CBP Says ACE Deployment a Success

CBP "successfully deployed" its first round of new Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) functionality, called ACE Deployment A, the agency said in a CSMS message. The deployment, originally scheduled for Oct. 5, was pushed to Nov. 2 due to the government closure (see 13102419). New capabilities in the ACE update include ACE Reports Software Upgrade, ACE Cargo Release Pilot Expansion, Partner Government Agency Message Set, and Entry Summary Validations for tariff classification and Harbor Maintenance Fees (see 13092719)
