This document provides information on basic functionality of the ACE Reports Tool and outlines detailed instructions on how to access available reports. These instructions begin with features that apply to all reports users.
Following the basic features, instructions are organized into four key sections:
- Standard Reports - Viewing reports with pre-set data fields.
- Modified Reports - Modifying data fields within standard reports.
- Customized Reports - Building fully customized reports from a blank slate.
- Automated Data Extract (ADE) - Downloading reports that exceed current data limits of 65,000 lines. This function can only be performed by Trade Account Owners (TAO) and Proxy TAOs. (Formerly known as "bulk data download.")
Each section is organized similarly by providing instructions on how to run, filter, sort, save, schedule, create charts and graphs, and print reports. The instructions provided are designed to supplement the Web-based training titled, "ACE Reports for the Trade Community" and other instructional documents within the Training and Reference Guides section on www.cbp.gov/modernization.
