In BorderConnect’s [https://www.borderconnect.com/ace-e-manifest/index.htm ACE Manifest software], each '''ACE Manifest Status''' visually represents the current processing stage of a manifest with [[US_Customs_and_Border_Protection_-_General_Information|U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP)]].

Statuses update automatically when:
<div class="bc-card">


* A manifest is transmitted to CBP 
<h2 style="margin-top: 0;">Overview</h2>
* CBP returns an acceptance, rejection, or system message 
[[Image:Ace-emanifest-statuses.png|thumb|right|Color-coded ACE Manifest statuses in BorderConnect]]
* Arrival or release is reported at the border
<p>In BorderConnect, every ACE eManifest features a <strong>status bar</strong> that visually represents its current processing stage with U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). These statuses update automatically in real-time as data is transmitted, accepted, or processed at the border.</p>


These visual indicators appear on:
<p>You can find these indicators on the <strong>ACE Manifest Details Page</strong> and the <strong>ACE Manifest Search Page</strong>.</p>

<strong>Color Logic:</strong> Generally, <strong>Yellow</strong> indicates action is needed or pending, <strong>Blue</strong> indicates the manifest is on file, and <strong>Green</strong> indicates broker clearance or release. <strong>Brown/Red</strong> indicates errors or cancellations.
