  preserved.
  

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

Comments

• z/OS Connect EE IMS service provider has been updated to use the
  value of the preserveJsonObjectPayloadOrder during response
  processing, thereby preserving the order of the JSON response
  objects.
  
  The fix for this APAR is expected to be delivered by the PTF for
  z/OS Connect EE V3.0.32.0 (PH23299).
