Comments in IP with special characters

Former Member

Hello,

I followed the " How To... Flexibly Change Characteristic Values and Comments in BI Integrated Planning" for Comments and works great.

But when I try to enter some special characters along with the test - Ex: Test ( ) in the input field web item, it gives an error saying "Input is in invalid format". Though it understand some of other spl characters like &%@...

Is there a way where we can specify it to allow special characters for the input field? RSKC has ALL_CAPITAL and the changes made here doesn't seem to change anything in portal plan query. Any help is appreciated!

Thanks!

Hello,

The solution described in the how to paper is a workaround that has certain restrictions. As we are using a characteristic to hold the comments we are restricted to the allowed characters for BW characteristic values. Thus you cannot use special characters.

Best regards,

Gerd
