CSMS #40389928 - Update for the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) Collections Release 1 – PZ Output Release Date

Update for ACE Collections Release 1:

The update was moved to the Certification environment on October 3, 2019.  Release to the Production environment will occur on Saturday, November 2, 2019.

The PZ output E0 record currently has the statement number in the Reference Text field.  The Trade has requested that the Payer Unit Number (PUN), Payment Type, and Payment Amount also be included in the PZ response. To accommodate this request, the data will be added to the Reference Text after the statement number.  The data will mirror back what was sent on the PT input record of the RM.

For technical documentation, please see the draft ACH Debit Authorization/Entry Summary Presentation CATAIR, published on cbp.gov.

Who do I contact if I have issues?
