Hi Hari,

Is there such a thing as character which is always invalid ? Wouldn't this depend on the context of the data you are working with ?

Do you have a concrete example of what you mean: and what invalid characters you need to check for ?

Cheers

John

Hi John,

CSR's while taking Address from the Customers over the Phone Interaction, often they get confused while entering the single apostrophe ( ' ) with ( ` ). At the Service End, Address fields failing to get parsed due to these confusable/invalid characters.

Actually, I'm yet to get more details on this. Once I get those details, I can share you an example.

Thanks

  • @stripSpecialChars
  • @(Pega-RULES:String).stripNonAlphabeticChars()
  • @pxReplaceAllViaRegex
  • pxContainsViaRegex
