2 -In this microlearning, we’ll cover how to define the character set in eMagiz to ensure proper data processing. A character set is essentially a collection of characters supported by software and hardware, and different systems may use different sets. eMagiz defaults to UTF-8, but you may need to adjust this if you're dealing with systems that use other character sets. We’ll guide you through configuring the character set for file-based connectivity to ensure seamless communication with external systems.
2 +In some cases, the input you receive or the output that you need to send to an external party cannot handle all characters or the input or output is written with the help of a character set. In this microlearning, we will learn how you can define the character set for file-based connectivity to ensure that you can process and deliver files according to the specifications.

41 41  * eMagiz talks in default UTF-8 as a character set and assumes everyone else also does this
42 42  * In cases of mismatch correct is at the point where you talk with the other system (i.e. entry or exit)
43 43  * eMagiz provides several components within which you can define the character set
