MIF loading framework is XML-based, thus when loading flat data the first step taken by the framework is to convert the flat structure to a hierarchical XML structure.
We should be aware that some of the invalid characters [ < , > , ' , &, "] need to be avoided in flat file.
If you place a character like "<" inside an XML element, it will generate an error because the parser interprets it as the start of a new element.
When these characters are used in the flat file, we need to replace them with the entity references.
< < less than
> > greater than
& & ampersand
' ' apostrophe
" " quotation mark
Incorrect Data: "Multiple Assets & Locations"
Correct Data: "Multiple Assets & Locations"
