I am trying to submit my team’s Entrepreneurship Award on TIMS. I am wondering, are any other teams having problems submitting it? We have been trying for about two weeks to submit our award and we keep getting an error message that reads “Record Data is Invalid” . We have determined that it has something to do with characters, but it isn’t that we are going over the 1,600 on any of the fields… If that was the case we would be getting the on screen notification that we are over characters.
It could be a character that STIMS doesn’t recognize - I’m not sure if it accepts the auto-corrected fractions (like when you type 3/4, it turns into a single character).
It could be some weird, random issue. Our students had a similar issue where our Chairman’s (I think-might have been Entrepreneurship) wouldn’t go through, then instead of ending it with a number and a period (ie. “2400.”), it was changed and went through.
