ACI Commodity Description Search Page (ACI eManifest)
| This article is part of the BorderConnect Software User Guide |
The ACI Commodity Description Search Page is a page in BorderConnect ACI eManifest software allows the user access to the Commodity Descriptions used by the Add/Edit Commodity for ACI Shipment Page. Because all new commodity descriptions entered on an ACI Shipment are recorded, it is normal to accumulate some errors. e.g. typos. This page allows the user to remove undesired commodity descriptions and correct errors. It can be accessed from the ACI eManifests menu by clicking 'Commodity Descriptions.'
