  The parameters localFromCodePage is set as blank XML element in
  the ProcessData but when it's being passed to the CopyToService
  it was sometimes being intrepreted as null value (when it
  works) and sometimes being interpreted as blank String (which
  caused failure).
  

Local fix

• STRRTC - 500728
  DW / DW
  Circumvention: None
  

Problem summary

• Users Affected:
  ALL
  
  Problem Description:
  The Connect Direct CopyTo Service requires both LocalToCodePage
  and LocalFromCodePage to be set or unset
  in the service invocation.
  Sometimes an empty string rather than null (no value) is
  passed to the CopyTo Service when the parameters are
  unspecified.
  This inconsistency leads to a MissingParameterException because
  the CopyTo Service consideres one parameter set and the other
  not set.
