• Key Concepts: 
  Checkpoint mode is a feature of the BC-I18-UNI I18N Unicode Conversion component of SAP. It allows users to save their progress in the middle of a conversion process, so that they can resume the process at a later time. This is especially useful for large-scale conversions that may take a long time to complete. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use checkpoint mode, users must first enable it in the conversion settings. Once enabled, users can save their progress at any point during the conversion process. To resume the process, users can simply select the saved checkpoint and continue from there. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using checkpoint mode, it is important to remember to save your progress regularly. This will ensure that you don't lose any data if something goes wrong during the conversion process. Additionally, it is recommended to save your checkpoints in multiple locations, such as on an external hard drive or cloud storage service.
