Problem Note 51535: Generating SAS® Marketing Automation histogram metadata fails when you use a date value with years from 1900-2999

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It

Generating histogram metadata might fail with the following error message shown in the SASMarketingAutomationCore.log:

NOTE: Copying HISTOVAR.HISTOVAR to WORK.HISTOVAR (memtype=DATA).
NOTE: BUFSIZE is not cloned when copying across different engines. System Option
for BUFSIZE was used.
ERROR: The character variable QUERY has too long a value for the WORK library.
ERROR: File WORK.HISTOVAR.DATA has not been saved because copy could not be
completed.

This can occur when you use a DATETIME data item in the Information Map that is used by SAS Marketing Automation and that has values between 01/01/1900 and 12/31/2999, which spans more than 1000 years.
