Problem Note 20057: The APPEND procedure fails when you run the ADD_HISTORIC_TARGET module
When you run the ADD_HISTORIC_TARGET module in SAS® Anti-Money Laundering, SAS might generate the following warning message in the log:
NOTE: Appending MST_NBRS.HIST_NN to MST_NBRS.SAVED_NN.
WARNING: Variable XXX has different lengths on BASE and DATA files (BASE 3 DATA 8).
The warning is issued because the character lengths are different
between the mst_nbrs.saved_nn and mst_nbrs.hist_nn data sets. The PROC
APPEND in the ADD_HISTORIC_TARGET.SAS program needs a FORCE option or
LENGTH statement.
Select the Hot Fix tab in this note to access the hot fix for this issue.
