Summary :
The SAP Note discusses the function module SCP_REPLACE_STRANGE_CHARS used for transliterating characters across different code pages, specifically 1146, 1155, and 1156. It provides details on how transliteration is performed and the supported characters, which can be found in the "translit_.htm" attachments or by running the ZMITBCE008 report. The note includes corrections made in September 2009, addressing issues with specific Unicode characters and their expected representations. Also, it suggests updating the transliteration code pages by importing support packages or uploading new code page definitions from the provided zip file. Future enhancements to these code pages are not planned; custom solutions must be developed independently.
