Problem Note 57697: All SAS® Real-Time Decision Manager model definitions are incorrectly created with the character data type
 |  |  |  |  |
In SAS® Model Manager, you can build projects that hold models that produce a single score from many data inputs. You can define a model process that is based on the model and use that model process in SAS Real-Time Decision Manager campaigns.
The Model Manager project on which your model is based can have variables that are defined as character or numeric. However, when you encounter this issue, all variables are incorrectly identified as character. To be used in campaigns, some of the model definition variables need to have a numeric data type.
This problem occurs after you update the SAS Real-Time Decision Manager system to the third maintenance release for SAS® 9.4 (TS1M3). This SAS maintenance release includes SAS Model Manager version 14.1, which is where this issue is introduced.
