FTZ Management: Maintenance - Scope of Authority Configuration

The
Scope of Authority
 screen is used for the validation of receipts and shipments, providing the operator additional visibility as to which HTS was processed through the zone. This is useful for ensuring the zone remains within its authorized scope.
Any receipts or shipments outside the scope of authority (SOA) will be flagged with a notification warning during validation.
If the
Scope Of Authority
 screen is not available or configured for use, please contact IntegrationPoint@ThomsonReuters.com. Support will be able to add and configure the validation.
