Issues with Sterling VAN with AS2 connection, not able to transmit VDA files

Issues with Sterling VAN with AS2 connection, not able to transmit VDA files to Daimler customer via T system because there is an issue with T-system due to missing header information.



This has been showstopper for our VAN migration project and leading delay to IBM SI Decommisioning.



Please work with your product development Team to have the Header information when we send the VDA files via AS2 connection. We need this solution at earliest since it is very urgent.
