    Hi Accountant666 

     

    Thank you for the details.

     

    This error is normally caused by an invalid character somewhere in the TPAR file, including extra spaces. Please look up this line number using Notepad++  by following the steps given below:

     

    1. Open the TPAR file in notepad ++

    2. From the Search menu choose Find Characters in Range

    3. Select Non-ASCII Characters and click Find

      Notepad ++ will then display where the invalid character is.

    4. Click on the top of the notepad ++ application and the cursor will flash just after the invalid character. In the example below the invalid character is a SPACE. 

    5. Repeat until all invalid characters are removed.



      After this is done, you can fix the data in AccountRight and recreate the TPAR file. If your file is online and you are still having issue, we can run a script to identify which supplier cards contain invalid characters. Please confirm the last 4 digits of your serial number, and the company file ID number so we can assist further.

        Hi Accountant666 

         

        It's a little hard to tell what the TPAR file has failed to upload. However, it generally fails due to unusual characters. I do notice that it appears you have a dollar sign with what I assume is one of the suppliers (Double Story$3500INC,  5 Stages). I would be looking at removing that and also the comma. 

        Let us know how you get on that TPAR lodgement after making those changes.
