This is the release to inform the user that the expedient has added a validation process on the invoice line with TCO & Origin Preference together.
Background
The ICS doesn’t allow the user to lodge the entry with both TCO and Origin Preference together for the same entry line. If the user types in both TCO & Origin Preference, it will cause the lodgement rejected by customs.
Solutions
- If a user manually registers the supplier invoice and TCO is entered, the expedient will default the preference scheme to “GEN” automatically.
- If a user uses “Load Invoice File” in supplier invoice or “Load Import Invoice File” in Sundry > Down Load Data Files, the expedient will default the preference scheme to “GEN” automatically.
Note:
- A user is still allowed to store both TCO and Origin Preference information in the parts Masterfile.
- If the user determines to use Origin Preference rather than TCO for a part, please ensure TCO information is removed from parts Masterfile before uploading the file to supplier invoice. Alternatively the user can remove the TCO information and add Origin Preference manually in the supplier invoice after uploading the file to supplier invoice.
