PROC TRANASSIGN provides a batch method for calculating a Profitability Management model. The ASSIGNMENTRULE= option should allow 4096 characters in the CONDITION field of the Assignment Rule Table.

For software releases that are not yet generally available, the Fixed
Release is the software release in which the problem is planned to be
fixed.
However, if you have a CONDITION with more than 1024 characters, you will see the following error:
Syntax error, expecting one of the following: !, !!, &, (, *, **, +,
-, /, <, <=, <>, =, >, ><, >=, AND, EQ, GE, GT, LE, LT, NE, OR,
THEN, [, ^<, ^=, ^>, {, |, ||, ~<, ~=, ~>.
The error will appear for each CONDITION whose expression is greater than 1024 characters.
