Below are the fixes that impact the ACE Entry Summary and ABI filers:



ACE_PR_46928 - The informational "ARTICLE MAY BE SUBJECT TO AD/CVD" message will now be returned in an output entry summary AX transaction when the first 8-digits of the reported HTS number match an active case.

Issue 680



ACE_PR_48002 - Fixes an intermittent problem where the "PERIODIC STMT REQUIRES ACE FILER" message is incorrectly generated in an entry summary AX response.



ACE_PR_48113 - Fixes a problem in the AD/CVD query AC response transaction in a scenario where the response is mal-formed (specifically, some output records do not conform to the 80-character length requirement).

Issue 880



ACE_PR_48604 – Currently the Broker Download (BD) transaction returns only 20 VINs per equipment even though the number of VINs may exceed 20. ACE will now return ALL VINs in the Broker /download transaction.
