In my opinion & experience below mentioned special characters ( ")also to be avoided since they create issues while extracting data into MS excel spreadsheets

| in the middle of a description since it will create a separate column while downloading into a spreadsheet file in T-Codes like MC.9

" at the end of description since the data will be combined with available data in subsequent rows while extracting into a spreadsheet file
