records are found, an attachment is added that is identical to the previous run of the fulfillment
task. This occurs whether the previous run is from a previous wave of a recurring On-demand Campaign

File and database encoding must be set properly for Campaign in order for Distributed Marketing to use the files properly | DEF021467 | When users add a Mail List process or Call List processto a flowchart in Campaign, they can
specify the output file name for the process. To enable Distributed Marketing to use the files
properly, the file name format, and the file and database encoding must be set to suit your
operating environment. In Marketing Platform, the systemStringEncoding property specifies the encoding that is used to interpret values (such as file system paths and file names) coming into Campaign from the operating system as well as the encoding in which Campaign presents values back to the operating system. To verify file encoding, in Marketing Platform, open the Configuration Manager and navigate to Campaign/unicaACListener/systemStringEncoding. Provide an encoding value compatible with your operating environment. To ensure proper database encoding, navigate toCampaign/partitions/partition/dataSources/[data_source_name]>StringEncoding .
Confirm that the value matches the encoding that is used on the database client. Users must also set
the encoding for the Java™ virtual machine. For example, in WebSphere® or WebLogic where Distributed
Marketing is deployed (as opposed to where Campaign is deployed), set JVM encoding to
-Dfile.encoding=CP1252 . |
