Special characters for projects

Hi experts,
Kindly explain to me how to define multiple Special characters in project system.
Regards,
Shynu John

Hi,
Do you mean Special characters for the Project coding mask?
If that is the case, you can define the special characters in OPSK. A maximum of 8 special characters can be defined in it.
And then create the project coding mask in OPSJ using those special characters as per your requirement. Alpha-numeric and numeric characters combination can be used along with the special characters while creation of coding mask.

Kabir

How to restrict special characters for a specific column

Dear gurus,
i have a table emp with a field field_1
in this particular field_1 is an address column where data can be like '12 st first floor' but suppose mistakenly user has entered the data as '12 st first floor & ' it should be restricted (not using trigger but can this be possible by using constraints )so for this how can we restrict the special characters not to get entered into the column.
regards,
friend

Another way of doing it.
drop table test_table;
create table test_table (col varchar2(50));
alter table test_table add constraint chk_address check (NOT regexp_like(col, '[[:punct:]]+'));
insert into test_table
(select 'some text' col from dual);
1 rows inserted.
insert into test_table
(select 'some text!' col from dual);

Escape special characters for OData response

Hi all,
I'm facing a problem on HTTP response when some special characters are in my entity fields.
For example I've got a Edm.String field which has characters like ###, ", < (two number signs ## are ok, but three invoke an error)
When I set output format to xml via URI parameter $format=xml, I get following error:
<message xml:lang="en">In the context of Data Services an unknown internal server error occured</message>
Exception /IWCOR/CX_DS_INTERNAL_ERROR in class /IWCOR/CL_DS_EP_WRITER_OUTPUT method /IWCOR/IF_DS_EP_WRITER_OUTPUT~WRITE and Line 39
If I use JSON as output format, HTTP response code is 200!!, but payload just ends on the character which cannot be interpreted:
(ABAP)-JSON generator can handle double quotes much better than XML format:
How can I escape these output strings, without adding chars which will appear in response payload?
Thanks,
Steffen

Hi Uwe & Ron,
thanks for your ideas, but maybe we're not talking about binary data?! This field is an example from TADIR table.
OData entity definition for this field:
Versid
Edm.String
0
0
20
ABAP field definition:
Data Type        CHAR - Character String
No. Characters       20
Decimal Places        0
Output Length        20
Convers. Routine    <empty>
Uwe did you mean another debugger view?
SE16 output for this line:
What if I want to store and receive data with these special chars like ####, ", <, >,... in a ABAP char field (respective OData Edm.String)?
Thanks,
Steffen

Special characters for iweb

Anyone know where the umlaut is?

Tom, Maybe it was the font....what do you think?
Yes, at least some versions of Bitsumishi seem to be "challenged" in terms of character repertoire:

No way to use that one for anything beyond ascii. Perhaps you can find a more complete version somewhere.

Special characters for 0BATCH

Dear Gurus,
      For our 0BATCH characteristic there is a loading problem with value "#". We need to restrict the users for not to input value "#". For BATCH as I know "#" is not acceptible. Here my question , is it acceptable if we have "#" along with characteristics as below ?
Eg: 1) test#   2) #test 3) te#st
    Can please anyone tell me which one is acceptable by BW.
Rgds,
Ram

Hi,
For some Materials Batch is not there in ECC, the nit will display "#" inreports, so if you restrict it in reports, you may get wrong information, because eventhogh the Materail Transaction data is therte in system, but you are not displaying, so first correct the Material bathes which are not created Batches in ECC.
In report you can Exclude it, for users also in Authorizations, find the role where the Batch is loacetd and don't give "#", so at the time of user input it will tell you don't have authorization.
Thanks

Sending special characters to non-unicode non-sap system: user exit

Hello All,
We are sending data from a SAP unicode system to a non-sap non-unicode system via IDOC. The idoc is standard idoc GLMAST which contains gl account information.
Some text fields contained in this idoc can contain special Polish characters. If they are sent unchanged to the non-unicode system, they give problems in the destination system.
What we would like to do is to build a user exit to convert these special characters, for example : 'é' becomes 'e', ....
We used enhancement object ALE00001, function EXIT_SAPLBD11_001 and implemented it, but it seems this exit is not called. Can this user exit be used for this functionality?
We also tried to change in SM59 the type of system of the destination to non-unicode, so that SAP replaces those special characters by #. But, than the error 02. Codepage not found is given in the idoc. Note: the link to the external system is not set up yet, so no actual connection is possible. Is this why we receive this error, and will this functionality work in the end with a non-sap system?
Thanks for helping.
Kind Regards,
Bart Pelsmaekers

I faced this problem in many project i implement below logic.
DATA: c_splchar(2) VALUE '90',
        c_defaultchar(1) type c VALUE '#'.
You have to move one by one character to this function module
          CALL FUNCTION 'URL_ASCII_CODE_GET'
               EXPORTING
                    trans_char = spl_char
               IMPORTING
                    char_code = spl_code.
All non unicode(Better you check) are always greater than 90.
         if spl_code is gt c_splchar.
            move c_defaultchar to c_splchar.
         endif.

German Special Characters not displayed correctly in RTF using code

Hi ,
In my code we are using webdynpro method
WDResourceFactory.createResource(
byte[] data, String resourceName,WDWebResourceType
Type)
Here in our code we are implementing this as
ITemplateElement templateEl = wdContext.currentTemplateElement();
WDResourceFactory.createResource(
templateEl.getReportData(),
reportName.substring(0, reportName.lastIndexOf('.')),
WDWebResourceType.RTF); reportName.lastIndexOf('.')),
Here templateEl.getReportData() returns a set of bytes which has some
german special characters.
We are generating the Bytes using String.getByes(),Just before
String text = new String(in);
collector.putBusinessObject(boName, bo);
reportDocTemplateParser(collector, text);
collector.removeBusinessObject(boName);
String generatedText = collector.generateRTF();
out = (null != generatedText) ? generatedText.getBytes() : null;
The out put is the if i am giving a word with german special characters for eg:
Betriebsübersichten it first gets converted to bytes and then passes through method WDResouseFactory.createResourse(.....) which creates an RTF file and finally in the RTF file it appears as Betriebsbbersichten the special character is not displayed correctly.
i came to knw that while converting into bytes we have to make it RTF supported encoding.ie for eg generatedText.getBytes('cp1252').i even tried with other charactersets like ISO-8859,cp1253 and so on but none of them worked.
It would be really great if you could suggest the needful.
Thanks and Regards
Neeta

I soved this by using get_data function of response object. Then converting this into ISO-8859-1 charset.
See code below.
DATA : lv_encoding   TYPE abap_encoding,
          lv_conv       TYPE REF TO cl_abap_conv_in_ce,
          lv_x_string   type xstring.
lv_x_string = pv_http_client->response->get_data( ).
    lv_encoding = '1100'.
    lv_conv = cl_abap_conv_in_ce=>create(
                          encoding = lv_encoding
                             input = lv_x_string ).
    lv_conv->read( IMPORTING data = pv_result ).

Finding special characters in a columns using SQL

Hi,
I have a column (Object_Name) which accepts character values. I want to find out such kind of records which has special charaters in my columns Object_Name. Please let me know, how do I write SQL statement for the same.
Thanks for your time in advance.

To find, for example, a comma in the OBJECT_NAME column try:
SELECT OBJECT_NAME
FROM MYTABLE
WHERE INSTR(OBJECT_NAME,',')>0;To find multiple special characters, for example @ # + - _ , . : ; at same time try:
SELECT OBJECT_NAME
FROM MYTABLE
WHERE INSTR(TRANSLATE(OBJECT_NAME,'@#+-_,.:;','@@@@@@@@@'),'@')>0;add a @ to the string '@@@@@@@@@' each time you add a character to the string '@#+-_,.:;'

Special characters issue in output XML - file adapter - SOA 10.1.3.4

Hi,
I use a DB adapter and File adapter to retreive data from database and create output XML file.
For the database record which have special characters (for example ' , <, >), it will just output the same character in XML file, which cause other system to reject this XML file because of those characters.
Anyone have this issue ? How can i resolve that ?
Thanks

Try converting the characters to < and >. This should work. Make sure the stand-alone & character is converted to & amp; (written with space as HTML will convert it back to &).

Special Characters in phone numbers - 6085

I have looked through the entire User's Guide for my 6085 and cannot find how to store special characters, such as pause, in the telephone number. Lots of info about special characters for texting but not phone number. Is this feature not available?

Pressing the '*' key 3 times gets you a 'p' (2 second pause), and pressing it 4 times gets you a 'w' (wait).
NB: I've not tried this on a S40 phone like the 6085 so test it before taking my word for it!
