Issue/Introduction

Problem:

I receive an error when I create a password policy with the name of a company and company name contains special char "&"

 

Environment:  

ALL

 

Cause: 

"&" and "*" are not permitted in password policy name as they are reserved characters.

 

 

Resolution/Workaround:

A possible workaround for the ampersand is to use "and" instead of "&"
