Problem Note 37288: Non-integer values used as levels might return incorrect drill-through results for SA®S OLAP cubes
When a formatted, non-integer, numeric variable is used as a level within a SAS OLAP cube, the drill-through result might contain the wrong records.
As a workaround, you can store the formatted value as a character string in the data. To create a character column from a numeric variable and a format, you can use the PUT function as shown in the following example:
data newdata;
set olddate;
newchar = PUT(oldnum, dollar10.2);
run;
