Problem Note 33278: Some scenarios might truncate party, account, or branch numbers when the sourced data contains blanks
In some scenarios, the code makes lists of certain variables using a space as
a separator. If you source the data with spaces in these data
fields, the use of scan functions could provide incorrect or no matches.
The following fields are affected:
- Party_number
- Account_number
- Street_state_code
- Branch_number
The following scenarios might generate this behavior:
- sas10001.sas
- sas10011.sas
- sas10012.sas
- sas10015.sas
- sas10016.sas
- sas10017.sas
- sas10026.sas
- sas10027.sas
- sas10028.sas
- sas10029.sas
- sas10083.sas
A hot fix is planned for this issue.

If there are spaces in the parameter data, then truncation may occur to the party, account, or branch numbers. If this occurs then the scenario may generate erroneous results.
