Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed from the perspective of a network node. In one embodiment, the method includes the network node configuring a UE (User Equipment) with a first DRB (Data Radio Bearer), wherein the first DRB is configured with a presence of SDAP (Service Data Adaptation Control) header and the network node is not allowed to reconfigure the first DRB with an absence of SDAP header before the first DRB is released. The method further includes the network node configuring the UE to serve a first QoS (Quality of Service) flow and a second QoS flow by the first DRB. The method also includes re-configuring the UE to serve the first QoS flow by a second DRB, which was originally served by the first DRB, if the second QoS flow is released or removed from the first DRB, wherein the second DRB is configured with an absence of SDAP header.
