FTZ Management: Preparation - Validation Status and Transaction Correction

The
Validation Status
screen is used for scanning transactions to determine if any corrections need to be made. Later, the screen can be used to confirm these corrections were made. The
Validation Screen
can be utilized after the
Staging Data Transfer
step. This screen can be accessed by choosing
Validation Status
from the
Preparation
menu.
  1. To begin the validation process, click
    Validate
    .
    If the workflow is currently running, the
    Validate
    button will be temporarily disabled until the validation is complete. During validation, the following message will display:
  2. After the validation has been completed, the following message will display:
  3. Click
    Refresh
    to update immediately, or you can wait for the
    Validation Status
    table to automatically update every four seconds. If any validation errors appear within the “Warning” column, use the
    Transaction Correction
    screen to correct.
  4. Once changes are made, either click
    Revalidate
    on the
    Transaction Correction
    screen or return to
    Validation Status
    and click
    Validate
    to run the workflow again.

Transaction Correction (Validation Errors)

The
Transaction Correction
screen is used for correcting transaction errors and warnings identified in the Validation Status steps.
To access the
Transaction Correction
screen:
  1. Choose
    Transaction Correction
    from the
    Preparation
    menu.
  2. Use the
    Filter field
    drop-down to choose a filter option, then use the
    Filter value
    drop-down to choose an error type.
  3. Error results and warning results will be separated into separate tabs.
  4. To correct an error or warning identified by the previous
    Validation Status
    process, choose an error/warning from the grid and select
    Edit
    . Make all necessary changes and save.
  5. Click
    Edit
    to open the
    Edit Transaction
    screen. All fields containing a validation error will be surrounded in red. Make all necessary changes, and then click
    Save
    .
  6. Once all errors in the
    Validation Errors
    screen have been resolved, click
    Revalidate
    at the top of the screen. This will redirect the user to the
    Validation Status
    screen. Run the validation workflow again. Repeat this process until all errors have been resolved.

Transaction Correction Table

Definitions: Errors vs. Warnings
Definitions: Errors vs. Warnings
Description
Error
A hard stop in the user's daily processing. This data is invalid or missing and must be resolved before the user can move beyond the validation step.
Warning
A potential issue with complete data. This data is also invalid, but you can move beyond the validation step and return to resolve/ignore warning at a later time. If only warnings remain and you wish to ignore the warnings to continue with processing, do not click Revalidate. Revalidation will return the warnings each time until they are resolved.
Source Fields and Default Sources
Many of the fields in the FIFO transaction tables (txdFIFOProcessing/HTSValues) have source fields for the data elements that can be utilized to pull the data from various maintenance tables:
SOURCE FIELD
DATA SOURCE
I
Item Master
M
Manufacturer ID
H
HS Codes
C
Item Master Custom Rules
P
Pre Receipts
(Blank)
User Company’s ERP System
You can edit data in
FIFO Processing
or
Transaction Correction
to set ‘Default Sources’ for any of the following source fields.
Default Source = I (tmdItemMaster/HTSValues)
ProductTypeCodeSource
ProductDescSource
NaftaCertifiedSource
TxnQtyUomSource

Note that for positive adjustments (i.e., transactions with TxnCode = ‘APPC’ or ‘APIM’), the system will utilize the Default Source (superseding the Source Field value) for data elements that are relevant to the CBP, such as:
  • CountryOfOriginSource
  • HtsNumSource
  • ManufacturerIDSource
  • ValueSource
The following fields are "open" fields that can hold additional FIFO transaction date elements. These allow you to work with the Thomson Reuters implementation team to decide which fields will be of greatest use to your business environment.
