Hi Team,

we are facing issue with custom fields in SuiteCRM, in any custom text field (data type nvarchar) we enter data like jon & jon and after save in database it saved as jon & jon. The same data exported with reports as well.

do you have any solution to fix this issue.

Thanks & Regards,
Deepak Maske

It’s possible. You can decode using function html_entity_decode for this field.
I think that you can write function convertField($fieldValue, $fieldDef) in your module. And don’t forget call parent function.
