Problem Note 36560: Reports are no longer linked after migrating or promoting from SAS® Web Report Studio 3.1 to SAS Web Report Studio 4.2
 |  |  |  |
In a SAS Web Report Studio 3.1 crosstabulation table, you can create a link that is based on a category data item with an numeric data type. This kind of association is not supported in SAS Web Report Studio 4.2, which means that migrated and promoted reports that use this linking scenario will no longer be linked.
As a workaround, you can edit the expression of the numeric data item to convert it to character. For example, if the data item Age is numeric, you might edit the expression as follows to convert it to character.
strip(put(<<CLASS.Age>>,8.0))
|
Typically, you also will need to modify the prompt in the target report to be a text prompt instead of a numeric prompt.
