Problem Note 59415: An error occurs when you run the Extended Customer View (EVC) ETL job in SAS® Customer Experience Analytics

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It

When you run the Extended Customer View extract, transform, and load (ETL) job in SAS Customer Experience Analytics, the ETL job can fail. The job fails when a numeric value exceeds eight digits and is incorrectly converted to a character value and when the job tries to update the ECVrunfile.sas file. When the failure occurs, the following error appears 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: 1.0004E8-1.0004E8
ERROR: The macro CXT_ECVCHKINTEGRITY will stop executing.
ERROR: "Process Run Files" transform detected an err condition.
ERROR: Forcing SAS system to detect error condition.
ERROR: Execution terminated by an ABORT statement at line 1255 column 27. _ERROR_=1 _N_=1
ERROR: Errors printed on page 34.

As a workaround for this problem, follow the steps below.

  1. Click here to access a corrected version of the CXT_ECVCHKINTEGRITY macro. Save the corrected macro to the default sasautos directory: SAS-configuration-directory/Lev1/.../sasautos/.
  2. Execute the failed job (cxt_3400_ecv_CEAUPDATES) and run the ECV flow.
