The changeover in AEB's applications will take place as part of a soft migration over the coming months. During the changeover phase, messages will continue to be processed in the format of the previous release 2.4. This gives all participants time to implement the new certified software version 3.0. The switch to ATLAS 3.0 must be completed by July 16, 2023.

Step 1: Check professional and functional changes

This release change involves a large number of technical changes that require adjustments to your processes and the IT systems involved. Therefore, as a first step, familiarize yourself with the changes in March 2023 and take the necessary measures.

Step 2: Prepare for the changeover

AEB will contact you in March to agree on how to proceed. Reserve technical and professional resources for April 2023 in order to implement and test the necessary adjustments to the presystem and interface identified by the professional preparation in cooperation with AEB in the test as well as in the productive system.

AEB will provide additional content for this purpose.

Additional notes for customers with plug-in for SAP ®:

The installation of the current transports is generally recommended, but not mandatory for AES 3.0. They are only required if you want to transfer fields newly added to the interface from SAP®. You can find the transports in the AEB download area. Please note the general requirements for installing transports.

Step 3: Perform changeover

AEB will coordinate the changeover to AES 3.0 with you. This must be done by July 16, 2023 at the latest.
