CSMS # 60131981 - REMINDER: ACE Portal Modernization: Periodic Monthly Statement Features and VECS Launch Button Coming Soon – Pre-deployment Support Call Today

On April 13, 2024, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) will migrate the following functionality from the legacy ACE Portal to the modernized ACE Portal:

Periodic Monthly Statement (PMS) Calendar tool

After April 13, users will no longer have access to PMS-related functionality or the VECS launch button in the legacy ACE Portal.

To assist users with the deployment of the features in the modernized ACE Portal, deployment support calls will be held as follows:
