Permitted characters |

Dear Collegues!
I have an invalid Character in the InfoObject ZKIDNR. The Character givin me problems is |. It comes at the end of the Kind-number, f.ex 5000459372|, and only in one single record, so it is a mistake.
I get the error in ODS (0FIGL_O02), and because of this I can not activate my data.
I have added | in RSKC, but I am now wondering if I should add ALL_CAPITAL instead? Can anyone out there tell me if ALL_CAPITAL will take care of |?
Will sign Points!
Silje

Most of the times ALL_CAPITAL takes care of most of the invalid chars. There is a nice blog by Eugene dealing with RSKC.

Non permitted characters-data loading

In our system, we have a data issue where many records present in the entry level tables (Extraction Layer) have non-permitted characters in text fields.
we introduced a routine to filter these - but already existing ones will bring problems during the init.
for this we need a very tricky abap.
we have a FM to replace wrong characters.
So now I want to loop a whole databasetable and use the FM against a certain table field
We did something like that with abap already. But the biggest issue is that the tables consist of several million records - so we run into memory problems.
can you please provide a suggestion on how to handle this?
Your help will be appriciated

hi USER1249,
what about to use standard BW functionality - permitted characters - TA RSKC.
Via this you can maintain a set of permitted characters which will not be rejected by BW while loading.

Test for Permitted Characters in Transformation Routine

Hello,
Background: There is a data quality issue when loading 3rd party data to BW, which cannot be solved at source. Therefore, initial transformation rules when loading to data warehouse level DSO, should identify and deal with error values.
Possible Solution: Test validity of value within transformation routine via a custom function module.
Execution: Function module would require to check lowercase character handling of target InfoObject (RSDCHABAS-LOWERCASE) and scan source value against permitted character set (RSKC).
Questions: How can the permitted list of characters be returned within transformation routine? Is there an available delivered function module to handle accessing permitted character set?
I would appreciate any answers to the above questions or alternative suggestions to the above strategy.
Thanks -
Brendan.

There is a function module "RSKC_ALLOWED_CHAR_GET". Use SE37 to check it out.

Permitted characters 'ALL_CAPITAL'

We need to accept a large number of unusual characters, and hit the limit on the number of characters we can enter. Note 173241 explains that you can use ALL_CAPITAL (on its own) to get round the limit. This seems to work fine, but I'd like to know exactly what ALL_CAPITAL permits. I beleive that it accepts any characters that are accepted by the installed codes pages except miniscules letters. I presume it rejects non-displayable characters.
Anybody know how ALL_CAPITAL works?

Hello,
You created this message in 2004. I am wondering you remember it.
Your description is very interesting for me. Now we have plan to implement BW3.5 Unicode version which we will share in Asia/Pacific. So that our user will use it in Japanese, Korea, English and Germany.
We face data load problem between Japanese source system and BW Unicode system. We can solve this problem, as we set 'ALL_CAPITAL'.
My question is this 'ALL_CAPITAL' is varid for all language.
You mentioned the set of allowed characters depended on the codepage.
I am wondering the codepage means Logon language or system code page which is Unicode. If it is system code page, 'ALL_CAPITAL' may contain all language included in Unicode.

Check on permitted characters

Hi all,
In RSMO, when i go to below path
Menu>Edit>Init Update>>switch on/off character check>
I find the Switch On check for permitted character check box
What does this option mean?can any one explain.
Can any one help...

Hello,
If you are certain the data coming from R/3 is correct, then you can switch off this character check
But in practise, this is rarely the case, therefore it's recommended to have this character check switched on
See also SAP note 173241 and in particular the document on sapnet mentioned within.

# not accepted in permitted characters

Hello Guys,
I am fetching data from CRM wherein an anonymous user enters certain free text. While entering data, if he presses "enter" key then it is getting converted into #. Whereas I have maintained # in RSKC, still the error occurs while activating the data store object. Can anyone suggest me the solution for this problem? This is a recurring problem due to which I edit the record in PSA and then reload & reactivate it.
Thanks,
Utpal

HI
U can use ALL_CAPITAL in the RSKC toce and execute remember it will allow all the special characteristics

Hexidecimal Non-Allowed Characters in a Unicode System

We have a function module that we've written to replace non-permitted characters with a space in transfer rules. We see a lot of invisible hexidecimal characters coming in free form text fields. This work great for English. However, we have a Unicode system with other languages installed. We are also getting the hex characters in other character sets.
Has anyone dealt with this issue and if so what was you solution?
Thanks!

Hello aLaN,
how r u ?
Hey we have faced the problem with Hexadecimal characters, but not the same issue. In our case the problem was in the Source System. In the DB Tables we had some unwanted characters, that was showing some errors while data loading, particularly ERROR 18.
So we resolved it by changing the Source System data.
I have already posted for the hexadecimal issue.... the replies was
I think this is related to Invalid character issues.. or SPaces setting in RSKC..
may be you want to look at eh following post..
Re: invalid characters
/people/siegfried.szameitat/blog/2005/07/18/text-infoobjects-part-1
Example:
let us say..
1. Check in RSKC for allowed characters..
2. Add a code in the update rule to restrict the texts contains..
!"%&''()*+,-./:;<=>?_0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ' are allowed characters in RSKC transaction then other than the above character is 'Invalid' including the smaller case letters and will throw the hex.. error.
since this is from database system even 'NULL' datatype from there is not visble to the eyes and can cause the failure.
Hope this helps
Best Regards....

Error: 'InfoObject ZDATE contains invalid characters in record 1 in value'

Dear friends,
When I am uploading data from oracle datasource (in BW 3.5) I am getting an error 'InfoObject ZDATE contains invalid characters in record 1 in value'. There are no illegal characters in the date instead the date field is blank in datasource. There are other date fields technically the same as ZDATE with blank values but they dont throw an error when scheduler runs.
Though when I manually upload the data, it's loaded successfully.
Please suggest where can the error be?
Regards,
Amit Srivastava

You have 2 options:
1. Corect your data for the characteristics that give errors.
Or
2. go to SPRO in BW - Netweaver - BW - general settings - maintain permitted characters.
In this screen, you maain tain any special characteristic that you the system to recognise and accept. In your case, take your characteristics that give error and add to this.

Invalid characters erros

Hi Experts,

Tried RSKC ALL_CAPITAL , still struck with the same error.
Can anyone help me to resovle this...

How do I follow up on a book uploaded to bookstore?

This was about 1 week-ten days ago. Nothing yet in store. Is there some way I can check on it? As I understand things, it shouldn't take that long.

I have just published my first book having been put though a process of jumping through a few hurdles. What I found is you open the Ticket which displays the issue and top right you will see a contact us and using that process I found that I got a reply within 24 hours.
There are a number of issues that they are really sensitive about:
-     competing websites so you have to make sure you don't have a URL pointing to any other store
-     the size of the cover art which I after two attempts had accepted at 1400px x 1400px
-     they also are describing the 'Preview' file by a number of different names which can lead to confusion. For example the 'Preview' file is also called the 'Sample' [try before you buy] which must accompany the Publication when you download to iTunes Connect.
-     Spelling
-     Use of some non permitted characters and I guess that might also extend to font's [not sure about that]
-     Which words in the must start with an Upper Case Letter 'A Dreamer's Vision':
-     in the Sub Title the first letter of the first word that does not require upper case [and there is a list of them in the manual'] an example: 'and'
-     the meta file must be absolutely spot on.
Hope I have been of some assistance
Cheers Ant..

Special character

Hi friends..
Im getting the following error while ods activation.
Value 'AMISH GANDHI#4604 ' (hex. '41004D004900530048002000470041004E0044004800490009') of characteristic 0POSTXT contains invalid.
In ODS and PSA,i dont find # value,and instead of # there is a small square in the PSA and ODS and when i try to copy it in word i just get a space.
What is that box like character?
Im planning to use the following routine to control the special characters as given in one of the forum discussion with ALL_capital in RSKC.
Will this solve my problem??

Hi Ragu
You need to use following transfer routine for this Infoobject in transfer rules. Then load the data in ODS and try activating data in ODS.
You need to replace XX with you transfer structure field.

L_ALL_ALLOWED_CHAR(140) TYPE C,
L_RESULT_STR_LEN TYPE I,
L_STR_INCREMENT TYPE I.

IF L_ALL_ALLOWED_CHAR IS INITIAL.
SELECT SINGLE * FROM RSALLOWEDCHAR
INTO L_USER_ALLOWED_CHAR
WHERE ALLOWKEY = 'S'.
CONCATENATE C_SAP_ALLOWED_CHAR
L_USER_ALLOWED_CHAR-ALLOWCHAR
INTO L_ALL_ALLOWED_CHAR.
ENDIF.
RESULT = TRAN_STRUCTURE-XX.
TRANSLATE RESULT TO UPPER CASE.
L_RESULT_STR_LEN = STRLEN( RESULT ).
L_STR_INCREMENT = 0.
WHILE L_STR_INCREMENT <> L_RESULT_STR_LEN.
IF NOT RESULT+L_STR_INCREMENT(1) CO L_ALL_ALLOWED_CHAR.

Problem in Loading Material Hierarchy

Hi,
I am having problem while loading material hierarchy from R/3. Whenever i execute infopackage for infosource 0MATERIAL, I am getting following error msg.
<b>The node name for ID 00005983 contains invalid characters</b>
Diagnosis :
Node name DVD77ELR-D2        with node ID 00007774 contains lower case
letters or characters that are not permitted.
System response:
Processing was terminated
Procedure:
Change the node name so that it only contains permitted characters.
Procedure for System Administration
As a result the Request is in RED state.
Please suggest any solution ASAP.
Regards
Prasad
Note: Ponits will be awarded for fast and correct response.

Hi...
Thank you all for reply.
I have solved the problem. But this was not related to RSKC.
This was due to a material code DVD77ELR-D2 which was not created correctly. I have removed the hierarchy assigned to this material and marked it for deletion.
Now the hierarchy has been loaded perferctly.

Dynamic queue selection with Asynchronous RFC call

Hi Experts,
I have a new requirement in designing the business process thru XI. The scenario is posting production orders from a web service thru XI to R3 ( RFC calls). The requirement is that the production orders may come from different plant (Plant and production line combination). So in order to faciliate the load balancing we need to dynamically allot all the process orders from a Plant to single or two queues ( by queues i mean the queuing of the RFC requests with QoS = EO or EOIO). So dynamic selection of queues (XBIXnn) is possible in XI ?.
Please let me know in case you need further clarification on this
Thanks in advance

Rajesh,
Some more interesting read from,
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/43/65ce41ae343e2be10000000a1553f6/content.htm
<i>Define Quality of Service (EOIO)
8. Specify EOIO (Exactly Once in Order) as the quality of service, as required.
Messages are then delivered in the same sequence that they are sent in by the integration process.
a. Specify a queue in the Queue Name field.
You can choose the name of the queue yourself.
Max. length: 16 characters
Permitted characters are alphanumeric characters and the following special characters:
/ (slash)
_ (underscore)
- (hyphen)
All send steps that have the same queue name are delivered in the sequence that they are sent in by the integration process.</i>
Should be possible if you use a BPM.

Optimize function to correct a string to be converted to number

Hi,
I have imported almost 6.5 milion rows into a table (using sql loader) from a flat file (which contains the NUL caracter (ASCII 0) - not space, not NULL). To make the load easier I set the datatype as VARCHAR2 for all columns. For columns with string data I used a TRIM(REPLACE(field,' ','')) to get rid of the NUL and it works.
But for the column that must be converted to numeric I am trying to use to_number () function and it fails because the numeric data is mixed with other characters.
To solve this problem I created this function :
CREATE OR REPLACE
FUNCTION string_to_number
(p_string_source IN VARCHAR2 ) RETURN VARCHAR2 IS v_output_string varchar2(150);
-- This function takes a string as parameter and has 2 outputs:
-- 1. If the source string cannot be converted to number throw 'Error' as the output message to identify the line with the issue
-- 2. A string that can be converted successfully as Number;
-- The necessity of this function came up after an import from a flat file where the resulted string contained strange characters shown as spaces
--check if '-' is exists and is on the first position or if in the source string exists more than one '.'
-- ASCII codes accepted in the string :
-- 45 '-' ; 46 '.' ; from 48 (0) to 57 (9)
BEGIN
DECLARE v_minus VARCHAR2(1);
v_dot INTEGER;
BEGIN
SELECT substr(p_string_source,1,1) INTO v_minus FROM dual;
SELECT instr(p_string_source,'.',1,2) INTO v_dot FROM dual;
--check if '-' is exists and is on the first position or if in the source string exists more than one '.'
-- ASCII codes accepted in the string :
-- 45 '-' ; 46 '.' ; from 48 (0) to 57 (9)
IF v_minus NOT IN ('-','.','0','1','2','3','4','5','6','7','8','9')
-- or there are two dots '.' in the string
OR v_dot <> 0
THEN v_output_string := 'Error';
ELSE
BEGIN
-- for every character of the string we'll check if it's a number to add it to the outcome string;
-- if it's not an accepted character it will be ignored
DECLARE v_length_source int := length(p_string_source);
v_counter int :=1;
v_add_in_number VARCHAR2(1);
BEGIN
FOR v_counter IN 1..v_length_source LOOP
BEGIN
SELECT SUBSTR(p_string_source,v_counter,1) into v_add_in_number from dual;
IF v_add_in_number IN ('-','.','0','1','2','3','4','5','6','7','8','9')
THEN v_output_string := v_output_string ||v_add_in_number;
END IF;
END;
END LOOP;
END;
-- in case the string is in format '.00034' we'll add a 0 in front of the string to be accepted as argument by TO_NUMBER function
IF v_minus = '.'
THEN v_output_string := '0'||v_output_string;
ELSE
BEGIN
v_output_string := v_output_string;
END;
END IF;
END;
END IF;
END;
RETURN v_output_string;
END;
The main idea is to check every string (the parameter will be the value from the Amount column) for permitted characters that compose a numeric value:
1. To begins with numeric, '-' or '.'
2. To have only one '.' (as a decimal separator);
3. To compare every character of the string with the permitted ones - the non-compliant will be rejected
This way the resulting string (v_output_string) will be successfully converted to number
I admit that I don't have much experience using PL/SQL that is why I am asking your help to optimize this function to improve its performance. Could you help me on this, please ?
TIA,
JohnP

Perform a function here on all 6.5 million of rows will never be efficient.
I would modify Peter's approach a little bit,
1. Load directly into staging t1 without any checking (or create an external table)
2. Transfer from t1 to a list partitioned t2 with list values in ('yes', 'no','null','other')
--simple check using translate()
3. Apply your special function only on rows in the 'other' partition (hopefully much fewer rows left)
--other checks
