Problem Note 11365: Incorrect count is returned when a selection rule or constraint includes a numeric constant larger than 15 digits in the criteria

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It
If you run a selection rule or use a constraint in the SAS Campaign
Management component that references a numeric constant with more than
15 digits, you may receive incorrect counts.

For example, the following selection rule:

        Select Clients  where Client ID = 1234567890123456

where Client ID is defined in the database as a 16 digit numeric field,
may not return the correct count.  The wrong count occurs because the
SQL code generated by Campaign Management incorrectly converts the
constant from the specified value of 1234567890123456 to
1234567890123460, thereby retrieving the wrong (or no) records.
