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) |

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.
