Anaplan picking up double quotes instead of single quotes in a line item name

Hi all,

Just wanted to check if anyone else is also facing this issue. off late if a line item name is having single quote (') in it, then if that line item gets referenced, Anaplan replaces that single quote (') with double quotes (") in the target place.

I faced this issue while drafting a complex formula in notepad and copy pasting it in Anaplan. but i checked and found that this happens even if you reference a line item directly in Anaplan.

Attached is a screenshot showing the same.

Hope this can be investigated and corrected in future releases.

    Hi Kavin,
    This is not the case here. The quote is not getting added to front and back to the special characters.
    I have used other special character line (eg: €), and there the quotes were not added. In my scenario, the quotes got added only at the end (not at front), and a single quote gets appended only at the end.
    The scenario that you have mentioned is agreed but is a different scenario.

    Kind Regards

    Hi Usman,
    I have tried other special characters, but this additional quote is appearing only when having a single quote special character ('). The single quote need not be at the end of the line name but could be anywhere in the name.
    I have raised it in the 'Idea Exchange' portal.

    Regards
