Trade participants will be able to submit a PSC for an existing ACE entry type 01 and 03 entry summary. Since the PSC process replaces the existing Post-Entry Amendment (PEA) hard copy process for entry summaries filed in ACE, PEAs will no longer be accepted for entry summaries filed in ACE effective 90 days after the June 4, 2011 deployment date.
