'''How to Import More than 10,000 Shipments to a Single ACE''' | |||
1. Create your first ACE eManifest, so in the drop down menu select ACE eManifests and select Start New ACE Manifest, and after you enter all your trip details, at the bottom you have the option to upload shipments directly into your ACE Manifest in either a JSON or CSV file format. Now click and locate or drag the file into the manifest. Then on the top left, hover over Save and then select Save and View Trip Details. If you’re adding a significant amount of shipments it may take some time to process the shipment upload so it’s important to be patient during this process. Once this process is complete, you’ll be brought to the ACE Manifest Details page where you can see that your shipments have been successfully imported into the ACE Manifest. | |||
2. Create a new ACE Manifest, so at the top under ACE eManifest select Start New ACE Manifest. For this second trip number you can use the same trip number as previously, only this time adding a B to the end. Next on the top right, ''Show All Fields'' will need to be enabled, which will reveal the field '''Link Shipments to Trip'''. So click into Link Shipments to Trip and assign the original trip that you created initially. This will link all of this trips shipments to that manifest. | |||
3. Next enter the remainder of the trip details, and then at the bottom click and locate or drag the second JSON or CSV file that contains the additional shipments into this manifest. Then go to the top left and hover over Save and select Save and View Trip Details. And just like the first large batch of imports, you will need to be patient as these shipments are imported into BorderConnect. Once the import is complete you will be brought to the ACE Manifest Details page. | |||
If you had even more shipments to add to the original manifest, just repeat the process as we did for the second manifest that we created, and create your third ACE manifest while adding “C” to the end of the trip number and import the additional shipments on that manifest. | |||
4. Next Send the first ACE Manifest to CBP, so under ACE Manifests click Search ACE Manifests and then click into or view the original ACE that was created from the ACE Manifest listing page. Once in the ACE Manifest Details page, hover over Send to CBP at the top and click Send Complete Manifest which will move the status to two yellow bars, transmitted. And because this manifest contains a significant amount of shipments, it will take much longer than usual to get processed by CBP and accepted, in some cases up to 20 minutes. But once it does get accepted, it will turn to three blue bars. | |||
5. After the first ACE is on file with CBP you will have to send the second manifest that was created, so again, under ACE eManifests click Search ACE Manifests and View the second ACE Manifest that was created. Once in it, hover over Send to CBP and click Link Shipments to Trip which will transmit your manifest to CBP linking these shipments to the original manifest at the same time. And after some time it will get accepted and move to three blue bars. Now all the shipments have been successfully accepted and linked to the original first manifest that we created. | |||
If these ACE Manifests only contain Section 321 shipments, so no entry numbers will be provided and three blue bars is the status that will remain on the ACE Manifests until the driver arrives at the border. It’s also important to note that CBP will see all of the shipments on the original ACE Manifest that we created, so be sure to show the driver lead sheet for the original trip only when arriving at the border. | |||
