Issue/Introduction

Using bulk loader to load users from a CSV file containing special characters (such as French accents) does not load the special characters into Identity Manager.

Environment

Release: 14.2, 14.3, 14.4
Component: Identity Manager

Resolution

The default encoding for CSV files in ANSI and that excludes any special characters.  Use a csv file with UTF8 encoding to include the special characters.
