BAD_IC_UNEXPECTED_CHARACTERS Probable Cause The parser found unexpected data within identified segments in an EDI interchange. In most cases the cause is white space. The cause could be other characters that are inappropriate for starting a segment tag. In most EDI standards, syntax rules do not permit surplus bytes between the terminator character of a segment and the tag of the next. This includes—but is not limited to—CR\LF sequences following defined segment terminators.
