Problem Note 59318: The SAS® Forecast Studio environment drop-down list might display truncated values in the Projects window

DetailsAboutRate It

In SAS Forecast Studio, you might need to access different projects that are located on separate environments. If two or more SAS Forecast Studio environment names differ only by a suffix, then your environment drop-down list in the Projects window might change. As you open and close the Projects window to switch between your projects and environments, the suffix might be incorrectly omitted. (The name that is displayed is truncated.)


To circumvent this issue, use one of the following workarounds:


  • When you encounter truncated values in your environment drop-down list, close your current SAS Forecast Studio session and open a new one.
  • When you create and configure your environments, avoid names that differ only by a suffix.

Examples:


Environment #1 Environment #2
Default Default2
FSEnv1 FSEnv10
Test_a Test_abc
_123 _123456

One environment is named "Default" and another environment is named "Default2." At the start of your SAS Forecast Studio session, the following environment drop-down list is displayed:


correct drop-down list


As you open and close the Projects window to switch between your projects and environments, a changed environment drop-down list is displayed:


incorrect drop-down list
