Following the message issued on 20 July, HMRC’s Software Developers Support Team (SDST) has provided an update on when message classes in the new transaction engine live environment will be made available (ie the new live endpoint.

“To allow us to ensure we provide stable and highly resilient services for you and your customers we have decided to push the date back. We are not yet in a position to confirm the new date.

This has not been an easy decision but the additional time is necessary to ensure we maintain the high standards you expect from HMRC. We apologise for making further changes to the date and the inconvenience this may cause, especially to those who made plans around the date we previously notified you of - 18th September 2017.

The test environment remains available to you, to test your products and ensure they are configured correctly, and if you haven’t already done so, we would encourage you all to begin to do this as soon as possible.

We will provide a further update when we have a confirmed Go Live date. In the meantime, please contact us if you require any additional support or guidance.”
