Usage Note 34283: A SAS® IT Resource Management 3.1.1 aggregation job might fail because it cannot resolve the _ENCODEVALUE macro
A SAS IT Resource Management 3.1.1 aggregation job that executes an information-map transformation prior to an aggregation transformation might fail with the following warning and error:
WARNING: Apparent invocation of macro _ENCODEVALUE not resolved.
ERROR 180-322: Statement is not valid or it is used out of proper order.
This problem usually occurs in aggregation jobs with user-defined tables because of the order of the information map and aggregation transformations. Also, be sure to check the SAS log for file-allocation errors, which might cause the aggregation job to fail prematurely and not define the _ENCODEVALUE macro.
To circumvent this problem for aggregation jobs that are associated with user-defined tables, you must insert the following code at the top of the job to define the _encodeValue macro:
%macro _encodeValue(stringVar);
%if ('&sysscp' eq 'OS') %then %do;
encoding = getoption('ENCODING');
if (encoding not in ('EBCDIC1047','OPEN_ED-1047')) then do;
&stringVar = kcvt(&stringVar,'EBCDIC1047',encoding);
end;
%end;
%mend _encodeValue;
