SAS/ACCESS Interface to Sybase
passes the following SAS functions to Sybase for processing if the
DBMS driver or client that you are using supports the function. Where
the Sybase function name differs from the SAS function name, the Sybase
name appears in parentheses. See
Passing Functions to the DBMS Using PROC SQL for information.

SQL_FUNCTIONS=ALL allows for SAS functions that have slightly different
behavior from corresponding database functions that are passed down
to the database. Only when SQL_FUNCTIONS=ALL can the
SAS/ACCESS engine
also pass these SAS SQL functions to Sybase. Due to incompatibility
in date and time functions between Sybase and SAS, Sybase might not
process them correctly. Check your results to determine whether these
functions are working as expected.
