invalid characters

[phil_moh]

We're on BI7.

I have loaded the record from Flat File into PSA, no problem.

Now when I try to load the redord from PSA into InfoCube via DTP, I hits the following error:

"

Diagnosis

Only the following standard characters are valid in characteristic

values by default:

!"%&''()*+,-./:;<=>?_0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ.

Furthermore, characteristic values that only consist of the character #

or that begin with ! are not valid.

You are trying to load the invalid characteristic value Capacitor 17 &

(hexidecimal representation 436170616369746F72203137 ).

System Response

When I check the value of the record, it is as follow:

Capacitor 17

So dont see any problem with it. Please advise what is wrong and how can I solve it?

Thank you.

The PSA would accept invalid character even that is not valid in BW. You will get error only when you run DTP.

Check your Source file. Open the file in Text editor as suggested by D.H. Snellink. You would find some clue. The same happened to us once. Generally You wonu2019t notice any invalid character in PSA entry even it exists.
