[Former Member]

Hi

I am getting the error when i am loding the data into cube

in PSA only for some records marked as red, the following is the error message

You are trying to load the invalid characteristic value REO 1000/Profit.

Can you give me any suggessions.

Hi,

Usually the symol "# " means no data,check in sourcesytem(rsa3) whwther the corresponding field has dat aor not...if not the required data has to be maintained

Hi Swapna,

the data is there for that char i.e REO 1000/Profit.

analysis/1000///700081 in PSA.

Hi,

If the problem is due to "/" . then you have to include special characters(/) in permitted characher list (RSKC).

Hi Shaliny,

You can add the speical character '/' in RSKC and reload the data. That will solve this problem but if my understanding is correct, it will allow '/' to be loaded for all data loads which could create a problem sometimes.

Another option is to edit this particular record in the PSA and remove the '/'. Hope this helps.

Hi Sumith,

the following standard characters are valid in characteristic

values by default:

!"%&''()*+,-./:;<=>?_0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ.

i think the symbal / is not a problem while loading

Hi,

Also add lowercase characters to RSKC list.

Hi ,

As a work around you can use RSKC transaction to accept invalid character

if not,edit the data in psa and push the data to the respective target

also the dat aneeds to be corrected in source sytem (ckeck in RSA3)

Hi,

we have been working on a transfer routine for cleaning up data as it is loaded and have been able to trap all the bad data and cleanse it, except for some hex characters. They display as ##, but that is not really what the characters are - they are hex values we cannot decipher. we think they are carriage return and line feed.

Thanks,
