invalid character

[Former Member]

hi all,

i have trasfered into PSA data from R3 using custom extractor. One of the field of the datasource is Z_AENAM a infoobject of type char 12.

After loading data into PSA i try to transfer them into ODS target.

Unfortunately, the activation process is failed because there are invalid character into object Z_AENAM.

So i'm Looking data into PSA and apparently it's ok, now how find the invalid character into the Z_AENAM object, and how avoid their load into BW system?

thanks

during the activation process

Hi Luigi,

If it is a special character like "-", "@", etc.. you need to add them in RSKC transaction.

the string is 'Abbau-' and all of these character is in the list; probably is a hide character

hi Luigi,

to identify invalid character,

you may go to monitor tab 'details',

expand the last node, you may see detail error there,

it may lower case, or special character,

tcode RSKC type in ALL_CAPITAL to accept all special character, to handle lower case, use method routine for that infoobject in transfer rules and code

result = tran_structure-/bic/zaenam.

translate result to uppercase.

hope this helps.

method routine for that infoobject in transfer rules and code

result = tran_structure-/bic/zaenam.

translate result to uppercase.

i don't understand where i do it, in the infoobject control panel?

hi Luigi,

change transfer rules,

currently infoobject z_aenam map to z_aenam,

change the method to 'routine' and create routine for it, and put that code. maintain also RSKC with ALL_CAPITAL.

hope this helps.

i must type ALL_CAPITAL in the box instead of the single character list

Pls check what you have set in T-code RSKC; usually ALL_CAPITAL covers the most invalid chars excepts the europen chars.

HOpe this helps.
