In SAS Forecast Analyst Workbench, a project might fail when a modeling project exists for a forecast and you recreate the forecast. When this failure occurs, the plan status changes to "ERROR: in forecasting" and the following error occurs in the log:

ERROR: A character operand was found in the %EVAL function or %IF condition
where a numeric operand is required. The condition was: &table_exist. eq 0 and
&plan_hier_node_tmp1_cnt. > 0
ERROR: The macro DDCF_CREATE_FORECAST_PLAN will stop executing.
MLOGIC(DDCF_CREATE_FORECAST_PLAN):  Ending execution.e.
