Record getting rejected due to additional delimiter

Post by bhargav_dd »

Hi all,

I have a record getting rejected due to additional delimiter found in name
field.

I have a record:

"100774066","M "TORREZ, MRS"","21.82","7186551241 ","TORREZ, MRS","BD",/
/,"5576"

The field "M "TORREZ, MRS"" is one field. but since file is comma delimited
record getting rejected. how to read these field as one field?
And same thing with "TORREZ, MRS" also.

Please give me some advise

Thanks.

Hi ,

From my research there is no solution , may be someone can help this.
I also faced same situation and I asked Business to change the delimiter instead of comma ask them to send ~ (tilde). Becasuse this ~ symbol won't come in name.

An option is to use a Server job, the Sequential File stage there is more accomdating of issues like this for some reason.

Or you can use a server Sequential File stage in a server Shared Container in your parallel job.
