Payee & documentation review

• Possible owner or consignee documentation scenario: 1 entries. Owner or consignee names do not line up cleanly with the importer field, so refund-routing support should be gathered before pack prep continues.
• Possible notify-party or third-party payee scenario: 1 entries. A third-party payee or notify-party name appears in the file, so refund mailing or routing instructions should be confirmed before paid prep starts.

Refunds Ready checklist

• Confirm ACE Portal access for each importer in this file (review): This file spans 3 importer entities, so the paid workflow should verify which ACE account can receive refund activity for each one.
• Confirm ACH refund authorization in ACE Portal (actionNeeded): Track completion as a workflow step only. Do not store bank account numbers in this product.
• Review refund payee routing before pack generation (review): 2 entries show owner, notify-party, payee, or surety signals that should be documented before refund routing is assumed.

CAPE preflight validation

Mapped to the ACE Portal - CAPE Declarations Quick Reference Guide (April 2026, Publication No. 5514-0426). Checks the current analysis snapshot can prove are marked Pass or Fail. ACE-side claim validations that the snapshot cannot prove are marked Review needed.

Format & initial validation risks

Rule	Status	Detail
Upload file cannot be empty	Pass	The generated CAPE declaration CSV contains 3 entry numbers, so the upload file is not empty.
Upload file cannot exceed 10,000 entries	Pass	The generated CAPE declaration CSV stays within the current 10,000-entry CAPE upload limit.
Header title row cannot be missing	Pass	The generated CAPE declaration CSV always includes the required "Entry Number" header row.
Upload file format must be .csv	Pass	The generated CAPE declaration artifact is emitted as a CSV file for ACE upload.
Entry numbers must normalize to 11 alphanumeric characters	Pass	All included CAPE declaration entry numbers normalize to 11 alphanumeric characters.
No duplicate entry numbers	Pass	No duplicate entry references were detected in the analyzed data.

Batch & claim validation risks

Rule	Status	Detail
IOR number of importer account must match the submitted entry summary	Review needed	This artifact does not preserve ACE account context, so account mismatch risk must be confirmed in ACE or with the filing broker.
Entry number must exist	Review needed	The current analysis snapshot cannot confirm ACE existence for each entry number, so missing-entry failures remain review-needed.
Entry Summary Status must be Accepted	Review needed	A status-like source column was detected, but this artifact does not preserve ACE-authoritative Entry Summary Status values for a conclusive pass/fail check.
Control Status must be CBP	Review needed	Control Status is not part of the current analysis snapshot, so this ACE claim validation remains review-needed.
Entry must have at least one IEEPA HTS	Review needed	The current analysis estimates IEEPA exposure but does not retain ACE HTS declarations per entry, so missing-IEEPA-HTS failures remain review-needed.
Entry Type cannot be Duty Deferral (08), Recon (09), TIB (23), or Drawback (47)	Review needed	A source entry-type field was detected and obvious excluded entry types are removed from the CAPE candidate CSV; confirm remaining entry types in ACE.
Entry cannot be flagged for Reconciliation	Review needed	Reconciliation flags are not captured in the current analysis snapshot, so this CAPE claim validation remains review-needed.
Liquidated entries over 80 days past liquidation can fail claim validation	Review needed	A liquidation-date field was detected in the source analysis, but this artifact does not retain ACE-authoritative liquidation timing needed for a conclusive over-80-days determination.
