  • Mandatory to only send and receive with the new AS2 profile after date Z (Z > Y).
  • Less effort for SPs
  • More failed transactions during the transition phase
  • Hard to get an overview of which APs that support the new AS2 profile.
New transport profile id
  • Remove/deprecate old transport profile id at a certain date/time
  • Assign new Transport Profile ID to all endpoints/participants after previous step has been performed.
  • More explicit and more control of who are supporting the new transport profile id
