The MM_RunReports macro in SAS Model Manager might give a syntax error if any of the input variables have an associated format. Here is an example of how the error might appear in the SAS log:

942 data MM_12;
943 length varname binname $32;
944 set MM_12;
945 drop OCCUPATION;
NOTE: SCL source line.
946 binname = put(OCCUPATION,$13..);
                              _
                              22
                               _
                               200
ERROR 22-322: Syntax error, expecting one of the following: ), -. 
ERROR 200-322: The symbol is not recognized and will be ignored. 

Here are two workarounds for this issue.

• You can exclude the formatted variable from the report by adding the variable to the _MM_DropVars macro variable in the mm_jobs.project DATA step:

  %let _MM_DropVars= <formatted variable>;
• Add the formatted variable to the drop list in the mm_job.ReportDef DATA step in the characteristic section.
