SUPPORT / SAMPLES & SAS NOTES
Problem Note 60175: The Score Code Export Node returns "ERROR: ScoreXML: Unable to determine Code variable dependencies. SYSERR= 4"
 |  |  |  |  |
In SAS® Enterprise Miner, the Score Code Export Node might return the following error message:
ERROR: ScoreXML: Unable to determine Code variable dependencies. SYSERR= 4
ERROR: ScoreXML: Terminating because of previous errors. SYSCC= 4
ERROR: ScoreXML: Terminating because of previous errors. SYSCC= 4
These errors occur when the SAS Score Code variable levels include an ampersand enclosed in quotation marks, “&”. For example, the log might include lines like the following:
121 + WHEN ( "A" ) _I11_1 = 1;
MPRINT(SCOREXML): WHEN ( "A" ) _I11_1 = 1;
122 + WHEN ( "B" ) _I11_2 = 1;
MPRINT(SCOREXML): WHEN ( "B" ) _I11_2 = 1;
123 + WHEN ( "C&D &E" ) _I11_3 = 1;
WARNING: Apparent symbolic reference D not resolved.
WARNING: Apparent symbolic reference E not resolved.
MPRINT(SCOREXML): WHEN ( "C&D &E" ) _I11_3 = 1;
124 + WHEN ( "F" ) _I11_4 = 1;
MPRINT(SCOREXML): WHEN ( "F" ) _I11_4 = 1;
125 + WHEN ( "G" ) _I11_5 = 1;
MPRINT(SCOREXML): WHEN ( "G" ) _I11_5 = 1;
126 + WHEN ( "H" ) _I11_6 = 1;
MPRINT(SCOREXML): WHEN ( "H" ) _I11_6 = 1;
127 + OTHERWISE DO;
MPRINT(SCOREXML): OTHERWISE DO;
MPRINT(SCOREXML): WHEN ( "A" ) _I11_1 = 1;
122 + WHEN ( "B" ) _I11_2 = 1;
MPRINT(SCOREXML): WHEN ( "B" ) _I11_2 = 1;
123 + WHEN ( "C&D &E" ) _I11_3 = 1;
WARNING: Apparent symbolic reference D not resolved.
WARNING: Apparent symbolic reference E not resolved.
MPRINT(SCOREXML): WHEN ( "C&D &E" ) _I11_3 = 1;
124 + WHEN ( "F" ) _I11_4 = 1;
MPRINT(SCOREXML): WHEN ( "F" ) _I11_4 = 1;
125 + WHEN ( "G" ) _I11_5 = 1;
MPRINT(SCOREXML): WHEN ( "G" ) _I11_5 = 1;
126 + WHEN ( "H" ) _I11_6 = 1;
MPRINT(SCOREXML): WHEN ( "H" ) _I11_6 = 1;
127 + OTHERWISE DO;
MPRINT(SCOREXML): OTHERWISE DO;
If the log includes such lines, then the following errors occur at the bottom of the log:
ERROR: ScoreXML: Unable to determine Code variable dependencies. SYSERR= 4 ERROR: ScoreXML: Terminating because of previous errors. SYSCC= 4
The workaround is to remove the ampersand from the original data and replace it with another character (for example, a plus sign (+)). Ampersands are typically used in SAS® Macro coding and using them as character values in a SAS data set might return unexpected results.
