  The asymptotic behaviour of the superpotential of general SUSY
transformations for a coupled-channel Hamiltonian with different thresholds is
analyzed. It is shown that asymptotically the superpotential can tend to a
diagonal matrix with an arbitrary number of positive and negative entries
depending on the choice of the factorization solution. The transformation of
the Jost matrix is generalized to "non-conservative" SUSY transformations
introduced in Sparenberg et al (2006 J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. 39 L639). Applied
to the zero initial potential the method permits to construct superpartners
with a nontrivially coupled Jost-matrix. Illustrations are given for two- and
three-channel cases.
