Problem Note 33278: Some scenarios might truncate party, account, or branch numbers when the sourced data contains blanks

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It

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

Click the Hot Fix tab in this note to access the fix for this issue.

When you apply the hot fix, a semi-colon, rather than a blank, is used as a delimiter between the concatenated variables in a list.
