What is the new In-bond Export Date validation in ACE Truck Manifest EDI message?

A new validation is being added to the processing of the Standard Truck Manifest X. 12 transaction set 353 (Events Advisory) and EDIFACT CUSREP (Events Reporting) messages used by Trade to report an in-bond export to CBP. If Trade transmits an in-bond export date that is prior to the in-bond's arrival date, the error "166 EXPRT DATE BEFORE ARR DATE" will result.

The new error will be added to a forthcoming update of the truck manifest response (X. 12 transaction set 355 and EDIFACT CUSRES) message implementation guides. 

This enhanced validation will resolve incidents of in-bond export transactions that fail processing due to the invalid export date, a condition for which the trade user did not receive any rejection error. 

The validation is scheduled to move to the ACE Certification environment on March 10, 2021, and to ACE Production on March 20th.
