The Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) portal contains tools which are most helpful when importers and exporters are tasked with monitoring their transactional activity, obtaining information about filers and bonds, and reviewing liquidation and ISF accuracy, yet its full capabilities can be difficult to extract.  We will provide tips and tricks for working with your company’s data within the portal, how to run and modify reports, and how to use the ACE system to augment your auditing work.  Please bring your laptop so you can sign in to ACE and practice with your own company’s data.
