How to handle special character in SAP CRM

Hi all,
I am facing a problem on SAP CRM Web UI - Contact Creation - When a special character is inserted on address fields of Business
Partner (e.g. ` ~ ^ etc.), the interface does not understand this character and changes it to a TRIANGLE on pressing enter key.
Kindly guide as how to handle it or something is missing in terms of (note or patch).
I am running on SAP CRM 7.0
Thanks,
Pradeep Singh Dhadwal

Hi Pradeep.
At the end of the day, a character is stored as a byte sequence on disk, and a code page defines the mapping between the byte sequence and any given character.The code page determines what character you can see and enter, therefore different code pages map different characters to the same byte sequence.
I suggest you to first check if your system is a Unicode system by checking the System menu->Status option->Unicode system field. I'll assume it is.
Then, please run report RSCP0018 (optionally also RSCPINST and then select Current NLS config pushbutton).
These reports will show you the actual configuration of languages and code pages of your Application Server. Please check that the correct languages and code pages are configured. If you need to know more about code pages configuration, please check Note 42305, which explains pretty well the whole process.
Kind regards, and good luck.

  • Handling Special Character in SAP PI

    Hi,
    I have a file to proxy scenario where I have used a complex UDF to get proper data at receiver side.
    Now, from the sender side I am getting  some special characters in the files and due to this the whole file is getting failed with mapping error.
    Is there any way to handle this thing.
    I dont want to use java mapping for this.
    Please help

    Hi Das - If you know the special char.. you can try using string replace function (if it's coming as part of some field)
    else you can try something like suggested in the below thread -
    ABAP Proxy sending special char.
    else as you know java mapping would be the other way..
    You can refer to the below blog for the same-

  • How to handle special characters in SQL statements

    How do you handle special charactes in a SQL statement? Here is an example:
    update table
    set notefield = 'This is Waldo's note'
    where keyfield = 7;
    Because the database connectivity vi accepts a string datatype wire, the ' in Waldo's note is seen as the end of string and an error is generated.
    Is there a way to tell labview that the ' is part of the string and not the string delimiter?
    Waldo

    If two single quotes don't work, try backslash single quote, like \'
    The backslash is often used as an escape character, meaning to treat the next character literally.

  • How to insert special character from Oracle form builder 10g

    Dear all,
    I need help. how to insert special character like 'Superscript or Subscript ' from oracle form builder 10g. I had try in Oracle form builder 6i with press ALT+ASCII code in the text item and it work, but in the oracle form builder 10g this method doesn't work... would you like to help me...somebody please...
    Best Regard,
    Dedy P.T.

    What do you mean by insert ... from Forms Builder? Do you mean you want to add it as text in a string of pl/sql code or as part of boiler plate text (label) or a value on the Property Palette?
    For special characters you would need set NLS_LANG to something that would support the characters you want to use. For the Builder to see the change, you would need to set NLS_LANG to something like:
    NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.UTF8
    This can be done in the Windows Registry or system. As I mentioned, this will only apply to the Builder and will have nothing to do with a running form. For running forms you would need to set this in default.env. As for things like super and sub scripts, these are font formats and not necessarily characters. For the most part, I don't believe these are supported in Forms.

  • How to handle defect items in sap sd..

    Hi Friends,
    How to handle defect items in sap sd..
    My requirement is some of the XYZ materials are damaged 10%.Some more materials(Material number is XYZ) are damaged to 20%.When sales order is created with these defect items,the system should pickup the defect items only?One more thing is for 10% damaged items,one price is given.For 20% damaged items,one more price is given and so on.How this will be configured in sap sd.
    We hav an idea that making these type of defects as scrap.Then create one more material number  as AXYZ(Defects of XYZ) and receipt without po.We can use the defects in sales order and soon.But how pricing will be set for different levels of damages?
    Any ideas,documents and settings required for this scenario and share any ideas
    Thanks in advace....VM

    Hi All,
    Thank you very much for your replies and sharing your valuable information
    Just I am giving all the meeting points and those are
    They donu2019t want to convert into scrap.
    One more point is that if materials are in batches then???
    When we create sales order that damaged one only should be picked by the system.
    Manual entering the price need to be stopped
    Without maintaining separate material for the damaged, any possibilities?
    We discussed abt Split valuation point .Is it suitable to this? then how?
    How to handle this we are thinking.
    Both Rithvikau2019s point and Jigneshu2019s point need to be considered, actually this is main issue. There are more chances of malpractices/confusion to the user as mentioned by Rithvika. Here one more constraint is more material codes required for 10%, 20%, 30%........90% damaged one for one material as said by Jignesh
    Actually I mentioned only as example 10% and 20% but have many.
    Any ideas how to proceed...
    Thanks and Regardsu2026VM

  • Issue with special characters in SAP CRM ICSS application.

    Hi ,
    I have issue with the special character in CRM web application.
    1. In CRM IC Webclient application(5.0) . i am copying and pasting some special characters in the description of the service request document. then this is saving the character as it is.
    But when i am opening the same service request in SAP CRM  ICSS(Internet Customer Self-Service) application, then the special characters are converting to different characters.
    I am not sure whether this is the right forum for this or not.
    Can anyone please suggest how can i correct this. Or is there any standard solution to handle the special characters in ICSS.
    Thanks

    misunderstood =/
    Original (Coming - output):  "<PAY_TXT>PAYκ Contact your bank or financial institution to make this payment from your cheque, savings, debit or transaction account.</PAY_TXT>"
    it's in output but what is data in database ?
    sorry but without knowing about source data for forming the xml i haven't ideas about your problem
    in db it's "TM " or "™" or ... ?
    Original (Coming - output):  "<PAY_TXT>PAYκ Contact your bank or financial institution to make this payment from your cheque, savings, debit or transaction account.</PAY_TXT>"
    Something like XAE or "K" after PAY Value in the xml tag and continued the text value.  (Tag value is not getting copied exactly here - i am sorry for that )
    that's ok. i need to see the problem not the data as is
    Expected (output):  "Here it needs to produce the "PAY TM" (Here "TM" should be super scripted to "PAY" Value in tag).
    as super scripted in xml?
    as idea - you can have <PAY_TXT>PAY TM</PAY_TXT> and in publisher set TM as super
