Problem Note 59797: When you use multiple threads, missing values might occur for the scenario name
 |  |  |  |  |
In SAS® High-Performance Risk, the data lookup of scenarios reuses a buffer across all threads, which leads to intermittent missing values for the scenario name. This issue occurs under the following conditions.
- More than one thread is being run.
- The LOADDATA argument is specified for TASK=STRESS and the SCENARIOANALYSISDATA statement in the HPRISK procedure.
- The price / score method calls either READ_VALUE or READ_SCENARIO_CF.
When this issue occurs, either the SCENARIO_CF data set or the VALUEDATA data set has missing SCENARIO_NAME values.
