Known issues – Student names including diacritic symbols Known issue: Students with diacritic symbols (e.g. accent, graves, etc.) within their name are not being uploaded into EUCLID due to a bug. 'The name in the file (BRÊWN J) doesn't match the name held in EUCLID (BRÊWN J) for S1234567/1' Where this error occurs import the XML file into the EUCLID XML Results template and then re-export the XML file. The formatting will resolve the validation error.

  15. Known issues – Internet Explorer issue Known issue: The Mark Entry software is not currently compatible with the Internet Explorer browser – producing an error on upload. Google Chrome & Firefox work without error when using the new Mark Entry software.
