Special characters in XI

[mateen_popatia]

Hi,

Does anybody have the list of characters not supported by XI? I am using XI 7.0

I am specifically looking for Special Characters which come in the payload and are seen in SXMB_MONI.

Thanks

Hi,

XI supports Unicode compatibility also so I don't think there will be any list but go through below link to deal with some special characters in PI 7.0

Refer

How To…Work with Character Encodings in Process Integration

Thanks guys, but i believe my question was not clear enough..so here goes..

I mean to say special characters like ! @ # $ % ^ & * ? " ' etc..

If I am using ABAP mapping then are all these characers valid?I am sure some of them are not because in ABAP mapping at times we do get an error saying " Error occurred during character conversion" . But i dont know which ones are they.

Hi,

XI does not support special characters '&' and '>'.

This is not XI specific.

See this list:

I am not sure..but I beleive there is no such list of characters...even if you send japanese char...it will be visible in moni...and your transformation works fine..

thanks
