Payment References with Special Characters

Hussein982

Hi All: 

 

I have an invoice and payment file and I need to create a computed field that flags for special characters and use FIND function to search for “*,” “#,” “%,” “@” and “DO NOT USE.”

 

How can I customize this to my requirement.

 

Appreciate the help in advance.

 

Cheers,

Hi @Hussein982 

 

You can use RegEx_Match function at Formula tool.

 

IF REGEX_Match([Field1], ".*[\*#%@].*")=0
THEN "DO NOT USE" 
ELSE "USE" 
ENDIF
