Problem Note 19816: If a subject ID description contains blank spaces, then one column is created for each word in that description
 |  |  |  |  |
When the subject ID in an information map contains blank spaces, the extract, transform, load (ETL) operation between SAS® Marketing Automation and SAS® Marketing Optimization ETL fails and creates a column for each word in the description.
For example, the description "Surrogate Key For A Unique Client" generates a table that contains one variable for each word:
Variable
======
Surrogate
Key
For
A
Unique
Client
To avoid this problem, do not include blank spaces in your subject ID descriptions.
