Usage Note 45992: SAS® BI Dashboard uses the type attribute of data (numeric or character) to determine how the values are used
When using an information map as a data source for SAS BI Dashboard, the definition of a category variable on a numeric column is not honored. Instead, SAS BI Dashboard uses the type attribute of the data (numeric or character) to determine how the values are used. In addition, if a numeric column has a DATE format associated with it, SAS BI Dashboard treats that column as a datetime variable.
