According to CBP, these dictionaries are reference guides designed to enhance the understanding of reports for ACE users, to assist in identifying the report that best fulfills a particular business need, and to encourage the overall use of the reporting tool.
The dictionaries define each report and its corresponding data attributes, making it easier for ACE users to identify specific reports that meet their data requirements.
These versions of the ACE Portal Reports Dictionaries contain detailed descriptions of the most frequently-accessed reports. They also provide the exact location of each report in the ACE reporting tool, the categorical classification of each report, the standard report filters/prompts, and a description of each data attribute contained in the report.
CBP states that it welcomes any questions, feedback or recommendations regarding the ACE Portal Reports Dictionaries. All inquiries should be directed to FoundationBusinessOutcomes@cbp.dhs.gov
