Customs filing processes require that the weight and value of each trade transaction, trade transaction line, declaration, and declaration line be accurately understood and reported. Both the value and weight information must exist at the trade transaction/declaration level or errors will result when the records are processed. This page lets you specify both values. Additionally, this page helps you in the process to estimate landed costs for transactions. When run against declarations, this action helps you calculate costs that need to be sent to AES.

2. Enter a value qualifier in the This allocation is prorated based on Value Qualifier ID field. This identifies the value used to prorate the charge and must be present on each of the lines in the Values section.
