Problem Note 36138: SAS® Data Integration Studio 4.2 jobs with a period in the name deploy to the scheduling-server deployment directory with truncated program file names
 |  |  |  |
In SAS Data Integration Studio 4.2, a job that is deployed for scheduling produces a program file in the desired scheduling-server deployment directory. If the job name contains an embedded period (.), then the SAS program file name that is created is the truncation of that name to the last period.
For example, a job name that contains one period results in the creation of a file name like the one below:
Job name: Initial 01.99 Cla_Major_Event Program file name: Initial_01.sas
A job name that contains multiple periods results in the creation of a file name like the following:
Job name: Initial 01.99. Cla_Major_Event Program file name: Initial_01.99.sas
