Calcite | Level 5

Are you familiar to the following ERROR? What may cause it? Do you know how to fix it?

ERROR: Some character data was lost during transcoding in the dataset MBC301.A04AE. Either the

       data contains characters that are not representable in the new encoding or truncation

       occurred during transcoding.

Thanks a lot
