Arrival may be done and resubmitted via eMpower. • Changes to the Vessel Name, Voyage Number, Port of Load or Port of Arrival may be corrected in eMpower, but • Such changes must be manually logged in the Tradegate 2000 system as adjustments - refer to the CSI v11 manual on Inzalo Resubmission to US Customs A change to either the Vessel, Voyage, Port of Load /Trans-shipment Port or Port of Arrival will bring up this warning message - you will be allowed to correct it in eMpower, but the changes must be manually logged in the Tradegate 2000 system as adjustments - refer to the CSI v10 manual on Inzalo CSI Submission Guide

  20. FCS/ Import 2000 (4) US Customs/ AMS (5) uBase (1) uConnect (2) Amtrix (3) uConnect Monitoring Tool Amtrix Monitoring tools Import 2000 Web Front-end eMpower EDI data flow Manual interaction with data Unix Prompt • 1.An operator initiates the process by submitting an export housebill to US customs by using eMpower. A CS secondary • status is entered on the housebill in question. • 2. UConnect detect that a CS status was entered and will start the process of extracting an EDI file to be transmitted to • US customs. • 3. The EDI file produced by uConnect is then picked up and transferred to the VPN software for FCS by Amtrix. • 4. The VPN client uploads the EDI on the FCS Import 2000 system. If the upload fails the Import 2000 system will • produce an error response file, which is transferred back to uTrac via the following steps: • Amtrix will map the error response back into a USI red remark message • The red remark will be processed into uBase by uConnect and can be viewed from eMpower or uOp • 5. If the EDI file was accepted by the Import 2000 system the Housebill will automatically get submitted to the AMS system • Within a couple of hours the AMS system will response back to Import 2000 with a status code indicating whether the • housebill was accepted or rejected by AMS. The FCS Import 2000 system will transfer the AMS status code back to Amtrix • via the VPN client software. Amtrix will map the AMS status into a USI message which are processed by uConnect into uBase • as a secondary status representing AMS response, which can be viewed from eMpower or uOp. • For more detail and tips on troubleshooting refer to the Manual created by Thinus Joubert on the • CSI Tutorial page Inzalo A Diagram of the Data Flow from eMpower to AMS CSI Submission Guide
