Handling Currency Symbol 'u00A3' in XI

[Former Member]

Hi,

The file that we are using in Inbound to SAP scenario is likely to have '£'

symbol. When the file goes through Content Conversion XI takes it as '‚£'

which is two characters long.

This is causing the mapping of other fields to get overlapped.

Question also lies on how SAP is going to Handle this £ Symbol while posting

the IDOC or keeping it in internal tables.

Do any body has any thoughts on how can we resolve this?

Cheers

What is the encoding type that was used in the file comm. channel ?

I think it should have been - ISO-8859-1.

Please see file adpater properties from the sap help...

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/e3/94007075cae04f930cc4c034e411e1/frameset.htm

check the 'File Type' property...

Thanks.

Hi,

The problem is resolved by using Encoding type UTF-8.

Thanks...
