BIA Index creation error due to invalid characters

54 Views

Hi All,

While creating BIA index on an Infocube the index creation process fails with the following message.

Index for table '/BIC/SSPSEGTXT' is being processed

A character set conversion is not possible.

Parallel indexing process terminated (Task: '4')

Turns out this field is a text field and has characters such as * and + in the description,which is causing this problem.

How do I proceed with the index creation.

Options I have are:

a) Get rid of this field.. Impossible since there are a few queries that require this information.

b) Run the Database scan tool RSI18N_Search to eliminate foreign characters ....but this does not work for me.

Can anyone suggest some other option or a resolution to this problem. Or If anyone has prior experience of working with the program RSI18N_Search please let me know.

Regards
