ACE E-Manifest Interface
 Axon’s
software can be fully integrated with the US
Customs and Border
Protection’s ACE system for sending electronic manifests for trucks
crossing the border.
ACE ID
Your first step is to request ACE ID’s for drivers, crew members,
owner operators, tractors, and trailers that do not already have a
FAST number. Axon’s ACE interface provides you with a screen
outlining the information required so that you can submit your
requests electronically. The software then tracks the status of your
request and provides a button so that you can resend your request if
you do not receive a response within 24 hours.
CBP codes
Axon’s software provides you with lists of the Customs and Border
Protection (CBP) codes for package types, border codes, Schedule K,
and UN Dangerous Goods. Because these lists are long, you mark the
codes you use as Active so you have fewer choices to deal with.
Testing and production
The CBP will want you to test your ACE setup before you start using
it. The software provides you with both Trial and Production modes
of operation to help you with this process.
Manifest report
You can print a paper copy of the manifest for the driver to take
with him on the road. The report has been formatted according to CBP
guidelines.
The ACE interface also helps you to revise and
resubmit a manifest or to send an electronic message to CBP
notifying them that the truck will no longer be crossing the border.
History report
You can review both past and current manifests using the ACE
Manifest History Report, selecting the information you wish to print
based on a variety of fields. For example, the report allows you to
review manifests for a particular tractor or a particular estimated
arrival time.
Purchase ACE interface
The ACE interface is an add-on to Axon’s standard software package.
If you are interested in adding the module to your system, contact
your Axon Sales Rep. at 1-800-567-8385.

Axon's ACI eManifest Application is Ready to Roll
If you are moving loads into Canada you need to be
aware of the upcoming Canadian border ACI eManifest
requirements. The ACI eManifest is similar to the
current ACE eManifest that is required by U.S. Customs
and Border Protection (CBP) when transporting into the
United States. The current ACI eManifest rollout
timeline is detailed on the
Canadian Border Services Agency (CBSA) web site with
an Oct. 31, 2010 live date for EDI users |
