Summary :
The SAP Note addresses issues with source text tables containing tabulators and # characters, often inserted via "Cut & Paste", which should not be present in ABAP sources. It discusses the utility of the CLM_FIND_AND_CONV_WRONG_CHAR function module in correcting this by replacing tabs and # characters with blank spaces. Specifically, the error arises when uploading correction instructions from systems using Web AS Release 6.10 or 6.20, as tabs are improperly converted to # characters. The function module is available through the correction workbench or Support Package for these releases, and can be manually created using transaction SE37 if not present.
