Problem Note 12943: PROC MEANS/SUMMARY/REPORT/TABULATE may generate incorrect results on MVS when threading is used

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It
PROC MEANS/SUMMARY/REPORT/TABULATE may generate incorrect results in SAS
9.1 and 9.1.2 when threading is used.

This only happens on mainframe operating systems. The behavior is
inconsistent. Sometimes the differences do not occur or the
differences can change location from run to run.

If the NOTHREADS option is used, either as a system option or as an
option on the PROC statement, the results are correct.

This has been fixed in SAS 9.1.3.
