Problem
"U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has incorporated U.S. Census Bureau data validations into the ACE entry summary ABI process. Census warnings result when discrepancies occur between what the Census Bureau usually observes for a data element or a relationship between
two data elements for a particular tariff and the data filed in an entry summary.
Census warnings do not always mean an entry summary is in error, just that the information given is unlikely to be accurate. Commercial invoices or other evidence should be examined to verify the accuracy of the data. If there are errors in the submitted data, then the entry summary
information must be corrected. If, however, the unlikely information is accurate, meaning that the entry summary data are correct as reported, then an appropriate override code must be submitted.Override codes may be submitted along with the ACE entry summary (see the ACE ABI CATAIR chapter titled “Entry Summary Filing and Response Guide”) or may be submitted after ACE entry summary processing and acceptance of the entry summary in ACE in a separate transaction (see the ACE ABI CATAIR chapter titled “Census Warning Override”). " "

4.Click "Transmit" after selecting the "Override" code.
