Hi Jan,

Thank you for the help. Based on your example I crafted another version of the 
BRSKI-PRM voucher request with a grouping containing only the additional 3 
fields needed in BRSKI-PRM, which is then used to augment the original voucher. 

We have to do some further testing to see if it works out.

Best regards
Steffen
