MODCHQ
This module allows for the processing of manual declarations from Customs Offices that do not
have access to the ASYCUDA++ system. It allows the manual declaration data to be input to the
ASYCUDA++ database by Customs Officers based in Headquarters or Regional Offices. It also
allows for the creation and maintenance of taxation relief rules.
MODCHQCF
This is the National Customs configuration module. It allows National Standards to be applied and
for the creation and maintenance of the main types of taxation rules covering Global Fees, Item
related Taxation and tariff Taxation Column Rules.
MODENT
This is a modified version of Module MODCBR. It allows the same access as MODBRK above, but
can be used by any Brokers or Declarants who have the relevant password permissions. It allows a
number of users to work on the same terminal in a public access location. For example, an ASY++
terminal supplied by Customs in their Processing Office or by an airline at an airport.
MODGTW
The 'Gateway' module is for communication between ASYCUDA++ sub systems in the National
system. This module allows all communications between offices to be automated; e.g. it may be
used to allow routine reference table updates to be transferred from headquarters to regional
offices, and for transaction data from regional offices to be received in return. For full details of the
operation of the ASY++ Gate please see the relevant Technical documentation.
MODSEL
This gives the ability to control the selection and flow of declarations through the Customs
Declaration Processing system. It contains controls to block the Assessment of selected
declarations, to allow physical examination and documentary checks to be made and has a range
of querying and reporting functions.
MODSDI
This module allows for the processing of manual declarations from Customs Offices that do not
have access to the ASYCUDA++ system. It allows the manual declaration data to be input to the
ASYCUDA++ database by Customs Officers based in Headquarters or Regional Offices.
MODSYSCF
This is the System configuration module that allows ASYCUDA++ to be configured for National use
and includes the configuration options for Customs Offices and the User Access Controls.
MODTRS
This module allows for the electronic capture and transmission of Transit data and allows Customs
offices to control the movement of all transit goods within their National Borders and for simplified
import clearance at the Border. Transit documents created and managed within MODTRS are the
Customs Transit (T1), TIR Carnet and First Import Procedure (FIP).
MODTST
This module has facilities to allow the testing of the ASYCUDA++ system operations by
allowing generation of load tests to be carried out on declarations by automating procedures
such as registration and assessment and analysing the responses from servers. It allows for
meaningful testing of the prototype system before implementation.
