MWM v1 Admin Tool Data Validation For Special Characters

(Doc ID 1927222.1)

Last updated on SEPTEMBER 17, 2014

Applies to:

Oracle Utilities Mobile Workforce Management - Version 1.4.5 to 1.5.0 [Release 1.4 to 1.5]
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Goal

Many meter related values in the database contain special characters (space, colon, etc). The MWM v1 Admin Tool will not allow these values with special characters to be entered. The following error is displayed when these values are attempted: "Validation failed for Device Category. Illegal character(s) found: ",':'."

Why were these characters allowed to be used in the past but we're not allowing them now?  How can these characteres be allowed?
