Customs Brokers enter merchandise two ways
Merchandise with a common classification is consolidated in to a single entry line
Each unique part number is entered as a separate entry line
City Business uses the second method in most cases
Method 1 causes data reconciliation if it is required to be overwhelming.
Method 2 allows quick reconciliation at the part number level if data is ever needed
for any reason including the following:
Drawback
Refund Request
Customs Re Classification
Automated commercial invoice upload can be setup to accommodate method 2 with
less effort.
