Problem Note 58897: The X12 and X13 procedures write incorrect variable names to the OUT= data set when using the French locale

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It

PROC X12 and PROC X13 write incorrect variable names to the OUT= data set when running SAS® software in the French locale. No error or warning messages are generated, but a PROC PRINT or PROC CONTENTS of the OUT= data set reveals the unexpected variable names.

For example, if you run the code below in the French locale, then the OUT= data set contains the variables, AIR_A1, AIR_D13, AIR_D11F, AIR_E1, and AIR_E2:

proc x12 data=sashelp.air date=date; var air; arima model=( (0,1,1)(0,1,1) ); x11 mode = add; output out=out a1 d10 d11 d12 d13; run; proc contents data=out; run;

The expected variables, based on the tables requested in the OUTPUT statement, are AIR_A1, AIR_D10, AIR_D11, AIR_D12, and AIR_D13.
