CSMS #38834918 - Updated Quota ES Error Message For Quota Line Quantities Less than Zero

The quota application is unable to accommodate entry summary quantities of zero, and as a result, any entry summaries that are sent in with zero quantities are indefinitely stuck in a pending status. Unfortunately, this means that those entry summaries are unable to properly allocate. As a result, CBP is making a system update to send out a new UC reject for any quota entry summary filings with a quantity of zero. Entry summary filings will still be accepted with a quantity of zero, but this new UC reject will be sent out to inform the trade as to why the quota is unable to process. This system update is going to be deployed to the PRODUCTION environment on Saturday, July 13, 2019 during the normal ACE deployment outage window.

A new Q15 error code with a description of ‘QTA QUANTITY MUST BE > 0’ will be added to the entry summary status notification documentation at the following location: https://www.cbp.gov/document/guidance/entry-summary-status-notification
