In SAS^® Real-Time Decision Manager, you might encounter the following error message when you attempt to validate a campaign or run test cases:

This error occurs when you use SAS^® Customer Intelligence Studio to create a decision campaign that contains a Filter node, and it occurs under any of the following conditions:

• The Filter node's Data Item criteria value is not (Missing) or (Missing) for character variables.
• The Filter node's Data Item criteria value is not (Missing) or (Missing) for nominal numeric variables.
• The Filter node's Data Item criteria value is not (Missing) or (Missing) for Boolean variables.

The issue does not occur for interval numeric variables or date variables. Therefore, as a workaround, it might be possible to create a calculated data item from your source variable to use in your Filter node.
