Automated Broker Interface (ABI) Software

Integration Point ABI Software provides importers with the tools to track the entire process, leading to stronger compliance and control, resulting in overall cost savings.
The Challenge For US importers, a connection with US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is a requirement to share the various data elements required to move goods into the US. Making this connection requires not only knowing the right format in which to communicate to CBP, but also being able to remain current with all of the new functionality that CBP is offering as part of the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) program. Integration Point Automated Broker Interface (ABI) software provides importers with the tools to connect and share data directly with CBP in both the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) and Automated Commercial System (ACS) environments, while having the ability to track the entire process, leading to stronger compliance and control, resulting in overall cost savings. The Solution As an ACE Certified Provider, Integration Point offers its customers the ability to file entries and In-Bond transactions directly with CBP. Integration Point ABI software takes the necessary data such as advanced manifest and product information for the Importer Security Filing (10+2) or imported products and related duty, taxes and fee information on the CBP Form 7501, and melds it into the required format designated by CBP before submission takes place. In addition, Integration Point continues to offer ACS filing for those entry types not yet accepted into ACE, including 7501-06 Summaries and Drawback. The Benefits Integration Point Automated Broker Interface (ABI) software provides importers with an integrated process to quickly connect directly to CBP without a large investment in hardware or other internal resources, so they can become self-filers quickly and easily. The Features Companies that automate the ABI filing process with Integration Point ABI software are able to: View status of transactions in real-time, allowing for quick corrections and resubmission to CBP Utilize templates to decrease the time needed to enter similar data on various filings

A fully automated solution, Integration Point ABI Software allows importers to seamlessly connect and share data directly with CBP in both ACE and ACS environments.
