Problem Note 31492: SAS® Foundation USERTAB (DBCSTAB) will not be used on TKNLS transcoding with some encodings
In SAS® 9.2, when the following encoding values are specified, SAS Foundation TRANTAB will be not used for TKNLS transcoding (SAS Foundation DBCSTAB will not work)
- Japanese: U_IBM942_CE, U_MS932_CE, U_MACOS1_CE
- Korean: U_MS949_CE, U_MACOS3_CE
- Chinese: U_MS936_CE, U_MACIS25_CE, U_DEC_CN_CE
- Taiwanese:U_BIG5_CE, U_MACOS2_CE, U_DEC_TW_CE
The issue might occur if the specified ENCODING= option value does not
match DBCSTYPE compatibles.
A fix is planned for a future software release.

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.
SAS® Foundation DBCSTAB should work on both WZSS and TKNLS transcodings.
However, in SAS® 9.2, if you specify the ENCODING= options with the values in a DBCS SAS session (for example, of SJIS or PCMS DBCSTYPE), DBCSTAB would not work on TKNLS.
