Environment
ITMS 8.5, 8.6
Cause
The problem was due to characters in the certificate name, they were not escaped so were breaking picker output XML.
Resolution
1. To verify this information, please run the following query:
select * from Inv_Digital_Certificate_Details
2. Look at the name column. You're looking for a name that contains an escaped character, such as quotation marks.
This issue is fixed in ITMS 8.6 RU1.
As a workaround, you can update the database as follows:
update Inv_Digital_Certificate_Details
set name = 'Use the same name without the escaped character'
where _ResourceGUID = 'ResourceGUID of the impacted Name'
