Purpose

The Monitoring functionality allows a BzCtrl. User to define the quantitative and/or financial scope of a customs licence, authorisation or other customs-related permit and continuously monitor the extent to which that scope has been consumed.

The functionality must support, in particular:

• Inward Processing authorisations;
• End Use authorisations;
• AGRIM/import licences;
• other licences or authorisations where quantities and/or values are limited;
• automated consumption of the available scope based on customs declarations;
• manual and API-based input;
• aggregation of multiple declarations into monitoring totals;
• drill-down from an aggregate figure to the underlying declarations;
• storage of supporting documentation;
• configurable threshold notifications.

The core principle is:

Authorised scope → actual declarations → calculated consumption → remaining scope → evidence/documentation

The Monitoring functionality should therefore provide both an operational overview and an auditable trail.
