Special Character error in IDOC

All,

I am trying to upload PO data using IDOC type "PORDCR1" from LSMW. All is well till I convert data. We have some speical characters in short text field at item level and even when I convert the data and display it from LSMW it looks fine, but when I processing idoc it's erroring out meaning if I have special character "Á" in IDOC during processing it's getting converted to "Á#" and it's screwing up the positions.

What I am not able to understand is when I am displaying the converted data in segment mode in LSMW it's getting displayed perfectly without extra "#", but when I am checking errored idoc from WE05 it has this new #. Did anyone come across this issue?

Your help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time.

Ok, the issue was with LSMW port (which was not marked as UNICODE) and because of which it's not translating special characters....
