PRODUCT:
--------------
Siebel CRM 8.1.1.11.4

ISSUE:
----------------------

Customer uses Siebel MQ Series Server Receiver component to pick up messages from IBM MQSeries queue, dispatches it to UCM workflow process for executing insert/updates to Contact records.  When the message contains special characters such as "...PeÑÃ..." in the Contact name or other fields, this causes the Siebel MQ Series Server Receiver task to fail.

The example message on the queue with the special character that caused the error is the following:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ListOfSwiPersonIO Language="ENU" Locale="English - United States" EnterpriseServerName="ST_UCM_SPD" ExternalSystemId="SOAP" ExternalSourceId="SOAP" RetryNum="5">
    <Contact operation="Upsert">
        <LanguageSpoken>ENU</LanguageSpoken>
        <Id>5666933</Id>
        <LastName>PeÑÃ</LastName>
        ...
        ...
